The Weather Thread 2024

On the pressure ensembles, the operational is a total outlier

Met Office (still not in range for local forecast)

 

UK long range weather forecast

Sunday 23 Jun - Tuesday 2 Jul

Predominantly fine and settled through the period and for much of the country turning much warmer than we have seen in recent weeks. At first some thicker cloud could bring some outbreaks of mostly light rain, this mainly affecting western, especially northwestern areas. However for most it will be dry throughout, and likely to turn increasingly warm as we move into next week. There is a chance that this could persist for much of the rest of the period, turning increasingly hot, however by mid-next week we see a large range of outcomes. some of which allow for a return of much cooler conditions and northerly winds for the latter part of next week. However the trend toward much warmer conditions is preferred for now.

It's even funny how on the 1st Jul it has a complete drop in pressure, I'm not putting much stock in this op run (at least until 10:30 😬)

Sunny, few white clouds, light wind on site ATM

Ground must be recovering hugely across the site after last 4 days Skip?

Feel like if this one is bad also + The Met Office getting jittery it's firmly in the worrying territory.

Why would this be the case considering averages / ensembles suggest otherwise? Surely this is an outlier?

Key period is around T120-T150. We want high pressure staying over us, not shunted out to the east else it opens the door to the low pressure systems.

If anything its actually showing that low pressure will be in less dominating this coming weekend 🎉

[albinolove]

Is weather always this stressful or is it just the UK in late June every fricking year?

Well yeah that's why i'm confused as to everyone's panic. the report this morning seems a complete anomaly compared to the other reports. 

 

1st year at Glasto and admit this the first time i've ever looked at weather reports in this much detail, so please anyone tell me if i am reading the graphs wrong!!

The apps won't have factored in the latest information at this point.

 

The "last updated" time keeps ticking along nicely, and still looks sunny. I don't know exactly what "last updated" means mind

This massive green low is our enemy.

This is a disaster.

Apple weather app is lovely will be going off that thanks

[AdrianH]

High pressure is getting pushed away again on this run (not good). The low pressure is further south though (good) as it might allow high pressure to build over the top of it and keep us in warmer air

Can we declare war on the low pressure system and shoot it down?

f**k the green low. The BBC knows what it's on about. I'm not even going to re-check it later 😂
