It'll be fine.

Normally I have to really nag my other half to bring wellies to Glasto as he hates wearing them and will only wear them in mudbath conditions.

After seeing Countryfile, he has just voluntarily gone and got his wellies out of the shed and put them on the packing pile.

Yes but its only NOS so it doesnt count as a proper high.

Heh heh heh. That made me chuckle

[sjseabass]

If it pisses it down on Friday night and Arcade Fire are thus considered a small crowd 'failure' I think I might cry. Fucking weather gods. I've never looked forward to a gig as much as that one and I want it to be perfect

[Bubblecup]

it still disagrees with almost every other weather site on the whole entire internet, we know there is a chance of some showers, we know the showers will probably be little

Did you see that massive high pressure thingy on friday????

[Mr.Tease]

Argh, I need a forget-me-now!

[Keva]

The Monday after is what I'm concerned about. Rain will make putting the tent away a bit of a bugger and I suspect, lead to a lot of people abandoning their tents when they leave

[Mr_Grump]

At least it looks dry for putting the tent up on Wednesday morning...nothing worse that putting it up in the rain!

[drewsstrat]

Ok now the beeb has sat on the fence lets get back to the actual

Wednesday scattered cloud but lots of SUN

Thursday cloud cover but no rain

Friday chance of light rain , still sun though precipation 0.13inch

Saturday chance of light rain in afternoon / early evening 0.04inch. , wind max 15mph

Perfect for my favourite headliners

Sunday scattered clouds but again blue sky , and no rain!! Bit more optimistic than the doomcountryfile

It isn't, half the time it's completely different to the Met forecast and by no means is the Met forecast the "most trustworthy" forecast going

The BBC use the met office for their forecasts. The BBCs broadcast meteorologists are MET office employees ffs. I'm not making this up, it's fact.

[Yesiamaduck]

Just checked the internet and every weather forecast and they're no longer predicting rain

To save yourselves the hassle don't bother looking and trust me on this... okay... they said it'll be like this weekend but with more cider.

[frostypaw]

So basically they still don't know. Grand, I'm going to stay on the positive side of the spectrum!

Too damn right!

To be honest, I am far more concerned about having a good time when I am at the festival rather than if people leave abandoned tents afterwards.

I realise this, but their forecasts often differ from the Met Office. I'm a cameraman who films a LOT of outside events over the summer and I've done so for 20 years, watching the weather is part of my job and based on this experience I know that the BBC forecasts are often not very good at all.

This is getting pretty funny

This is getting pretty funny

That's why we love it

Though we love it more on the settled years

Much calmer and more optimistic over on netweather. I swear the BBC have been over cautious ever since the Big Storm

[ItsBadForYa]

Accuweather looks fairly positive too.

A few showers here and there, but also plenty of sun.

[justperfect]

I bought gaiters today. My first ever pair. Im not bothering with the wellies this time round..

I hope my disission will be vindicated

[majormajormajor]

There's gonna be a blip towards the end of the week with showers, then the weekend will be settled. That's my prediction.

[chazwwe]

Accuweather are saying Thunder storms on Thursday....

[julesangel]

Yes, but only a 40% chance of that and even then only 5mm of rain. Not really worth mentioning tbh

[elbongo]

Your all mental... which makes me mental. I can't bare to look. I actually peek through fingers when looking. Every 2 minutes this happens and me son thinks I'm losing the plot.

Which I am and every year this is the same I swear...
