When you start following the raw model data it really starts to show how behind the curve some forecasts are. I really wish any site showing forecasts had to specify their sources - something based off a 24-48 hour old model shouldn’t be given much credibility.

TBH with the UV at this time of year it doesn’t need to be sunny to get burnt. A full day out in the open without a hat or sun protection will do it, even if grey… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess some could be analysing various models and looking for trends etc instead of just updating after each run... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Chris Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) The sun is shining in Glastonbury town and a gentle breeze.

Colorblindjames Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Let’s all just be happy that it’s not going to be 40 degrees with a high risk of fires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 So at the moment, its dry & minimal rain for the weekend? But not a 5 day heatwave? If that's the case, I'm sticking. It could be a lot worse. I'll have to survive 2 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvoram Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Happy to wake up and see that the positive swing from last night hasn't been completely crushed by later runs, definitely trending up. 🙂 ECM is the best news!!! A little more precipitation in the 00Z than the 18Z, but it's still much better than the 6Z and 12Z of yesterday, and is definitely showing an improving picture. We had a lot of rain here yesterday, looking at the ground in my beer garden, it's dry already, and still cracked in places!!! Looks like all the grass and plant life snapped up yesterday's moisture in a desperate bid for survival! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euphoricape Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 We may well miss any rain and have decent temperatures the entire festival. 🌞🌞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Accuweather is my standard go to and isn't looking great for Pilton. Hope it changes, looks like we could get a rainy day over the weekend right now but otherwise a solid 20 degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
