Weather thread 2015

Now raining heavily in Glastonbury. Hope it misses the site.

 

No it hasn't but to be fair the ground is rock hard and needs some softening else your tent pegs won't go in.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Wow these forecasts are exciting. Dry Wednesday and Thursday is most important for me. I think the only time it hasn't rained on Thursday for me was 2010!

I'd never wear flip flops round the site though. My friend sliced her foot open on a rock that way. Just saying. Trainers when out and about for me!

[The Placid Casual]

Rain today is perfect really if it's dry all Tuesday and Wednesday. The ground will dry up but not to the extent where your tent pegs will refuse to stick in.

 

You can thank me later for this awesome post.

Just to add to the previous reports guys, it's going to be predominately cloudy - so quite muggy by the look of it.

If we are looking at 30 degrees and 2010 again, I am genuinely fearing ending up in hospital or its going to need to be a sober one over the weekend.

I am fucking fuming. Please can those temps drop a little bit?!

Edit: if Briddj prediction of 21/23 comes true, I can deal with that. 23 is a bit warmer than I'd want, but I can deal with it.

 

Now showing 24 for the Friday... I agree it doesn't want to be any higher as 24 would be the temp in the shade.

The Norwegians reckon 2.1mm rain all festival. I'd be amazed if we didn't get a bit more than that.

Hopefully our ladies national football team don't beat them tonight then, and they start plotting weather forecast related revenge against us!!!

Peace talks have taken place with Norway and the Norweigians are now our friends. We have decided to unite against the common enemy, the judean's people's front (AKA The Mirror).

[RossTC]

Just drove past the site, absolutely pissing it down! But thats fine with me today! 

[Spindles]

Looks like a couple of hours more rain at worst - excited to see what's left on the ground by tonight

Good afternoon temps and a half decent wind should take care of it in that case.

[A Guy Called Matt]

It looks fantastic - the next BBC video update will be out 1.30pm ish and should go right through the weekend too.

You mean the people's judean front, right?!

Aptly named, Wetter is the only site forecasting more than 5mm of rain over the course of the festival. The average is a tiny 1.6mm, which is lower than it was at this stage in 2013.

Great stuff Pedmills .. Thanks for all your work these past couple of weeks!

Can we not average out the 'Wetter' forecast with the all new 'Drier' forecast - a self created forecast brought to you by a team of efestiavls weather experts, who predict that there will be 0.0mm of rain across the festival?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE STICK

Everytime a headliner pulls out on the Friday, Glastonbury will be sunny.

Netweather gods are predicting precisely ZERO mm of rain for the entire festival, at this rate we are going to be a 1 on the dustbowl mudbath rating

Am currently sat in Yeovil (about 20 miles away apparently) Rain is falling but it's certainly not heavy and appears to be easing off.
