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.

    • Feels like Leeds getting axed is just a matter of time now, and to be honest, it might be the only way to save Reading. The whole twin-site format just feels proper dated and way too expensive to run nowadays. If they scrapped Leeds and focused entirely on Reading, turning it into a proper London-adjacent day-trip fest for the younger crowd like All Points East or Wireless, it would actually make sense financially. But yeah, for the old-school rock crowd, the R&L era is completely dead and buried.
    • Its the obvious  place to find savings but will Ed Miliband play along? Will Labour MP's finally accept benefits cuts? This is as damaging for Reeves as for Starmer. Its hard to see how either survives. Meanwhile Burnham is bringing up WASPI when there is no chance they'll get anything. He'll have to say something about funding defence.
    • Yeah, I managed 2 at once last year but the setup meant 1 per purchase, my partner had to do her one separately using her code   14th Primavera, bring it on!
    • I’m heading to this but need to leave on the Sat. Does anyone have any experience of getting back to the train station without the shuttle bus running? Seems like it might be tricky 
    • and cut net zero of course
