Anyone else starting to find it difficult to stay off this thread when you should be working...?

That is my site of choice, outside of the weather gods, though it can and does change drastically overnight at times.

I have wondered myself this week but I'm moving departments when I get back anyway so everyone knows I'm a bit "meh"

J10 report imminent?

[julesangel]

usually around 9 pm, I'm on tenterhooks - I'm sure it's going to be more positive today.

[stuartbert two hats]

It's up. Back to a 5

Summary

Positives
The GFS runs and ensembles are more drier than yesterday
Pressure is forecast to be higher than yesterday

Neutral
The Upper Charts keep an upper ridge close to the UK
he GFS and Ensembles although drier than yesterday, and not completely dry
ECM has high pressure to start which slowly weakens over the festival

Negatives
Not many today especially compared to recent runs

A reversal since yesterday and the score improves back to 5.0 and solely on today's runs it be better than that again, bit keeping at 5.0 on a trend basis. 0=Dustbowl, 10 = Heatwave Scale

[Pink_Tequila]

The latest ECM charts are very good. I envisage an improving picture and a potential heatwave from The Wednesday onwards. I would imagine an improvement this evening from JackOne to a 4

Edit... It's out! I'm more positive than that!

I don't get it....if 0 = dustbowl and 10 = heatwave what score = lashing down?

[fred quimby]

Loving Jacks report today

[julesangel]

negatives - 'not many today' WOOOOHHHOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm lovin it, lovin it, lovin it, lovin it.

[julesangel]

I don't get it....if 0 = dustbowl and 10 = heatwave what score = lashing down?

should say 0 = dustbowl and 10 = mudbath

People need to heed the advice from Winston Wolfe and not get ahead of themselves.

What are you complaining about?! That's my kind of scale!

[tumbles]

Thing is with J10 and no disrespect to him as I love what he does but he's not taking into account the current weather regarding 10=mud bath. It would have to be a heck of a lot of a rain given the current ground conditions. Last year we had plenty of rain on Thurs and barely touched the site

[parsonjack]

What are you complaining about?! That's my kind of scale!

Well exactly. If that was the scale I'll start worrying about something different!

[parsonjack]

So.....if the sun was guaranteed what would you worry about now? Tiny Tea Tent running out of brownies..?

To be fair to him, he has admitted before that having never been to Glastonbury he doesnt have a great idea exactly what effect the weather has on conditions. A better scale might be Washout to Heatwave

I think he means 10= mudbath.
