Lightning, blizzards, sandstorms, the works. Let the climate get it out of its system this year and give us a clean slate for next year.

I don't think that's how it works. Rain this summer doesn't make rain next summer more or less likely 😛 

I would take a blizzard this month though.

plus the small thing of global warming ... might not make a difference from 1 year to the next ... but ...

Can we have hot sunshine in Pilton in June, and shit rainy blizzards across the rest of the UK?

Cos that guarantees a beautiful festival every year.....honest😎😎😎

I have a little applet that runs so that when the temperature at worthy farm is above a certain temperature then it moves some money into my Glastonbury 2022 savings pot for extra beer. 
 

that way everyone wins

That sounds super useful - I want it! What’s the applet called?

i'd be extremely happy to see biblical rain in the glastonbury area around the end of june, it just feels like a fair swap for next year's doubtless dry and not too sunny perfectitude 

The Pilton residents must hate all of our superstitions on a fallow* year.

*enforced!

It’s on IFTTT called the summer savings challenge and it links your Monzo account with weather underground to put money in your savings account. 
 

im going to do one for winter when the temp drops below a set level.

Looking dicey for Glastonbury weekend:

Currently over the five days themselves it's looking like 19/20 degrees and mostly sunny with some cloud. Looks bang on perfect... Although, thunderstorms and flooding predicted this week, and a lot of rain at the start of next week. What fun we'd be having on this thread right now if it were happening!

(Just realised we'd only be nine days out.... Sigh)

It's the lovely weather over the previous 4 years that you need to watch out for.

I think 2020 would have had a fair bit of rain if it had gone ahead as it tipped it down on the Saturday when Jo Whiley presented that Glastonbury Live thing on BBC2.

    • So bad honestly. I get that bad weather happens but their communication was non existent. When you're managing crowds of tens of thousands of people, it's just not good enough. I left when Massive Attack was cancelled (the first time) and it genuinely did feel unsafe trying to get out. No one knew what was going on, people still sitting in the ground when there were hoards of people trying to leave, no crowd management at all...   I've been to PS enough times to know sometimes you need to just roll with it but this was way worse than "the bar queue was 30 minutes long".    Today will be better but still feel super disappointed.

    • Solid list...  but i must ask?  are you excluding Lime Garden & Tomora as you didn't like them or is it that you havent listened to them? 
    • It was Brooklyn last year, and I seem to remember a Guinness tent
