sauceageroll Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Opted to bring the trainers as well as the walking boots. Psychologically putting on a pair of trainers Sat/Sun providing we’ve had reasonable weather could be a terrific boost to see you through.

p.pete Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Very heavy rain in Devon at the minute - hopefully it's burning itself out here before it gets near Somerset. Happy to be dumped on while I'm still here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasto Weatherwatch Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 One risk that still remains in the next two days is a VERY unlucky, localized hour or so of heavy rain while everyone is onsite creating conditions for mud. Friday late afternoon 2015 being the perfect example. Super unlikely I know, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the GFS, for example, predicting showers breaking out across England on Thursday, it wouldn’t take much for one to pop up near the site… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheffield Steve Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Just driving down the M5 on the way to the hotel, looking over in the site’s general direction. Some nice cumuliform development, one or two light showers forming…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasto Weatherwatch Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 GFS 12z brings rain in on Sunday pm. Otherwise broadly unchanged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briddj Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 ***THIS IS YOUR FINAL 12Z*** Will there be a sting in the tail? WEDNESDAY Dry when gates open with temps of 19. Still showing the possibility of some very, very, very light showers in the PM - but nothing of note whatsoever. Temps of 21. Overnight temps into Thursday: 12-13 THURSDAY Completely dry, highs of 21-22. The possible light rain is pushed further east in this run. Overnight temps into Friday: 12-14 FRIDAY Completely dry, highs of 18-21. Overnight temps into Saturday: 16 SATURDAY Completely dry, highs of 23. Overnight temps into Sunday: 14-17 SUNDAY DOWNGRADE KLAXON! This run has that troublesome low pushing in early and causing small showers between 3pm and around 9pm. Highs are right down on previous runs, just 21 now as the low pushes in earlier. Temps through Elton now only 16. Overnight temps into Monday: 13 SUMMARY! It's back. It's the KNIFE EDGE. We really, really need to keep an eye on Sunday, there is quite a bit of danger there yet and we are not really close to reliability. The low has been getting stronger consistently for a while, we just need to high to push back again and hold us safe for a few more hours into Monday.
