Looks like we're in for a bit of bad weather from Thursday through to Sunday,they say its going to clear up after that but they have no idea really that far ahead.

I'm starting to shit it!

Have just driven past the main entrance on my way home. Great clouds of dust being blown up by the seemingly never-ending stream of HGV's I see going in every time I pass.

Rain is predicted by the majority from Thursday to Sunday yes .. But we'll just have to wait and see how much it does actually rain. Light showers here and there shouldn't do too much damage as photos from the site show it looks reasonably dry.

Predicting rain means that it's likely to rain at some point but is far from specific about length and quantity. That's my hope. And them a heatwave from Monday for a week .. Perfect.

It's going to be a close one. Hold on tight everybody this is gonna be one hell of a ride.

Local weather forecast on the TV just now predicts heavy rain on Thursday with 'localised problems'. Continuing wet on Friday and Saturday but getting better next week.

Looks like us locals are taking one for the team this week.

I'm a wreck reading this.

Yesterday I was convinced to the core that it was going to be glorious sunshine all the way.

Today I've nosedived and I'm now worried about drowning on site.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring with my Bi-polar weather disorder.

Not looking forward to Jackones update tonight, some shocking runs being put out on netweather forums putting a low directly over the UK for the whole Glastonbury weekend. Thankfully I don't know how to interpret weather charts, but it did look particularly shit!

'Pant wetting' is a very good description of myself when I saw it! I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens over the next few days (as if we could do anything else!)

This is one hell of a roller-coaster.

We have gone from bad to good and back to bad again in less than 12 hours.

If it's any encouragement, the site (as of Saturday) was looking waaay better than 2011.

That year, same day, it was in a dire state. A few build teams soldiering on whilst most had just hunkered down.

This year it was cracked earth in many places, and just a few pools of water from some showers. More will have landed Sunday, but it'll still be in better shape than last time.

If it's just a few bits of rain between now and gates opening, it should be pretty good as a starting point.

It will be fine.

So many people panicking and worried in here.

[howlin_pete]

Jackone is usually more pessimistic than optimistic, so not expecting much better from him tonight! Might just write tonight off and hope tomorrow brings better news!

[tumbles]

What will be will be. It seems to swing from good to bad every 12 hours at moment.

I think the weather reporters that report bad weather are bitter cos they didn't get tickets to the festival!! It keeps changing hourly

I stare at this for 23 hrs and 20 mins every day:
