Weather thread 2015

I do think it's hilarious that science can accurately predict the timing of a high tide or a lunar eclipse in four centuries' time, yet it can't reliably tell me whether or not it's going to rain next Wednesday.

 

It's because of butterflies. If you killed all the butterflies, the weather would be like clockwork

In the cycle of good-shite-good-shite weather predictions, thankfully tomorrow will be shite day,so on Sunday when it is the oracle of the One Show prediction it will be a good one and which means we will have stable weather for the festival.

Phil jones is definitely smiling this fine morning

No matter what the weather report says it always rains on the Thursday....

 

2010 being the exception that proves the rule of course

The rain in 2014 made some places unbearable with mud. The other stage was like a lake. I was slipping around everywhere trying to dance to Manics and Pixies.

I watched both of them and don't remember any mud at all. Walked around to other after Plant finished no bother.

So this is it folks, it's come to the point when I almost cry at good weather reports. We are officially excited!

[Mark it Zero!]

I read this:

 

while there is the risk of a shower almost anywhere next week a lot of dry weather will largely supercede the effects of this with temperatures pleasant enough for late June in the South

Sounds perfect weather, stop teasing. I refuse to get my hopes up.

[richroet]

And 2005!

 

I wasn't there in 2005 so doesn't count (to me at least)

[GregsyA]

I am going to interrupt my silent obsessive stalking of this thread to scream 

 

STICK!

 

(back to stalking...)

[Magma]

And 2005!

 

Did that storm not start til after midnight then? That counted as still Thursday for me and it definitely was.... RAIN.

[Fearless_Fish]

I think people need to make a distinction between weather and mud.

 

For example:

 

2005 - weather good, mud bad

2007 - weather bad, mud bad

2008 - weather good, mud good

...

2014 - weather good, mud bad

2015 - ???

when i was little, i always thought it was funny a country called greenland was covered in snow...i once laughed about it for 3 hours straight

the irony i once mused, as i grabbed another rusk...

I actually know Who and why... If you want to know.

Yeah 3am ish I think. Was up in the Stone Circle for the first flash of lightning - big defiant cheer. 2nd (closer) crack a minute later and people scarpered. 

 

We were fucked.

I think we've gone 3-2 up, but there's still 30 minutes left to play... we're wining, possibly too early
