Over all five days.

That is absolutely bugger all...

Loving all thd Arrested Development memes. I'm currently going back through the lot. Brilliant show.

Festival should have been this weekend people.

[justperfect]

If thats over 5 days id be more than happy.

I perspired 10mm of sweat last year on the sunday during kenny rogers and the ground handled it extremely well. I was even able to sit down for the third encore of the gambler.

Be positive folks..

Put a smile on your dial its glasto in only 3 days !

We are on a site which has invested hundreds of thousands of pounds into drainage though

You can't control nature.

Over all five days.

That's what I thought, but didn't dare hope. Bugger all indeed! In 2007, I think that fell every couple of hours.

My street doesn't get muddy.

Be positive people, one day last week where I live the forecast predicted three hours of solid rain.........we didn't get a single drop, the weather will be what it is and we'll have a great time no matter what .

Friday looks bad.

[Swine_Glasto2014]

The whole weekend looks bad now. Enjoy Eednesday

It looks worse as it goes on, but at least most agree it'll be dry when our tents go up which is important. It does look pretty dismal on the Monday when we take them down again though. I hope that doesn't lead to many people abandoning their stuff but it must be a factor.

If it had been this weekend it would have probably been the perfect possible weather.

As it is - Met office predictions going down hill rapidly. First time they've used the words "heavy and thundery" in their outlook for next weekend.

So weather thread is in just about the same situation as the Friday Other Stage Opener thread, so much surprise held in store for us at G this year! I like it.

At the end of day once we're all there we'll get on with it and have a great time whatsoever. It just dampens the build up a smidge and makes packing even more of a nightmare, can't decide if its new waterproof time...

[GlastoSimon]

It's basically 'feck knows' until we get there.

[Pink_Tequila]

"Outbreaks of rain affecting many parts at first on Friday, easing later in the day. Otherwise, rather cloudy with showers developing, these becoming locally heavy and thundery, mainly across central parts"

that is not going down rapidly and locally in the southwest it could be mainly dry.

Goes on to say "the south and southeast should continue to see the best of the drier, brighter weather and consequently, the highest temperatures, rising above the seasonal average at times.
