LOLgraphe4_1000_227_165___.gifThe ensembles don't deny it... definitely in with a chance. fair few plumping for no low too though. It remains defiantly, stubbornly and quite unfairly all to play for.Bastards.

Just tell me what seems most likely, please? I am begging as I have no idea what is happening in this thread.

No - the simple answer is take everything.

Otherwise it's a set of possibilities, that's all it is. Read and learn, why not?

With hindsight, we should have started the predicting the weather for the following week a month or two ago and then seen how accurate each forecast was over those weeks. At least then we'd have had 6-8 weeks of 'forecast and outcome' to judge whether they are broadly accurate a week out (and we now need to get depressed) or whether they are fairly inaccurate (and we can all start hoping).

Still, bit late now I suppose!

Damn it, no idea how to post a video clip. just google.....

' leslie nielsen quotes we re all counting on you'

likewise! its been taken over by amateur meteorologists/people with a graph fetish it seems ....I wouldnt mind but common sense says the most accurate forecast is going to be only 1/2 days beforehand and anything else is pointless anyways. Tuesdays weather forecasts will be the ones that matter

Then go away and come back then.

How disinterested you are in the forecasts now doesn't really add much

Weather keeps changing all the time, all i can really see is its going to be dryer than last year, and slighley cooler, which is good in my eyes, as i dont think 2014 was that bad, when it rained it came down abit, but sun dried it up, had a great time anyway

someones got there knickers in a twist....I was simply expressing how baffling most of these graphs are to people not `into it`

 

They are explained fairly regularly and there are text forecasts posted often. Sorry that not every bit of data comes with an in depth analysis.

 

Basically, some models are saying it will be ok, but there are a few now predicting the end of the world or something even worse: 2007.

2014 was defo bad at times. I remember trying to walk from pyramid to other (beat hotel way) after jack White last year. Every step I was nearly over...and I was relatively sober...it was a mess at that point.

ok I can see im pissing off the amateur scientist lot here, ill be silent :) (itll rain) :P

 

Nothing wrong with asking questions and trying to learn what's going on, you just caught us all at a bad moment with that latest run and then you insult the graphs. Hang around for a bit and you'll soon pick up what's going on.

Met Office lastest

 

UK Outlook for Tuesday 23 Jun 2015 to Thursday 2 Jul 2015:

A drier, brighter interlude for most on Tuesday and Wednesday with somewhat warmer conditions expected, although there is still a risk of slow moving showers, mainly in the south. From Thursday onwards, northern and western parts will tend to be cooler and windier with showers or longer spells of rain at times, whereas southern and most eastern areas are more likely to hold onto warmer, drier weather at times, but even across the southeast intervals of occasional rain and stronger winds seem likely at times. There is a possibility that a more generally settled picture to develop across the whole UK towards the start of July, but confidence in any detail is low at this stage.

They're not that baffling are they? Even with my limited knowledge (pressure stays high = good, pressure drops = bad) I can understand most of the charts to an extent.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
