It's looking good isn't it?

Just a couple of outliers in the ensembles that could lead to a wet festival.

So in summary - we still haven't a fucking clue

In summary it's not a good forecast for your usual we're fucked bollocks.

He’s been quiet. Makes me more nervous…..cause there’s plenty of twists to come (and he knows it)

Don't even say this. It's not secured yet.

No we aren't. The low is still there.

I have to say since a lot more (actual) doom mongers have entered this thread I’m quite the fan of your accurate posts. 

This far out is pretty pointless. 

Having said that, I’ll be in here tomorrow pretending to understand charts I’m utterly clueless about.

[LinvoyPrimus]

All I want is some damn consistency so I can narrow down packing/clothing options. 

Between these runs and the relatively settled picture on Met Office/BBC, it looks like we might be getting there. Still fairly far out, but it's encouraging.

Pack for all eventualities. Boots, shorts for your lower half and layers for up top.

I know we've had a few years off but I'm beginning to think that people have forgotten what a British "summer" is like.

 

Edit to say yes the years off were glorious wall to wall sunshine but it was only ever toying with us.

Look, all we’re asking for is for the low pressure to lose to the high but not until a bit of rain moistens the ground a few days before, and not to go too far away so the temperatures keep comfortably mid-range. 

Is that so much to ask for?

I've got a pair of zip off 3/4s. a few pairs of shorts. couple of t shirts, a buttned shirt and a hoodie. Along with rain gear. 

Bring anything

As always, but Where's the fun in that. All part of the build up, as been for years. I won't believe the forecast 2 days out even , but I will be checking in here on a regularly basis.  Traditions need to be kept

I got my Glasto gear down from the attic today. Amongst it all is a poncho. If current forecasts stick, I’ll not bother taking it. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'd rather carry wet weather gear all the way there and not need it than the reverse scenario.
