The other models going for more of a settled/hot outlook. you mean there is another forum ? must be made up of amateurs compared with those on here ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasperella2 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 If there is a risk of 35 every day I would probably prefer a bit of a damp squib.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hidden in the dark coolness of the Acoustic though so I dont know for sure... Other is always a hot field when its sunny. Fair weather whilwinds are common there. For comparison, in 95, also considered a hot year, temps were in the high 20's. The world has moved on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t understand 90% of what they are talking about, but it’s oddly addictive. They also have an unhealthy obsession with thunderstorms. https://community.netweather.tv/topic/98519-model-output-discussion-15th-march-onwards/page/87/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was litter picking after the festival for a week too and I literally didn’t see a single cloud the entire time I was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to work out what year it was when I did the post festival litter pick. It was either 94 or 95. I do remember it being hot. I was there until late August, we did all the streams, ditches, woodlands etc. I can't remember it raining at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolygonWindow Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) ECMWF IFS daily for today - well above avg temperature and avg rainfall for festival week.

Mind you we weren't doing the fields. I found money and lots of World Cup acid tabs. Also a sealed slab of Pepsi. And done very disturbing stuff in a few abandoned tents…….someone I kid you not,found an abandoned sit on bucket seat tractor. It worked. They drove off on it.

DYRTFT Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 At this point it’s just a question of whether it gets cancelled due to flooding or due to searing heat. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stopwn1981 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 How can GFS be outlier when it’s only one that goes as far as gates open? Unless that’s what makes it an outlier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless that’s what makes it an outlier The GFS model doesn’t deal with the current kind of set up as well as other models and the other models aren’t in agreement with it apparently so it’s an outlier.

Plus the current heatwave was bound to crash back to reality as well. Time to waterproof my electrics in my hat. Current heatwave?! Had two nice days in the last three weeks here. Was 10C on Tuesday, people had their winter coats on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
