squirrelarmy Posted June 5, 2023 Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 The only day I wouldn’t want to be a scorcher is the Wednesday. Lots of queuing people at risk of dehydration and then moving all their heavy gear across site. If the sun can hold off until everyones got their tents up and first cans open I’d be happy.

chazwwe Posted June 5, 2023 Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 Wednesday scorcher almost ruined me in 2019. Got stuck in a queue that just wasn't moving direct at 1pm. Ran out of water in the queue as did quite a few others. Was out of it for the rest of the day and most of Thursday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long way to go though and other places aren't seeing it that way yet. Nothing more than anecdotal, but I've always found yr.no to be less likely to forecast extremes and be more reliable. Used to know a park ranger in the Peaks who swore by it. That rain forecast in the build up has me nervous as a long tailed cat in a rocking chair shop.

Alvoram Posted June 5, 2023 Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) it's the ECMWF that's letting us down at the moment, and is presumably where Met and Beeb are taking their long range forecasts... Latest run shows a biblical amount of rain between now and the 15th right over Pilton. Don't mind personally if it gets it out of the way...

If it's a heat wave you wear shorts and t-shirts drink more water and have a blast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
