Euphoricape Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Think I will take decent trainers, and pair of older trainers for the potential rainy weather. Can't dance in walking boots.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasto Weatherwatch Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Personally I'd disregard Norway this close to festival. ECM and UKMO are most important at this stage. Will still be watching the GFS models (for fun!) but that's also less useful now IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only essential in my opinion are boots or wellies. If it rains, you'll dry off if you dont hsve a coat. If it's dry for 99% of the fest & we get 4 hours of Lamping it down, Trainers wont do for a period. It aint worth the risk IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, the worst weather in the runs also comes with the lowest confidence. We might not fully know the deal with the actual rainfall until literally on the day and if this blob of rain ends up being passing showers it shouldn’t be a problem in reality. The rain where I am was much better than forecasted this weekend, and I think that was the case in Pilton too. This is an interesting point. I think a lot of places were supposed to get a beating this weekend and it didn't really come off. Was exactly the same for me. Not a lot of action on the site either.

jparx Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Just travel down in boots and wedge your trainers in the bottom of your rucksack. That’s always the play regardless of the forecast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjfish Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Boots on way in (saves carrying them) Switch immediately to trainers - until it rains, then make a judgement call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
