Lets face it, its going to be like this from now until gates open. The weather is going to get very hot an humid in the next few days. That can ultimately only result in one thing in the end. There is/will be so much energy upstairs that something will give eventually. There's no point guessing where and when it will happen, it could be in Pilton, it could be elsewhere, it might be late next week, it might be the after that. As far as I am concerned as long as we get a couple of day without wellies i will be a happy man, just lap it up. Its going to be fun. Cant see it being a 5 day quagmire, cant see it being 24-7 rain, so lets be thankful for that, forget the weather, its time to get excited people, its going to be ace in 4 days time....

You twisted my arm... put another log on the fire and pass the hip flask. It's a long yarn, but a good one. Anyone who was there in 2007 knows there was only one way to survive that weekend - and

Hi guys.  As suggested by @JoeyT - I've updated the Rainfall records summary table I put together in 2017... The historical data is taken from here:  https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/had

2. The rubbish adverts are GETTING BIGGER the nearer we get to ground zero. Stop It. I am NOT paying your £18 ransom money.

3. WTF is going on ?!?!?!? Can someone please speak English ? Will it be muddy or will it be scorchio ?????

Still getting the hang of this weather forecasting malarky, but to me the GFS operational in the ensemble doesn't look anywhere near as bad rain wise as the maps.

However (there is always a however), the GFS operational seems to disagree with other runs regarding the rain on Wednesday. Lots of other runs go for torrential rain, thunderstorms I presume.

The way read the ensembles is a high potential for storms on Wednesday, and potentially another storm at some point later in Glastonbury, but not constant rain.

Thanks. What does 12z GFS mean? 

I prefer "shorts weather" or "not shorts weather"

It’s a weather run/simulator- it runs at 00:00, 06:00, 12:00 and 16:00. It takes 3-4 hours to process so generally forecasters won’t really reference/update for while after they run. The 12z results came out about 5pm

It’s  not a ransom, it’s to support the site.

You might want to rethink this? £18 is not a lot to support a wonderful site we all enjoy. It can’t buy good weather, but it does help the overheads of running the website. Think about it?

Could go your way, could go mine. Either way one of us is going down
