Skelts Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 Looking similar on all of the weather websites at the moment. Thank you weather Gods, this would be perfect weather, nice dry build up, not too hot, dry weekend for sitting around and chilling out before the evening shenanigans 👌 (feck, I'm getting excited now!)

Nobody Interesting Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 There are showers shown on yr.no Thursday and Friday BBC shows dry with max 15% chance of rain at any time but mostly less than 10% Met Office only just coming into range. Boo to the Norweigans at the moment. Hurrah to the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaminglippy Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 FFS...finally looks like the ticket issue is being sorted now they are forecasting bloody rain! Don't mind a bit of rain to be fair...particularly at night when back in the tent. The rain on the Friday in particular at the last Beautiful Days was a bit much. I remember a Kendal Calling where it literally rained non-stop for the whole 4 days...I was there on the Sunday, watching Tom Odell (not through choice, my chair was sinking so far into the mud I didn't have the energy to try and pull it out and move) thinking 'I'm too old for this shit'. Athlete stopped halfway through their set to do a running commentary on people at the back of the main stage who were sliding down the hill in the mud.

Skelts Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Hopefully that’s just an outlier on that websites latest model. It’s much less pessimistic over on the Met Office. Not much in the way of sun but only 10% chance of rain https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/gcj8zrxj8#?date=2021-08-21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skelts Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Just watched country file. Seems there’s a good v evil battle between a high and low pressure area on Friday. All to play for. Come on High pressure, you can do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blutarsky Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 BBC pretty pessimistic now… Thursday evening and Saturday morning are when the forecast gives the highest chance of rain, around 50%. So what it’s saying is there’s a chance of a dry festival! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Interesting Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Never fear, the Daily Star tell us hot weather is coming. They obviously know something nobody else does. I am still rooting for the Met office forecast whilst packing my winter woolies and rain wear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much lower predicted chance of rain and any rain that does come is likely to be a mild inconvenience at best. I hope! Like you say, still more chance of a dry festival than wet, whichever forecast you look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
