Today's update

Metcheck are forecasting 0.6mm on the monday, 3.6mm on the tuesday, 7.7mm on the wednesday, 1.1mm on the thursday, 3.2mm on the friday, 3.2mm on the saturday, 0.4mm on the sunday.

= Not great but could be a lot worse - showers here and there.

Accuweather are forecasting 0mm on the monday, 1mm on the tuesday, 0mm on the wednesday, 0mm on the thursday, 7mm on the friday, 0mm on the saturday, 0mm on the sunday.

= A very dry festival, except for showers on Friday.

Netweather say there will be 0mm on monday, 0mm on tuesday, maybe some showers on wednesday, some showers on thursday, maybe some showers on friday, maybe some showers on saturday, maybe some showers on sunday.

= Not too bad, showers here and there.

The Weather Outlook forecast 8.1mm on the monday, 3.6mm on the tuesday , 0mm on the wednesday, 0mm on the thursday, 0mm on the friday, 3.6mm on the saturday, 6mm on the sunday.

= Some showers at the end, but mostly dry.

The BBC say it will drier and brighter in the south but with bands of light rain.

The Met Office says the west of the country will start drier but then get wetter.

The Weather Channel say that there is a 20% chain of rain on monday, 10% on tuesday, 10% on wednesday, 0% on Thursday, 10% on friday - no forecasts after that yet.

yr.no forecast 0.5mm on monday, 0mm on tuesday, 1.4mm on wednesday, 1.3mm on Thursday, 7.7mm - no forecast after that yet.

Weather Online won't release the 14-day forecasts for local areas for free, but for London they forecast 0mm until sunday which has 0.3mm.

Weather-wherever forecast 0mm on monday, 0mm on tuesday, 0mm on wednesday, 0mm on thursday, 0mm on friday, 0.4mm on Saturday, 0mm on Sunday.

= A completely dry festival.

Conclusion: Worse than yesterday’s forecasts, but still not too bad. Light showers are predicted, but they shouldn’t cause much of a mudbath. :)

I'll keep doing these summaries every day to save everyone from scrawling around different sites.

There are some interesting mud related comments on today's Glasto message about peeing, which give us an update on how dry the ground is at the moment...:

"...The river running through Worthy Farm is running low because of the lack of rain.

The heat has dried the land around which means pee will enter the river more quickly, which would be bad because urine produces ammonia which starves the rivers of oxygen. Any changes to the water chemistry has a negative impact on fresh water fish and other species which are sensitive to change."

A now to make things ultra-nerdy - I've even made a graph:

The trendline (the dotted black line) is essentially meaningless - but isn't it nice how it points downwards...? :P

    • mmm... i note there are several derogatory comments about this... not sure what it says about me, but i could spend a happy afternoon here...   Simple Minds, Deacon Blue and Texas are all great live bands.   hell, i'd even be drawn away from the bar to see James Blunt (if only for a bit of a nostalgia trip for his show on the Pyramid that i admit i hugely enjoyed).   still, with all that said - there's no way i'm going to the other end of the country for it...   🙂

    • Have a great festival to those that are going, I cant wait to get there tomorrow!
    • ah i get ya.. Yeah I hate festivals that have that barrier and front section. Roskilde is gonna be the same, which I'm not looking forward to navigating. Like you say, you end up missing other stuff having to get there dead early. Luckily there's not much we're arsed about on at Roskilde though so that wont be such an issue! hahaha    
    • Not directly my expectation but my wishlist   - car seat headrest (it has been way too long these guys did Europe) - death cab for cutie - new constellations - interpol - bush - swimschool - suede - the haunted youth (should have been there this year) - flipturn   and oh yes Yumi Zouma can come any week, day, hour but this is a personal fetish with this band
