Rather strangely if you look at the Shap forecast on accuweather above its totally different to the one at hackthorpe which is 2 mins from the festival !

I'll take thus one

http://m.accuweather.com/en/gb/hackthorpe/ca10-2/weekend-weather/327492

Think there is some gremlins on the original link? If you type Shap in (even overwriting Shap) it refreshes to identical to the Hackthorpe one. I also just checked Lowther which is also the same, make sure I wasn't going potty or accu had all of a sudden became amazingly cloud specific accurate!

Its been around 13-16c for a while here (15mile east of Lancaster) but the feel is a lot warmer, gonna be a belter!

Met Office says it's going to be a bit grim all week....but brighten up on Thursday.

 

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Staying breezy on Wednesday but showers will be lighter and more scattered. Drier on Thursday with sunny spells before the threat of further showery rain by Friday. Staying cool throughout.

:phew:

The main bit on the local news on breakfast tv was the fact that a month's woth of rain has fallen last night and more is due today... luckily no flooding reported yet

Good start to the week then !

 

its raining now, but its only light.  The rain last night was heavy, but i'd not say it was a months worth!

in July a months worth of rain isn't as much as say a months worth in February so it will be fine red hot and sunny see you lot in the fields.

Yeh BBC news seems to be insisting that all will be well.

    • First time for me, really enjoyed it. Nice venue, nice weather, good vibes, etc.   Notes on performances: CMAT's a great performer - seen her live twice now.  GANS are my favourite new act since Big Special, and live they're fantastic. Fellow Brummies too, so I'm all about that. The album's a bit disappointing though. Primal Scream were great, although I felt the crowd seemed a bit muted. The Libertines sounded knackered. Not sure they're suited to a festival. First time seeing The Royston Club, thought they were very good - the tent seemed to be full of kids on each others shoulders singing along. I'm all about that. First time seeing the K's, a bit disappointed. Didn't like his voice, and I felt like every song sounded the same as the last one. Sarajevo is a good tune, though. It still sounds like all the others, just a bit better.  The Maccabees and Two Door Cinema club were a but underwhelming, but Pelican by the Maccabees is a banger. It all sounded a bit Travis/Early Coldplay to me though. The Wombats took me by surprise - I expected 1 1/2 hours of 'Let's Dance to Joy Division' style indie-landfill, so I was surprised to hear that some of the rest of their stuff had dynamics and range. I still don't think they're any good, but I can't say they didn't surprise me either. Just not my thing.   Surprise of the weekend for me was Rizzle Kicks. Never listened to them before, but they got me out of my tent and into the arena as I was trying to nurse a hangover and I thought it was a blast.    Will probably go next year too.  
    • Not really anything to say other than the fact I'm down at Opeth and this has been a cracking summer by and large here. Few duds, plenty of sellouts, strong weather, and the craft beer is cheaper than the regular bar. Winner winner, chicken dinner! 
    • Pink Floyd night on sky arts time for me  to wallow in nostalgia and remember some incredible gigs
