TBF Met Office and BBC forecasts (not the web page which is auto generated) have a good track record over short timeframes in my experience. They first identified the flash flood possibility in 05 then everyone fell into line.

Would not be surprised if Jackone goes for a 6-5 - 7.

Which would be gutting after slight signs of improvement today (also what happened yesterday).

Any change evident in the most recent set of GFS runs?

Every enormous raincloud has a microscopic silver lining - you won't have to put up, or take down your tent in the rain. A small mercy...

[kalifire]

This is true. Monday was looking horrific just a few days ago but seems better now.

Let's be realistic - Glasto 2014 could go either way, weather wise. On one hand we have the slight possibility of showers, on the other we have severe weather warnings. It will be what it will be. With wellies and poncho, sunhat and shades, I'll embrace what I get and look to enjoy myself whatever happens.

At 3m 56s, he inadvertently reveals that there's a giant lady part in the upper atmosphere! Brings a whole new dimension to 'pissing it down'.

The precipitation probability on the Met Office Website for Shepton Mallet is no greater than 60% for the Friday and Saturday. I'm going to be optimistic and hope that we avoid the worse of these showers

[Gnomicide]

Yer but no has improved from earlier today. Now just 7.3mm on the Friday.

the bad weather seems to be moving later and later down the weekend in most forecasts. fingers crossed it continues down this route and we get it right at the end / miss it entirely (clutching at straws so hard my hands bleed)

I'm packing and I still have no idea what to take. Three bags so far ... forecast looks like 4 seasons in 4 days.

That looks spectacular. So Netweather v Met Office basically.

Every time I resign myself to a watery fate, there's juuuust enough of a glimmer of hope.

[Bisque]

That's it, I'm not risking it, I'm packing my "big coat".

I'm packing Stubert's coat. Lots of pockets for carrying stuff.

This thread is getting to much. None of us know a fucking thing!!

It's shit living on a island sometimes.

[dingbat2]

So with less than a day to go we still have no idea what's going to happen with the weather then

... Bit like every other year then!

Lol as the cool kids would say

[CaledonianGonzo]

If things *are* shifting out then why no Friday improvement from the Met Office?

[chestwig]
