I signed up after going through this rollercoaster in 2016. I do seem to have a mild obsession with the weather as I vist the site quite often. I'm yet to post there though as I don't have a eff clue what they are talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think on those charts the lines are sea level pressure, and the colours are 500Hpa pressure which is about 5500 metres above sea level.

Ayrshire Chris Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Making our final preparations to leave for Glastonbury in a few hours time. It’s absolutely pissing down here, really heavy rain. Neighbours are looking at me in amazement wearing shorts packing lager and bags into the car with hears the thing by sports team blasting out. Meanwhile the river at our front door is rising. Somerset can’t come quick enough! Edited June 17, 2022 by Ayrshire Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kind of amount that would completely soak you if you walked through it. Nobody complained! Least of all me, who was really starting to overheat, even rubbing ice on my head didn't help, but the water spray sorted me right out. was that up by the Avalon? i remember that happening too, was it the Thursday? it was so damn hot.

JJrock69 Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 One thing this thread has a taught me is you don't need to attend university to study meteorology, you can merely get all the education you need from this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscore Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 the only trouble with the big water sprayers cooling you down, (or any water used for this) is I'm always worried it will wash off your suntan lotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaryclaireyfairy Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 1 hour ago, FuzzyDunlop said: Yeah. The worst is, I am genuinely scared. I'm scared of having a panic attack in it. Which means Im more likely to have 1. I havent had 1 for a long time, but I also havent been in the sun since. I am determined to enjoy the festival, but if there is a heatwave, the likelihood is, I'm going to suffer. Stop being scared (yeah, yeah, I know). Think about how it might get tough but you WILL cope cos you've coped before (albeit by a bawhair, it still counts) and you're going to try some new things this time to make your time easier. It will not be worse than '19. Whether you have a panic attack or not, it doesn't matter, you've got this. Get thee to a charity shop and buy a big-ass, long-sleeved shirt that's at least 2 sizes too big. Allocate a budget to buy baggy, stupid festival trousers from one of the stalls. Or a kaftan. Take a wee handbag brolly so you'll always have access to some approximation of shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I was really losing the plot at the time, properly on the edge of heatstroke. I thought it was closer to Greenpeace/W Holts area, but if you remember it being by Avalon, it'll be the same one - unless someone deployed a cluster of fire engines spraying everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Other Steve Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 In 2019 they deployed tractors absolutely drenching anyone on the railway track during the day. It was epic 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
