Except that the warm weather is being predicted to START next week, not this.

If Mr Barkley ends up putting a fan down his pants next week I'll be a very happy lady.

Here's the GFS 12Z.

High pressure: Pressure building to a high on Wednesday. The low pressure is now further out east and does NOT encroach on the UK as much.

Precipitation: Little bit showing for this Thursday, then essentially dry through to this Sunday at 3pm when there is a small amount around but far less than on previous runs. Some rain on Monday but still the potential for a heavy overnight downpour into Tuesday. Tuesday day now esentially dry - brilliant for drying and the ground should recover really well. Now NO proper rain around on the Wednesday, with London getting the heavy stuff. Same on Thursday, with the proper rain out to the east.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday now TOTALLY dry.

Temperatures: This Saturday 18-19 and Sunday 19-20 - ground will be solid again. Monday 24-25, Tuesday 21-22, Wednesday 23, Thursday 22-23, Friday 20-21, Saturday 20-21, Sunday 21-22

So this updates has LESS rain.

NO Wednesday deluge.

And a DRY festival.

Can I say this is brilliant update?

 

 

Only if you refrain from bold and large font. ?

Need to see ensembles to see if operational run has agreement from other 19 runs on gfs

[gherkin8r]

When do we get the next completely meaningless update then?

[JGP]

As long as we don't get any of these this year I'll be happy! 

[stopwn1981]

Starts 22:30 completes about 90 mins later. Any bets on 40 degree heat and a ground frost?

Don't wear wellies 

I really wouldnt want to work on the recycling team in other sorts of boots  - I know they are waterproof but I dont want to be wearing anything that I have to touch to get off - i.e. anything with laces etc.

Not weather related but something I found funny.. bored browsing at work and stumbled across this pic from Glasto in 1990, whats going on here? ??

Circus Archaos. They were juggling fire and riding motorbikes over the Pyramid. Was awesome in the dark 

 

Things were a tad different then

Should of clarified. Don't wellies as in there will no need for wellies. 

 

Unless of course they needed for purposes over then the rains 

[Avalon_Fields]

So, to cover all eventualities I recommend packing: wellies, boots, flip-flops, waders, trainers, crocs, high heels, ballet shoes, platform heels, gladiator sandals, brogues, and divers lead boots.

The BBC will put a rain cloud on if it’s going to rain for five minutes in 24. They’re doom mongers with this as much as anything else they report

We are now pretty sure that the quagmire that was 2016 cannot happen again thoug aren’t we?
