Daily mail headquarters rapidly arranging a couple of stunners in bikini's and hunters for glasto photo gallery

[Porcelina]

This is the most stressful thing ever.

I've never been before and I'd only love my first time to be one of those halcyon dry years that (nearly) everyone loves.

My first year was 2010 and it sets expectations dangerously high.

Over at the Daily Mail headquarters they are currently sacrificing a vegan to the rain gods. No rain = no picture of two girls with an umbrella splashing in the deepest puddle on site.

They can always re-caption the canoe from 2005

What's with the girls in Hunters when it's not raining/muddy??? Never really got that!! Fine yes wear them if it is raining but in sunshine..... What's that all about??.

I see Dave Grohl has made the Friday Night Frontman sacrifice to bring on 2010 stylee weather.

Here's a picture showing the rain that will likely hit on the Monday after the festival. Obviously still way to far out for any certainty:

NONONO don't want rain Monday, I need more chairs

[Sawdusty surfer]

I don't give a shit if we get hit by a tsunami on the Monday

Hmmm, the crew that make the festival happen for you might disagree.

And packing up a tent in the rain is the worst. Much rather a wet Wednesday than a wet Monday

Chuck it in the car, dry it when you get home. If the rest of its dry I couldn't care less about packing up in the rain.

Never a truer word.

I can't believe anybody would choose a wet Wednesday over a wet Monday! Nothing better turning up to a sunny festival, pitching up and having a cold beer! Couldn't care less what the weather does Monday!

[kirstylaa]

Never been to Glasto, but every other festival I have been to has rained. I went camping in the south of France for a week. It rained.

Bit o' sunshine would be cracking to arrive to for sure, and I have to agree, rain Monday doesn't bother me. Free shower before the coach home.

[frostypaw]

Still all to play for!

I wear wellies when it's not raining. Keeps my legs warm when the temp drops.

Go to days 8-16.....I'd take this outlook

That says rain every bloody day!

Doesn't look good, but it *is* French. Best ignore it.

HAH

That's what I say when it's bad. This morning's is better, to be known as the 'wet thursday' run. Standard.

[psychology]

Anyone know how much rain the site got yesterday?

Your sir are out of your mind.

People pack up their tents?

[devonhammer]

This morning's GFS run is really poor. High pressure breaks down next weekend and Wed-Fri of the festival have rain :-(

On the plus side, the ensemble shows that the operational run has far more rain than any other model and the average of all runs is pretty much dry :-)

We won't get any proper idea until at least mid week and still all to play for.

Every day seems to be different ie

Wednesday reports - Dry

Thursday reports - Wet

Friday reports - Dry

Today's reports - Wet

You mean they don't know?

You can't predict the weather this far out which is why most of the agencies don't have detailed runs yet. We just can't help torturing ourselves.

[kalifire]

Today's Acuweather seems to be almost a mirror image of last year: very sunny on Wednesday, less so Thursday, heavy rain Friday, showers Saturday and sun again on Sunday. Just no storm this time. I wouldn't stick on that though - I'd take my chances.
