RossendaleR Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Hmm. Deluge Wednesday, less rain Thursday, possibly no rain Friday, then getting rainier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfy Bean Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 A few dry and warm days this week with a nice breeze and we could still be ok. The festival have previous good form for keeping things moving with wood chips etc. I don't sense another 2014 in these forecasts. That year I read about the flood warnings for the Lake District before setting off on the Thursday morning. Still all to play for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robskyd Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I agree Comfy Bean. I've got three different weather apps and they all say something different. I've enjoyed this thread but I'll only trust the weather report on the Friday when we're setting off up the M6 ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generationgav Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Google forecast looks bad on the icons, but then says Thursday - Showers - 50% chance rain Friday - Showers - 50% chance rain Saturday - Showers - 40% chance rain Sunday - Partly Cloudy - 20% chance rain My only concern is 100% chance rain on Wednesday - but still not expecting it to be like 2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the others were saying 24 for the Wednesday and this one said 16, turns out it was 31 in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramragon Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 To be fair looking around the sites it seems that most are predicting a bit of rain every day, but it doesn't appear to be that heavy or last that long. Wednesday looks bad though so there could be a lot of wet ground with tractors and other vehicles driving over it before we start to arrive. Could be worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
