I am a lurker on this thread - every year, it's the same rollercoaster. I seem to remember even in 2010, we thought it would be rain a week before didn't we?

I can't go until friday due to child/business. It's my one weekend of the year where I get to properly let my hair down, so rain or shine* baby, my hair is coming down.

If anyone wants to report back on the state of the ground once they are there, I'll still be here, even if no-one else is.

Hope everyone has an amazing time!

*I'd love some sunshine though please weather gods.

 

2010 was pretty much bang on for a heatwave a few days before the festival started.

Just watched the 6:30 evening weather on the BBC.

 

Didn't like the look of the rain which looks like it will pass over those who Q overnight on Tuesday

[BambooShanks]

But as unfortunate and annoying as that rain would be, surely it'd be better for the ground if it occurred then, as opposed to the Wednesday morning?

 

Silver linings and all that

Met office suggesting this is just scattered showers, drizzly to light, with only 60% chance.

Keep doing it though, we are nearly there.

Have you recovered from your rather emotional win yesterday?

Just about. My home baked celebration cake went down a storm at work today!

The webcam looks delightful at the moment

Just add my bum on one of those seats, pint in hand chatting to someone I have only just met.

This is going to be the best yet.

I love this post

I'm having computer problems so can't post graphs...

but the average rainfall for the 16 sites I check is 8.9mm which would make it better than 2014 but worse than 2013 and 2015. 

Over 80% of the sites are predicting less than 10mm which suggests a consensus is forming.

Roof down and shades on for the journey home from work, 23 degrees, Wolf Alice on the stereo, panic over, it's going to be a beaute.

So I've been watching Game of Thrones and now just taking a quick break before the footie starts to catch up on the weather rollercoaster. Is all forgiven with the Norwegians? Are we going to be OKAY?

I still haven't packed. Apart from my beer.

Good for you! My car broke down on the way home from work! It's a race against time to get it fixed...

Maybe a blessing in disguise if I get down a day late though
