frostypaw Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Usual shakier overnight run to keep our nerves jangling. Still nothing terrible but some rain just before the festival and over the weekend - ensembles as ever just after I go to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st dan Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 BBC has taken a dramatic turn for the better .. Does this tend to be fairly accurate? I see some people have great faith in this source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennyhana22 Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I'm as guilty as any in proclaiming any good forecast as gospel, and bad ones as mumbo jumbo. But, I really DO trust BBC Weather. Not infallible, of course, but pretty damn accurate. Only problem is it is updated so frequently that, like them all, it only counts a short time ahead...

Aragorn Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 GFS not nice this morning - rain a plentry through Friday Best wait for ensembles to see if any agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) panic over - its somewhat of an outlier loking at the 00z ensembles in terms of rain Definitely looks like rain pre festival on the Monday though Edited June 18, 2015 by Aragorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbongo Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) Easy now Aragorn... Easy. You'll cause a panic with that unadulterated scaremongering. NFRNFC That's better Edited June 18, 2015 by elbongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see some people have great faith in this source. They forecast monsoon like conditions with thunder and lightning last Friday. All we got was a bit of drizzle.

JoBalls Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) With less than a week to go, forecasts are going to start getting more accurate. I'm nervous!! Already set the planner for Countryfile on Sunday... Edited June 18, 2015 by JoBalls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swine_Glasto2014 Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) I live on a boat and luckily haven't got a tv reception at the moment,so will not be able too see the Countryfile forcast. Unfortunately I do get one bar of 4G so will be nervously checking here instead Edited June 18, 2015 by Swine_Glasto2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stopwn1981 Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 One thing is absolutely certain between next Wednesday and Monday - there will be rain at Glastonbury. The make or break is how much...and we just won't know the answer to that till we're there on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyT Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I'm hopeful of being able to watch countryfile although at the mercy of getting home following a stag do in Brighton so not sure what time i'll be back Hopeful the next set of charts will show some improvement...

st dan Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I asked this question around this time last year, and got some good mixed responses: Theoretically, how much would you pay for the guarantee of no rain over the full duration of the festival? I think right now I'd stretch to £200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 This is the report from a year ago today.
