BambooShanks Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 current forecast looks like this: With the obvious caveat that as good as this forecast is, this far out it is practically worthless. We will start seeing forecasts that are somewhat accurate 16 days before the festival 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deaf Nobby Burton Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) AccuWeather has the full festival in view now. Perhaps the temps are a bit cool, but doable. Bit of rain but none on Wednesday crucially, so not too bad. Would take it personally. I know it’s all rubbish at this stage, but it ain’t that long before this thread becomes properly relevant and my excitement levels ratchet up a few levels: Edit: mind you that rain on Thursday is fairly biblical isn’t it?

Spindles Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 I've said it before and I'll say it again, if it's going to r*** at glastonbury then Thursday evening is the best time. A good storm like 2009 or short downpour like 2013 is enough of a sacrifice to whichever norse god is responsible for this stuff. I don't want it when I'm pitching up and dragging my shit through the site, I don't want it when I'm packing it down and I'd rather not be dealing with it while the music's on.

With the proviso that temperatures are warm enough that it dries out quickly. In 2013 by second act on Friday it was drying out! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chazwwe Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 First post in here and as I say before the festival every year. 22-25 degrees across the whole week with a bit of a shower Friday morning(5am - 8am) to stop too much dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
