Says light rain from 1500-2100 when I look at BBC for Pilton. Be right anyway 1 drop of rain can count as light rain.

. Make sure you take some warm clothes and perhaps don't leave the willies behind - they may well be needed!

Light rain in the area does not necessarily mean at Worthy. Due to the topology of the area Pilton often gets different weather than Shepton and Wells. We are on the side of the Mendips and the top of the hill gets worse weather than we do. Think micro climates and stop worrying,

His advice is that once you are on the ground deal with it, weather happens everyday. If in doubt at any stage during the proceedings, lay on your back as close to someone as possible and lick your own gentials.

Great advice - well done Bigdog

Looking like heavy rain Thursday night now, I'm thinking I'll need my boots for friday morning alone, rest of weekend looks fine

[briddj]

I've just looked around the forecasts. Cloudy and 3mm of rain over Thursday evening and still 20 degrees Friday and Saturday with sunny intervals on Saturday. That is nothing. No need to be a drama queen.

[Mr.Tickle]

No, I agree, was I being a drama queen!? *confusedface*

[briddj]

It's not heavy rain.

[briddj]

It's not heavy rain.

[briddj]

Is there an echo in here?

[danbailey80]

come jacko, give us what we want..

[Mr.Tickle]

That's what the BBC forecast said, I give up, I wasn't winging, quite the opposite, at least I didn't just post NFR NFC 50 times

[ink1ing]

The met office is giving heavy rain on Thursday too..

[CaledonianGonzo]

The BBC gets its weather forecasts from the Met Office, but.

There is no question the charts have become less good over the past few days. Most notably for tomorrow, some moderate rainfall can be expected and that is potentially troublesome, in any case any dampness should dry out quickly given the dry ground and the remainder of the festival looking dry.

Despite synoptically not looking as good for the weekend, conditions should not be too bad, dry and bright and getting better as each day progresses, also overnight temps are not likely to be too low either.

Ratings :-

Yesterday in brackets

Festival Dryness (0= washout, 10=dry) 6/10 (7/10) Thursday now shows some moderate rain, however apart from this mostly dry.

[KINGBURROW]

Yes local forecast predict rain from 5pm. Hopefully as ground is very dry down here it shouldnt churn up too much

people, people, people, please stop this obsession because it isn't healthy. I had my breakfast in the garden this morning to enjoy the Pilton sunshine. If it rains, it rains. Deal with it and move on. The ground is harder than bigdog and the local forecast from the ever pessimistic BBC is for some rain in the SW. It is not going to be 2007 and not 2010, it will be Glastonbury so stop worrying and fecking enjoy it.
