Most sites seem to suggest slight rain, with some nice, but cool days.......

as someone said, a bit like 2003................DEAL on that i will.

None if i remember correctly. Been to every Glasto since 95, and only muddy years were 97, 98, 04, and 05.

If we get weather anything like as good as in 2003, I'd (at this stage) be amazed.

Prospects will continue to alter, but just now I'm doubting if they'll head anywhere near as far in the hot and sunny direction, as we risk things going in a rainier one.

So watch what you're DEALing for -- you want 2003, but you're just as much if not more likely to get the considerably nastier and muddier 2004 ...

Which had one lovely warm sunny day in it (the Friday). Current forecasts aren't really offering that yet.

The forecast will keep flip-flopping around at this range...but a trend i keep noticing with the GFS model is it keeps toying with idea of pushing high pressure in around Thursday whereas the main european model is'nt playing ball just yet.

Don't worry about those temps William. All forecasts at this time frame are in low-resolution at the moment. Those forecasted temps don't have the strength of the sunshine modified in....so add on at least 2-3 degrees (providing it's also saying sunshine!)

[ukdaasfan]

Yeah... just looked at that forecast.... if it happesn I will be the fuirst to doff my cap to them....

Still packing my warm clothes and waterproofs....and my spare arch in case of flooding...

'Clot'??

On the Saturday just gone, I believe, Metcheck were predicting over 100mm of rain either over the Glasto period itself, or in the five days leading up to it from the weekend. They are still predicting a fair bit of rain on Friday and Saturday coming up, with some more outbreaks (albeit less in millimetreage) on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

And as ever, consistently, their temperatures are rubbish, which means any pre- or early- Festival rain will be hard pushed to dry up.

Metcheck are all over the place, and have a very long track record of constantly changing. Expect wild moodswings (on drugs) from them over the next few days.

Indeed, their operatives (who are not people but computer models) are on drugs. Tenner Huey, who's a professional meterologist I think, has suggested we take no notice of them.

Hard not to take notice, I know, but ...

Please don't get excited over Metcheck, even when it's been updated very recently. Or over any other forecast that's out of date!

ETA : Just to overemphasise : Stop quoting Metcheck as if they;re the fukken oracle!!

I think the main reason people (including myself) keep referring to Metcheck as it's very pretty to look at. It gives you all the info you need in lovely little timed segments - what more could you want? You can't expect them to actually accurately predict the weather as well can you?

Steve Murr hasn't been on since May 27

I expect him back with full charts by Weds!
