The guy who does the daily report on netwether at 8am has a website here.

 

http://www.norton-radstockweather.co.uk/Model-Analysis(2859336).htm

 

He is also based in Somerset (about 10 miles up the road from Worthy Farm) so definitely worth keeping an eye on! 

 

Bizarre thing is on looking he actually lives in Radstock which is where I live.

 

Therefore he gets my backing 100%*

 

 

*unless he goes all negative on us.

I'm confused. Most of the weather sites have a better outlook today than yesterday. Saturday seems unanimously to be a bad day, from about 6pm onwards until the early morning.

 

Yesterday only 45% of the days were predicted to be Sunny from a cross section of the websites available. Today it's back up to 51%. An upward trend.

The graph plots the amount of rainfall over the festival, so a downward trend on the graph equals a upward trend on morale in this forum.

The basic template for glastonbury weather seems to be: dry Wednesday, starts raining late Thursday/early friday, stops raining on Saturday and then hot and sunny on Sunday

Looking at the BBC weather website (I am not up to speed with all these newfangled accu-wotsits, netcheckers or bigdogs) I would love it to be 18/19C, cloudy and dry. I don't go to Glastonbury to get a tan so a comfortable temp like that would be perfect.

 

Too hot = Too much work

Wet = Too much work

To windy = Too much work

 

I am lazy as hell.

    • I too am always a bit blurred on what/who constitutes a legend slot but would Sting fit that bill?  Those there said his IoW slot was v good and he has enough of a songbook imo for a Sun afternoon if he uses the Police's 1st 2 albums for a fair chunk of it      
    • Thing is, I'd have said that as well.   But then she inexplicably ended up on the Wilderness lineup and that changes everything. I reckon if that goes well, which it will, then she's very much in the picture.
    • This has probably been discussed a hundred times already on efests but what constitutes a legend? I know some of it is my age but I don't see eurithmics or Duran Duran as legend status. Neil young or nils lofgren then yes and neither of them have overly troubled the charts. Duran Duran and indeed the eurithmics I would put in the 80s category and whilst it would be ok (human league at isle of wight we're fabulous) they just arent in my mind legend status.  Zombies played same festival- i would take that. 
    • friendly tonight delayed , pitch draining pretty quick to be fair .... not sure it bodes well for other games with potential fixture backlog 
    • Never happen, but an Annie Lennox solo or Eurythmics reunion would make me very happy.
