Weather thread 2015

[Zoo Music Girl]

I've been in 2011,13,14. And quite honestly, altered were fine. I must of been more drunk than i thought.

This year will be easy

This. I'd say 2011 was the worst just for that Friday but I really didn't find last year that bad. Maybe I'm getting tougher in my old age.

2010 is the dream obviously but I'd take one of those three years in a heartbeat.

Just to add I've got one eye on the

forecast for Blur in London and it's changing by the hour. That's tomorrow. I won't panic yet.

Met check looks ok this morning.

Some more encouraging charts posted on netweather this morning, think it's gonna be down to the wire, hoping there will be a N/S split when that low comes in (sorry North!) Feeling so bloody anxious about this!

Thank Christ for a wee shift to the positive.

Those new runs are much more positive - no new to panic quite yet.

Also as the site is in a valley, any forecast is pretty unreliable. The place seems to have its own microclimate at times!

The good / bad day on day pattern is still going.

It will look shit tomorrow

Could you make an argument that the flood defences and drainage of the site has improved since then though? So technically we would never see a 97 or 07 again due to the improvements after 07 save for biblical amounts of rain?

 

I don't think so. the defences might mean you won't see a 2005 pennards campsite flood again.  But we had heavy rain for what from memory seemed to be 36 hours straight and no defences can stop that from being  incredibly muddy. That was very unpleasant but then the sun came out and that was miles worse.  The mud all round the site was up to a foot deep and when it stopped raining and it started to dry out it was treacherous.  Sticky mud that deep is truely awful. Give me wet mud any day

 

Saying that, we had a ball and 2007 was probably my second fav year of the eight I have attended  

[nickkkw]

Yep, this mornings runs looking better still. Friday's shitfest has moved forward to a Thursday night spell and has weakened further. All other days look dry or at least with very little rain.

Local forecast for South West saying rain tomorrow and sheeting down on Monday.

[The Placid Casual]

No change in BBC's weather. Would like it to be a tad hotter.

Last night I saw the week ahead thing on the BBC and expected dire forecasts this morning...... but have got poretty damn good one (except Sunday on yr.no)

 

What's changed or is it still they have no idea at all until Bill decides what it wants to do?

[djcolsen]

Sounded like the apocalypse last night, little more positive this morning. is that right or has everyone just come round to the fact that we're proper fucked?

It's 5 stages of loss. We're at bargaining at the moment

Acceptance will never happen until we're forecast 5 days of solid sunshine.

GFS latest runs look much better. Only rain of any note is in the early hours of Friday morning and the high over Greenland that's pushing the bad weather south is breaking down.

I was only looking at the BBC forecast and didn't understand the apocalyptic turn....

 

Jackone seems to be the four horsemen rolled into one though....
