p.pete Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) Quote Monday 19 June—Sunday 25 June High pressure is in control We start this week with hot and sunny weather across the south of the UK and temperatures around 30ºC for many. In the north, across Scotland and to a lesser extent Northern Ireland we have cooler air moving in along with a band of cloud and some patchy rain. This cloud and rain will pull away from the UK by Tuesday and then mid-week it will be replaced by showers from the west. We won't all see these showers though and southern parts of England and Wales may remain completely dry all week. By this point temperatures will be dipping into the low-twenties. Ending the week we'll see a weather front approaching from the northwest bringing cloud and rain to Scotland and Northern Ireland. It's slow progress as this front approaches. England and Wales will remain dry and with warm air being pulled in from the continent, temperatures here look set to climb again. As often seems to be the case, as the weekend approaches, so does the rain and most of us will see some unsettled weather by Sunday.It's worth a mention that for much of this week, both UV and pollen levels are either high or very high. BBC updated their monthly text bit at 10:00, sorry if already posted - sounds great. Edited June 19, 2017 by p.pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikkic Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 42 minutes ago, waterfalls212434 said: yes I am, thats why I just want to get an accurate take on the weather? I travel by coach, packing light is a nesscitry, dont want to take wet weather gear if not needed its ok if you travel by car and can pack a shedload of stuff full knowing you can just leave it in the car if you dont need it, harder when you only really want to pack what your going to need But surely you must know by now that most weather reports are complete bollocks? It's not as if these reports are meant to be gospel, especially a week or more out from the festival. With regards to packing, just pack the basics.... T-Shirts, shorts, 1 pair of jeans, 1 jumper, 1 rain mac, socks, pants and wellies just in case. Hope this helps, have a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briddj Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 Weds, 26-28, now appears to have a small amount of afternoon rain to the north but nothing hitting the site. Even then at these temps it would be gone in minutes. Such as: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
