Since it was originally posted here I've been looking at it daily and assessing it's accuracy, which has been reliable. Currently still showing a big ass high pressure building just before the festival which, if the weather gods are smiling, will move slowly eastwards across the country pushing everything away form the UK for the duration we care about.

Still all to play for.... Indeed; this time next week is when accurate forecasting starts to play a part, until then there are too many variables and too many (mis) interpretations. Personally I believe it will be a mostly dry, warm festival with just the chance of a shower on Sunday (no one cares by then). We'll see.......

Speaking as a geography teacher, antecedent rainfall is a major cause of flooding. If there isn't any, the water will soak straight in and any m*d will be merely fleeting.

This year is looking relatively promising.... that being said I'm shitting it still that we might get a breakdown in weather the end of next week!!!
