Weather 2016

[nban2010]

Bbc and Met office now reporting no rain at all all weekend.

Looks like theres a few bands around and theyll either hit us or they wont.

But I shall now leave this thread until next year. It has been a ride.

May the odds be ever in our favour.

Not sure where else to post this so ill chuck it here since this thread has morphed into a general discussion (and it vaguely relates to weather).

Just bumped in to two teenagers at Temple Meads. Absolutely steaming. They were asking us how to get to Glastonbury and how much a taxi would be from Bristol to the festival. 

Best part: they both were wearing waterproofs, one had a big explorer type hat, and they had no bags at all, just a two man pop up tent between them.

Can you imagine what a great time they will have?! Must be amazing to be so care free.

Probably going to try jump the fence. Did they have any twixes on them by any chance?

HEY WEDGE I UNDERSTOOD YOUR REFERENCE HERE

[Pinhead]

Going for wet and muddy protocol for tomorrow at any rate. Goodbye from me and have a great festival all of you. I am certain that you will - whatever the weather. Peace.

It's been an enjoyable if not worrying ride at times, but we are finally here and I can't fucking wait, leaving at 6am so need to go to bed, have a sick time everyone (whatever the weather)! 

Peace x

with a 3 minute light shower on the Saturday night starting just as Adele breaks in to the chorus of Set Fire to the Rain, situated only over the Pyramid field, and then that's the lot

[Jugtanion]

Peace out guys. Always an entertaining thread this. Now for the main event. Look forward to the stories to come.

Raining fairly heavy in Exeter, about to set off - hopefully not too much drifts northwards.

All starting to resemble Millhouse...

Why are you in one of the East car parks instead of next to your caravan?"

[CaledonianGonzo]

How long did the rain last for? 

Please say "a few seconds"

[TheNewUnion]

Still raining now. Probably been raining for an hour or more. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Nuts. Ah well. There's always the chance of the odd shower.  At least there's noone walking round the site for a few hours

[jparx]

Leaving now. Shepton Mallet forecast looks good for today! 

[tjfish]

I'm going in now, It's raining BUT; the forecasted rain for all day today has now turned into cloud/sun. So, who's the real winner here!?

Yeah temperatures of 20c forecast, that should help quite a bit with drying out the site.
