The Weather Thread 2022

All eyes on midnight. It can change everything if the trend confirms the direction.

Dickhead here went shopping after work today for an hour.. dickhead here is burnt to a crisp.

No sympathy wanted, this is all my fault, it wasnt sunny when I left & it turned, so no lotion on.. but let's just say Wednesday & Thursday are going be rank.

Ironically I was going for a hat and a long sleeved shirt to help.

Didn’t 2019 show similar stuff until a few days before the festival then it became the absolute scorcher that it was?

Scorcher was in the bag now and we weren't fighting John fucking Snow last time.

I will be buzzing if this turns around now

Nothing worse than having your dick head burnt

Again, all the rain appears to be hitting southern Wales and Cornwall and missing the site. But it's on the cusp. Highs of 21.

You could say that... it's on a knife-edge?

Squid are on at the park Saturday tea time. Literally

KNIFE. EDGE.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I think it had turned by now. 

But will still bite the hand off the faintest inkling of a positive trend.

This was the week before Glastonbury in 2019

Well that answers my question 😅 still a chance we could avoid rain at some point right? Right? 👀 

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

Saturday ended up being the hottest day

This looks way better from what we have currently. I would be happy just having a little rain but no mud please.

I'm happy with my rose coloured shades... 

[RaphPH]

My experience of attending 2019 was that it was boiling all weekend even at night.   No rain and I walked around in converse. Though the forecast for Sunday was rain and lows of 12 

[jparx]

They key with that 2019 forecast from this time three years ago is that low pressure was again coming in for the weekend, which you can see there with the temp dropping on Saturday and rain on Sunday. Then in reality Saturday ended up the hottest day and it was totally settled. Still time therefore for this low pressure to die off a bit, but certainly the current forecast is looking worse than 2019 so we’d need a bigger swing

[tjchittt86]

At least the site should be 'intact' by the time the possible apocalyptic weather comes through on Saturday. 'Fresh' mud rather than mud upon mud..

[steviewevie]

That GFS looks worse to me. Am I missing something?

Saturday/Sunday are just a touch off!

So what you’re saying is, we are about to enter the second half the 2005 champions league final?

[stopwn1981]

12z UKMO maintains low further away until Saturday. See if ECM follows suit…a divergence of sorts 

[Dan190984]

Have we tried getting 200k people to just blow the clouds really hard as they come in? Couldn't fail. 

I am reviewing 6 different weather apps and going with which ever is best at any given time. 

Met Office for the win!
