SO I've finally starting reading this thread and I looked at a glasto weather forecast for the first time. It look like we'll be fairly ok until sunday?

Except for the potential storms, and that it's still changing, all the time.  Does seem positive, I wouldn't trust it just yet!

I *think* I get it.

If I'm understanding correctly, there looks to be good chunk of rain this Sunday night/Monday morning?

Who are you and what have you done with The Nal???

"that" The Nal is redundant until more significant rain appears on the forecasts.

I didn't even get that far.  All I saw was a wall of buttons with numbers on.  Didn't know which one to press.  I wouldn't have been much use at Chernobyl.

Hold on a second, you can't just stroll in here 5 days before the gates open all blase about it. We've been suffering for weeks in here!

If you just click the "choose chart type" drop down on the left of the page, beneath all those mental numbers, you can choose rain, min/max temperature charts etc., then scroll along the bar next to "Speed"

temps down a few degrees on this run at the start of the festival which is good IMO 

[fuzzy_logic]

Met office now have yellow warnings for thunderstorms on Sunday / Monday / Tuesday. Areas affected have also changed. 

[Madyaker]

Yeah wednesday and thursday are looking good anyway. We'll have better picture of t he next 3 days early next week I guess.

[Aragorn]

light rain at 3am Thursday 

clears through I think 

[Magma]

I love how involved the Netweather guys are in this after all these years. I remember the first few years we dragged them into it. ?

Someone should put a village sign up "Efestivals Glastonbury Chat: Twinned with NetWeather"

Lovely people.

Basically there will be some rain. Not enough to screw things. But enough to keep the dust down

This run is very different rain wise already - hopefully the Sat / Sun horror disappears.

 just enough to soften the ground but nothing too horrific, plus just because it says there will be rain there doesn't mean the site will get some  

[p.pete]

My phone's just been dinging with met office alerts for thunderstorm warnings - now in place for sunday, monday and tuesday pre-gates.  The map areas are so large, and it's over so many days, they don't have a clue.

[Glasto Weatherwatch]

Friday dry

[Aragorn]

temp midnight Friday is 24 degrees !!!! 

[tumbles]

The Tuesday 9am rain looks pretty heavy.
