Getting Weather obsessed

[mattgimmeshelter]

fuck accuweather has changed now

showers all weekend

please... no

[crazyguy]

Now isn't that better, need to go and pick up some wellies then.

Met check is still showing a pretty positive forecast, but it's still too early to call. Met check on the Wednesday is likely to be the most accurate forecast for the weekend. In the past the site has been so accurate that it's predictions for when there will be a shower has been correct!

[mattgimmeshelter]

that's a better sign then, more recently the forecast has been changing and for the worst

Live about 12 miles from the site, a bit wet today but just ground softening stuff, kinda hope it rains up this weekend leaving a hopefully dry week ahead.

[xdliam]

Live pretty close as well, supposed to rain for the next few days. So even if it doesn't rain during T pretty sure grounds gonna be very soft and probably very muddy by the Sunday.

I don't mind the rain, just 2012 was too much - at the time. Then 2013 was far too hot, dusty and humid. The breezy mist we got on the Saturday night - was like heaven, that's what I like! Enjoyed 2012 a lot more than I did 2013 and I think that's partly due to how funny it is too look back at that weather.

Countryfile weather forecast is usually pretty acurate i think. It's on tonight.

Metcheck looking pretty good right now folks.

Yeah I've just checked too and it's looking fine... As long as it's not constant down pours before it! Can stay cloudy I don't mind that in the slightest

[Angelab0409]

Yeahhhh I wasn't laughing much in 2012, it was brutal!! Again I think last year was brutal too with the dust, a wee shower or some overcast would have been perfect

[nonpareil]

A bit of rain in the lead up will be ideal as long as it stays dry during the festival. Last year was ace but agreed could do with some moisture in the ground to keep the dust down

[mattgimmeshelter]

I honestly don't care if it's a dustbowl

[tori1607]

Dust is fine with me also. Apart from the black muck that was coming out my nose by the end of the weekend.

I have a mate who is a captain in merchant navy and swears by this site for weather, worldwide. He needs reports to be accurate in relation to where he takes ships and when. I also used it last year for Wickerman and it was forecasting rain Sat night, it was a hot and balmy day all day and great weather, I kept on telling folks it would rain at night, no one believed me. Sure enough, 11.30pm, down it came.

This link is from the Bishops Hill weather station, just the other side of Loch Lomond, closest one to T.

Tuesday/Wednesday should start to give us about an accurate picture as we can expect.

Windfinder is the one my mate swears by too, he's a fisherman. Said at Rockness 2011 that the rain would start at 4pm for an hour or so and it was bang on.

As for dust, I wouldn't mind. Had a sand storm at Coachella last year and wasn't thaaat bad.

[harryomatic]

Well that one says 1mm of rain the whole weekend and temperatures of 20 degrees, so I'm happy to believe that for now!

[Angelab0409]

Yeah weathers looking fantastic... Remember your sun cream

Looks like it's going to be a peach this year again! Looking forward to it now, the sun makes a huge difference in the atmosphere. Last year I thought the line up was piss but was one of my favourite weekend's at T due to the weather
