You’ll need to be out of trainers in that weather I think, but yeah it’s not wellie weather by any stretch.

Hahaha this is a joke right? You could wear trainers with 10mm of rain and barely get muddy..

Yeah, same as Saturday.

How usually Metcheck works with the porcentages? Are they usually low by default when it's far or they can show up 60% or stuff like this?

I would've been near that stage around then on the Wednesday.  Got smashed on pear cider and then woke up in my tent the next morning, only to discover (via some photos) that my friends had decided to empty glowstick juice (ooh'errr!) all over me while i was passed out.

Fucking shite.

Fake news. The rain will get pushed back to Monday and we will be dry the whole time.

I've finished work now, and so fucking excited I actually couldn't give 2 shits if we have a category 5 hurricane the whole weekend as I'm gonna be free to get as pissed as I want for 5 days straight. And that's what it's all about.

6.5 mm is less than 1 cm... Less than 1/3 of an inch in old money... It's not going to be wellie weather if that holds true. 

Yep, 6.5 mm is around 65% of 1 cm. Definitely less.

2005 was the flash flood and I still went back, by Sunday the mud was as high as your waist in some places but sticky. 2007 was hard but ways to alleviate the difficulties of nowhere to sit are having seats back the tents under shelter.

Both of those times the weather didn’t fully predict and both of those times the people without wellies were scuppered.

a peaked cap 🧢 is great under a poncho in the rain to stop the dripping on to you your face and to enable you to look up and see the bands! 

[waterfalls21234]

The two setup days weds and thurs are fine by all accounts with no rain to be had and the rest just showers......but who cares when youve got the music to distract you fri-sun anyway....as long as weds/thurs are fine then all good

Was it?? I just remember it being virtually gone by Sunday.  Not that I did a survey of the site.  I guess at the bottom of Pennard Hill with the lack of drainage, it might have been.

Met Office and BBC have both definitely improved this afternoon. What new data is driving that?
