Right now I'm struggling to get some sleep, my bedroom feels like it's 40 degrees. It's hard to imagine next week there might be cold,wet and mud everywhere.

The Sunshine has now shifted from the Tuesday to the Weds, its all shifted on by one day, 11mm of rain in total from Weds-Sun, hopefully it will keep shifting on, as its all sunshine before the festival

BBC has updated their Forecast for the better. Was showing hale on Monday and showers Thursday but currently is predicting both days will be dry.

Overnight ensemble looking nicer

New one rolling out just now but work will interrupt this important business

Christ, I didn't know anyone was predicting hail! We're approaching the time forecasts can expect to become much more accurate. Between this and the Friday night shenanigans, I'm on edge!!

 

Edit: Accuweather now has 'plenty of sunshine' and 23 degrees on the Tuesday before, and 'brilliant sunshine' and 26 degrees on the Tuesday afterwards, but 'overcast' is the best it gets between the two, with a low of eight degrees on the Friday! Surely somebody there is taking the piss.

GFS looks good this morning - despite looking like a rain fest on the friday not many other ensembles agree with it and the high pressure is more dominant - lets hope that theme continues

[djcolsen]

If we completely ignore accuweather as the farce it is how are we looking today? Does it look like we might actually pull it off?

[Starks]

Forecast not looking so hot today

I can live with that

Same here. That looks alright.

[Familiar2billions]

Id stick with that if i could. I dont give a feck about it being overcast or a little chilly, just as little rain as possible please. Chill i can handle, just put on a nice warm dry jumper and life is great. Rain however there is no escaping, said jumper and a coat get drenched.

Dry Weds and Thurs which in my mind are the two days you want dry due to being able to sit on the ground etc.

 

Good run.

I would take cloudy most days though

This....the two exploring and relatively chilled days before it all kicks off!

Exactly. More than happy for it to be muddy on the other days as i'll be stood up watching bands.

Yes, for sure, the later in the week any rain comes the better as far as I'm concerned.

Utterly horrid for those who live in the North yes but the South gets away with any prolonged spells of wet weather.

 

Currently showing a completely dry tues, weds and thurs.

 

Light rain Fri

 

Prolonged rain Saturday but doesn't look like being a complete washout

 

Maybe rain sunday but could escape it

[fightoffyour]

What? No! Stop accepting mud!

For shame, for shame..

[Perks]

Yeah me too.

[sedra]

Light showers or occasional heavy showers are fine- the ground will take it and there will be minimal muddiness. Overnight rain even is ok. It will only be a nightmare if we get solid rain all day or very heavy downpours - I'm more worried about the night temps- looks blinking freezing

[majormajormajor]

But you shouldn't ignore Accuweather. It updates on every GFS run several times a day, which is why it's more volatile. Gives a more accurate lrediciton of the *current* model, not a once-a-day like other sites.

[JoeyT]

To put how much rainfall we're forecasted for the next 10 days in to perspective here are the accumulations of precipitation by area over said period....Hardly a drop.
