I thought looking at the forecasts for Bilbao might indicate the way things are trending there.

It's all down to how forecasters interpret the data, hence why some forecasts appear better than others (doesn't necessarily mean that they're more accurate).

I would personally stick with no more than a 5 day forecast; Tuesday will give you more accurate indicators for the festival period.

The data does suggest mainly dry though.......

Well it was bloody lovely yesterday and I'm looking forward to an amazing week, even if the weekend goes a bit wobbly.

I think the iPhone app predicting rain is the best thing thst could happen, considering its never once been right since records began

This is one of the best things about the Glastonbury run up, this thread. The rollercoaster of emotions. I think we are going to be okay. A little bit of rain to keep it cool at night.

We're teetering on the verge of collapse. From experience this is where the bands of solid rain start firming up in the forecasts and getting gradually worse. 

God bless the weather thread. We dared to dream.

Nothing. We're talking light rain on a rock hard site.

I understand the fear- one year a torrential rain blob seemed to zone in on the site like a homing missile!

We'll be fine.
Even if it does rain Sat/Sun - we should appreciate the Weds, Thurs, Fri.

At least we're not setting up our tents in the rain!? ...........

BBC forecast is perfect

GFS seems better this morning to me. Still too much rain on Thursday for my liking though and some horrible big blobs and bands of rain to south & north, if they were to hit us would be nasty! Still slightly more positive so far today, I have everything crossed.

Bbc weather is still looking lovely. Nice and hot but cloudy so people shouldn't be as burnt as huge direct sunlight!
