briddj Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 Here's the 00Z in summary. High pressure: Continues to build from the weekend and through the week until Thursday, when it sinks back towards Europe. Over the festival Saturday and Sunday, pressure returns to the levels of this weekend cominng again - not terrible just not as high as midweek. Precipitation: Showing a fair bit of rain on the Monday still, and again some rain when the gates open, plus a bit on Weds eve. Then dry all day Thursday with a very small amount on Friday, Saturday and Sudnay - but really barely worth mentioning, only saying cos it appears on the run. Temperatures: Monday 14-15, Tuesday 17-19, Wednesday 23-24, Thursday 22, Friday 23, Saturday 19-20, Sunday 17-18 So we have had some consistency in the last three runs, so a pattern may well be emerging for the plume! However, we are still too far away and the pocket of low pressure sat out to the south west of the country is key to everything...... it needs to stay out of the way. I won't say it's a great update even though it's still warm with less rain. ? 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 At the moment I'm more interested in today and tomorrow. 2016 taught us that decent overheads during the fest don't count for much if gets caught amidships by floods the previous week.

xandercs12 Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 I feel like even if it rains a bit tonight and tomorrow, we have good enough weather after that to dry most of it up. Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire the effort you are putting in here, and certainly compared to mean you are somewhat of an expert. Also keep up with the opptimism, youve certainly dragged me up this morning and im very positive about things. One of 2 things will happen post festival. 1, you will be completely wrong we all will have been soaked and you will be remembered as the joker who doesn't know what hes talking about for ever on the forum. or 2, i believe the most likely, you will bang on. We will have a great weekend weather wise and this will be your job for every festival to come. You will be this threads equivalent of RAM jam jar, sticky stick and big dogs paws! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume they're overly cautious with such things (making boundaries their absolute max) given that they're warnings. Although this gives me some comfort it does require ignoring @stopwn1981's pretty-but-terrible image.... (Green is bad, right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper86 Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) The missus keeps looking at whatever weather site you get on google and is getting pissed off that it's forecasting lots of rain before and during the festival, I've obviously her that some fellas on the Glasto forum have already promised it's all going to be fine but she is not having any of it ?

My Mrs is the same with iPhone one. Then she looks at the BBC doom mongers ‘rain cloud all day for 5 mins rain’ and tuts. 2016 was her first one and she thinks that it’ll be like that every year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
