I work in News so our Weather man/Meteorologist is about to be asked for weekly updates on the weather until the event itself. Of course, I'll choose not to listen if it starts turning to bad news! He's currently saying it's anyones guess for weather that far ahead  

Oooh insider information.

Full line up released and  tickets arrived- just obsessive weather watching left now!! 

[SighMo]

You think they’d release the weather now the full lineup is out.

It's a bit like not thinking about Christmas until after Fireworks Night. I feel we're now allowed to obsess about the weather properly.

Then you have no choice but to threaten him with the thrashing of his life if he doesn't deliver good weather news, and soon!

When it was sunny a week or two ago, I was feeling quite optimistic, now its been rainy for a few days, I'm not so sure...

Optimism restored!

However, the past few festivals, there was nice weather up until gates opening, then the nice weather started to break down around the wednesday (Annoying!)

Driving down for a weekend in Bristol (from the North West) and getting out at the services it's was noticeably hotter.

Gav's vids are going to start ramping up now.

Looks like it's going to be quite wet next weekend (nice to put some give in the ground...) but the CHANCE it might be getting warmer and more settled in the second half of June.... but all to play for....

I remember in 2011 we put the last peg in the tents and the heavens opened just for us to dive in and spend the next hour or so reading the programme and having a few cans.

Yup. My first Glasto. I'd just gone through Gate D when it started battering it down, and a load of us were huddled under a massive tree. One of our mates had a right hissy fit (his first gf too) much to our amusement. Was a good intro to Glasto!

2017's  weather would be perfect, barring Wednesday being too hot.

Agreed. The warm nights were especially good.

2017 was great weather. No rain. Not too hot, not too cold.

Apart from Wednesday when I feared for the rest of the festival. When it cooled that night I was very happy.

Wednesday day melted my brain. But watching fireworks on a warm evening to kick everything off was great.
