The met office can only predict the weather to 60% accuracy (60% is low as it is) within 3 days. So basically, it's guess work right until we get there. Don't worry about it. It'll be great regardless.

Something more positive in AWD's update today on the Netweather Glastonbury Forecast thread :

http://forum.netweather.tv/topic/76531-glastonbury-wed-26-to-sun-30-june-2013/?p=2710824

ETA : Apols, I've /topic/174206-weather/?p=4055200">been beaten to it!

Cautiously semi positive right now, although that will doubtless chop and change wildly over coming days.

More than one of you earlier posted that 2008 and 2009 type conditions (ie mixed. but much more plusses than minusses) seem more likely than either 2007 mudbath or 2010 dustbowl type.

I think that's realistic for the time being. Let's hope though that AWD's hints at better than that, really do confirm themselves and that proper HP influence for late June really does come to fruition and isn't just a transient phenomenon ...

Be aware too that the Met Office (on which most TV forecasts are based, that includes the BBC's weekly updates on Mondays for the four-week outlook) have tended (IMO, at least!) to err more on the side of caution/difference-splitting. The wider range of modelling seem to me to include a wider range of positives and negatives than the above two allow for sometimes .....

I'm in agreement with some I think a 2008/09 could well happen with rain on one night causing a bit of mud, but hopefully dry and fine the rest of the time.

Luckily it doesn't look like anything of the recent 2007/11 festivals will happen!

The beeb right now has got Pilton 18th/19th/20th as dry and warm, 20-22 degrees. I know from experience the beebs two week forecasts are a tad overexcited sometimes so I won't be taking this as gospel but at those temps and lack of rain I'd stick.

      Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.

      Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely.

      Tramlines 2026

      By sheffinghell · Posted

      I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city!
