Is this the general weather threads heart rate readings? Before and after reading.

Looking like a total sh*tshow over here on the east coast this week. 4 days of yellow rain warning - looks like raining solid for 4 days!

You’ve got to laugh really.

At least this looks to miss the south west.

Thanks to @DesperateDad 's pointed, I've updated the table with last week's (and yesterday's) reading from a weather station located near Castle Cary.

This reflects the thoughts that that area had missed the worst of Friday's rain, and make for better reading:

Also, the squiggly line rain graph thing now has the festival within the time frame. 

As pointed out earlier, this suggests some pretty average weather this coming week, but settling down after that... Though I think this based on a combination of dice and tarot cards.

Aren't the numbers the same? (51, 157) - sorry if I'm being thick.

Unless its really persistent (anything over, say, 35mm??) the ground should be OK if the following week is pretty dry. May was the driest since sometime before 2007, so it's not water falling on top of water.

Nope, you're right - I only updated my weekly stats. 

Edit incoming.

Good - I'm not seeing any current forecasts for over about 20mm for next week. So fingers crossed.

With the netweather forum, people need to take into account that they are looking for a heatwave. We don't need that. All we need is 20-22 and not much rain. That will be absolutely perfect for us. So if they are saying "no signs of a good summer breaking through" that is not necessarily a bad thing for Glasto as an outlook.

Totally agree. Nice to have some sunshine but not too hot.

There are some 'apocalyptic weather' click bait predictions too. Probably trying to get featured in the Mail.

I have just stared at that data for an inordinate amount of time and have come to the conclusion there is no pattern.

 

might just go look again to double check ?

Just going by here (Liverpool) we have had 32.3mm over Friday and Saturday recorded on my rain gauge.

Just been the field with the dogs and you wouldn't know it had rained. A dry(ish) winter and May means the ground has dealt with the rain well.

From what I can see similar conditions down at the farm so I am not worrying yet. Hopefully get any rain out of the way before the festival (Not too much though) and happy days.

I think we should all chip in for an on site weather station that posts to the internet so we have exact data :0)

Alright, time to barge into this thread with some completely baseless positivity. It’s going to be fine!! A few little showers on the run up but history will record 2019 as a dry, warm festival. Yes!!!!

It’s fucking scorchio in Cornwall at the moment with a cool breeze. STICK

Slight concern that by the looks of it last year would’ve been mega if it was on, as was the year before of course ? Can our luck continue?

All these weather reports are getting to complicated for me, I will just go old School and stick my bald head outside my tent each morning. ?
