Was onsite Yesterday. The sides of the roads are churned up with plenty of Mud, in place alot. In the fields all green and mainly firm underfoot, great for getting pegs in, much more rain and it'll turn as they had some terrible rain on Saturday, and there is standing water in places. All looks great down there though.

I didn't see anything about the Campervan field, oh and the enterences to the car parks are quite muddy.

Latest update from devonhammer at .. http://forum.netweather.tv/topic/69427-glastonbury-2011/page__st__204

Latest (06z) GFS run has a ridge of high pressure on Friday, but this is forced South because of the high over Greenland and the next low coming off the Atlantic although it does re-establish itself on Saturday afternoon. This could see showers on every day, some heavy, some persistent, although we could see some sunshine on Friday morning, Saturday and Sunday.

At this late stage it is still all to play for as we are caught between a high and a low. I'm sticking with a showery run up until Wednesday followed by a largely dry Thursday to Sunday, but with occasional showers.

The pre-installed weather App on iPhone is saying nice things, hazy sunshine on Friday and Saturday, unsettled up until then though....Apple seem to get just about everything else right, so i'm going with that!

The weather is a bit odd here in Glastobnury [town] at the moment. I can see the big band of rain heading our way on the Met Office charts but it's taking its time. There is no wind to speak of and the temp outside is fairly warm. We still have hazy sunshine. The longer that band of rain takes to arrive the better for ground conditions. At least the site will have had a few hours of warm hazy sunshine type weather to dry it out a bit before the next deluge.

    • its diabolical already 😞 .... The refs should have walked out in solidarity 
    • The main problem with these is that noone really predicts the shocks that happen in the early knockouts or quarters, so it inevitably gets to like what I put in the semis (France v Spain and Eng vs Arg). You always end up with 4/6 of the top sides reaching the semis, and this is with me 'predicting' Swiss to beat Portugal.   I think we will see a shock result against a top 5-6 team of an African/Asian side knocking a favourite out, and I can see one of the big guns resting heavily for a 3rd group game and ending up 2nd place in their group, which would throw these whole brackets out of whack.   I think the main interesting thing from the brackets, is that if you're only caring about 'likely' group winners, you have France/Spain/Germany/Belgium/Netherlands (who I'm not convinced top group F, that group seems v exciting to me), all on one side of the bracket. Albeit the other side is England/Brazil/Arg/Portugal, but the European giants do seem weighted towards one half.   'best 3rd place' is very hard to call, I suspect there might be 1 or 2 who get 6 points (tied with 2nd) but are there on goal difference/head to head, while others could be on 3 or even 2 points. I also don't actually know if a bunch of these middle-Eastern teams who I've predicted to finish bottom are that bad. I think the ConCaCaf lot who've qualified partially by virtue of the 3 strongest teams all being hosts probably are 0-1 point teams mostly, but I wonder if there's some near-Asian teams I'm underestimating.   I'm honestly really excited though.
    • Early Bird tickets at €245 if you’ve been this year. 
    • €225 plus fees (as a 2026 ticketholder and with Revolut) is a crazy good deal.    
    • I don't think PJ has as much broad appeal in the UK as GNR has. Rock listeners will know Alive and Jeremy so on, but which songs would a random person off the street know? With GNR you have Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O Mine and Paradise City to name a few.
