Maybe gaiters if you have trousers on, but no real need if you're wearing shorts.

Carrol (BBC) just said the rain is heading our way

[Porcelina]

And once again we're still quite a way from Sunday for predictions, giving us valuable time for no r**n.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Carrol (BBC) just said the rain is heading our way

For a spell on Friday afternoon. As predicted.

[rmcoboy]

Wellies packed. Suntan lotion packed. Hayfever tablets packed. Raincoat packed. 2-2. All to play for...

she didn't seem to want to talk about Sat and Sun.

[CaledonianGonzo]

she didn't seem to want to talk about Sat and Sun.

Not for any sinister reasons.

[WS_Jack_III]

Well I've forgot my waterproofs so it better not be bad.

Don an internal waterproof crafted from 8 pints of Burrow Hill taken orally.

[Spindles]

I don't think we have to worry about anything too significant now.  Might be the odd shower over the weekend but I reckon any wetter weather is due the week after now.

Getting annoyed at people in work now .. 'Oh I've heard it's going to be a washout this year isn't it. It said so in The Mirror. Good luck, glad it's not me!"

Sadly, my response of "Pedmills, Briddj, Jackone etc on the efestivals forum have reassured us that it'll all be fine with light showers across Friday and Sunday" has fallen on deaf ears.

everybody automatically assumes it's a washout every year where i work. I keep telling them it's been mostly fine since 07 but every year we go through the same conversation.

Finding myself jumping at rainfall After the festival now - was so ready to see things far worse this morning, but seems to still be alright!

People not packing their waterproofs are mad though - this is still England! Even with all the hard work here things could change between weds and monday - be prepared, and joyous if they're unused

i went on holiday last week and had to pack two lots of stuff and somehow forgot my waterproofs and wellies :0

[Mr Splodge]

Glad festival not next weekend, not looking good next week.

[mr mister]

Ok, so in summary, do I need to buy last minute wellies? I've been trying to avoid doing it for the last 3 days and time is running out.

Ok without them?

I'm not a Glastonbury regular so don't really know what the current forecast means in terms of how it's going to be under foot.

My frame of reference was last year, which was obvious a different story!

So.. Wellies necessary? Or not?

[frostypaw]

So.. Wellies necessary? Or not?

Wellies. Keep for next year.

[theleedslads]

Sod the wellies... bare foot FTW!

It depends what else you've got. If you've got walking boots, I wouldn't worry too much. If you've got your best trainers, i'd go get some wellies

[A Guy Called Matt]

Seen the morning forecast, seen the changes on BBC and yr.no

 

and

 

 

am WELL HAPPY

 

yes there will be some wet stuff but not a lot.

 

The party starts tomorrow folks.

[Mezhyp1]

Met office reporting a 40% chance of light rain between 10am-7pm on Friday on their weekly forecast, as a gambling man, I'm more than willing to take my chance that'll be dry

Don't forget your sunglasses people!!

Had that loads of times

 

Me: "We're off to Glastonbury tomorrow"

Fools: "is that the muddy one"

Me: *despair*

[Glasto Weatherwatch]

Anyone not taking waterproofs and wellies is mental.

I learnt this the hard way in 1998.
