What is funny about it is PRECISELY the piss boiling it inevitably causes every year. Imagine getting raged out at a stranger on the internet highlighting negative weather forecasts. It doesn't actually impact the outcome lads.

That doesn't sound that funny to me, but each to their own.

 

Personally, I don't get 'raged out' by it, just find it very boring.

Been away for an hour - what have I missed?

 

Any FIGHTBACK?

One of these lines is likely to happen, which just shows that we don't know the weather for tomorrow

It's very boring, but then again, we are all fools by dint of spending any time on this thread whatsoever before about a day pre-festival, so who's to judge really?

There's a block button?

I know you can 'ignore' people...... but block them?

sorry ignore button  is what I meant 

[TiZuff]

that blue line looks scary. generally looks to be ok across the board. the mean is very nice right about now.

[AdrianH]

The 06hz pressure ensembles have actually improved a good bit. The mean still suggests unsettled but there are now more runs building high pressure in for the weekend. Of course there are worse options on the table too!

You must be so fun at parties, and glasto for that matter. Aware that this an 'act' or 'character' you play each year into the build up but f**k me that must be boring and sad. People's first time on here; bit weird you sitting here all day and pissing on their parade.

Horses for courses. Some take joy from it, other are apathetic and some get to see their character flaws laid bare and can go away and work at being better human beings.

😆 - you bugger! Yeah that looks pretty much like it tbh, and for me at least after 8 hours in the dark snake with rain to ensure all my gear is properly  soaked through!

Could be this though!

Mate, it's just the weather, it'll be grand 😂

 

All will be good once you get to the farm, you just might need wellies.

Reading the 2016 thread for some light relief.  At this stage (the Friday beforehand) the site was under water.

Amazing. I have a vague recollection at one point I was confidently predicting we'd be back in trainers before the end of the weekend.

Wasn't there a load of "still time to dry out" merchants that year?

I've suppressed majority of memories from that weekend. They return to the surface whenever anyone shares that vid of Jez from WorthyFM tentatively toe-tapping at a patch of grass on site which is clearly floating on about 18 inches of bogwater.
