Three weeks ago the end of May was going to be a washout, and it didn't rain at all. Thus, I will stand by TOO EARLY if the chart shows any rain. The festival is in less than 3 weeks. Forecast is still sh*t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's freeeeeezing in the East. Beginning of June and we've had the heating on and everyone I know is in the same position. Don't know where these warmer than average temperatures are?! Seriously, everyone near me still wearing coats. Keeps saying the temperature should be 17-18 but we're not getting past 13-14 and the wind makes it feel even colder!! Someone explain? It's got me so worried for camping in it, can't get warm at all!! Please tell me its warmer in the west?!! Never known a May/June like it, its rubbish!!! Been feeling more like early March than early June in Norwich 😭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4AssedMonkey Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 I realise this is only the next 10 days but I'd take that for the Fest itself. Ground will be like concrete for the site build which is A Good Thing (TM). I'm trusting the Norwegians again this year. BTW, I'm in West Yorks and it's 19C and sunny today with a light breeze. Was cooler and cloudier yesterday, but been dry/warmish for the last 2-3 weeks really. Lovely stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Sneddon Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 The way the weather is building up we would have to be dreadfully unlucky to have any downpours during the festival, surely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolygonWindow Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Met Office: Saturday 17 Jun - Saturday 1 Jul High pressure is likely to become less dominant with time, especially in the south with low pressure likely to approach from the near Continent. Northern areas may hang on to the largely dry conditions, but southern areas will see an increased risk of occasional heavy rain or thunderstorms from time to time. Any changes will be slow though, and there will still be plenty of dry and warm, sunny weather between any rain or thunderstorms, with temperatures widely above average, perhaps significantly so.

Binned them and just worn shorts ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyshoes Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 This thread and the build-up really wouldn't be the same without the threat of rain. I successfully predicted the weather last year so this year I'm predicting a few more small showers spread out over the 5 days (slightly heavier than the rain on Friday last year, possibly a few in the night) but nothing that will get us trainer-wearers out of our trainers and blue skies the rest of the time.
