We have ideal festival weather here today... Sunny and warm, with a cool breeze and the odd hazy cloud for the occasional break from the heat.

That's basically what we are looking for. Is ANYONE forecasting that?

An unsettled period of weather is expected during Sunday and Monday with rain or showers across most parts. The heaviest and most persistent rain is likely across central and eastern parts on Sunday, before brighter but showery conditions move in by Monday. It will also be windy, with a low risk of gales in the east. Feeling generally rather cool, especially in the east. Thereafter, a north-south split is likely to develop, with northern areas staying unsettled with further spells of rain, heaviest and most prolonged in the west. Whereas southern parts likely to see some drier and brighter interludes develop for a time between showers, before more unsettled conditions return here later in the week. Temperatures still rather cool in the north, but probably recovering to near average elsewhere.

Hate to do this, but according to The Met Office (as at 4am this morning) - we are fecked !

out of interest, how accurate have all of these sources been recently? have they predicted this weeks weather correctly? did they predict the sunshine the other week down to the hour?

think its going to have to be a "pack the poncho, waterproof pants, wellies AND sunscreen, straw hat & flip flops" sort of affair, which does not aid in my mission to finally acheive the fabled "one trip" from the car :suicide:

Today's update

Metcheck are forecasting 0mm on the monday, 0.2mm on the tuesday, 0.2mm on the wednesday, 0mm on the thursday, 1.7mm on the friday, 1.6mm on the saturday, 0.8mm on the sunday.

Which would make for a quite dry festival, 2008 or better.

Accuweather are forecasting 1mm on the monday, 1mm on the tuesday, 1mm on the wednesday, 0mm on the thursday, 2mm on the friday, 1mm on the saturday, 1mm on the sunday.

A dry festival, 2008-like.

Netweather say there will be a dry monday, rain on tuesday, a drier wednesday, a drier thursday, a bit of rain on friday, a bit of rain on saturday, a drier sunday.

Because they don't predict how much rain, this isn't very helpful but sounds 2008-like.

The Weather Outlook forecast 0mm on the monday, 0.6mm on the tuesday , 0mm on the wednesday, 0mm on the thursday, 0mm on the friday, 0mm on the saturday, 0mm on the sunday.

That would be a completely dry festival.

The BBC say it will drier and brighter in the south but with bands of light rain.

The Met Office say drier and wetter spells - but with the south being drier than the north.

The Weather Channel say that there is a 10% chain of rain on monday, 20% on tuesday, 10% on wednesday, 20% on thursday - no forecasts after that yet.

yr.no forecast 0.5mm on monday, 0.5mm on tuesday, 0.3mm on wednesday, 0mm on thursday - no forecast after that yet.

Weather Online won't release the 14-day forecasts for local areas for free, but for London they forecast 0.4mm on monday, and then 0mm every day for the rest of the festival.

Weather-wherever forecast 0mm on monday, 0mm on tuesday, 0mm on wednesday, 0.1mm on thursday, 0mm on friday, 0.4mm on saturday, 0.9mm on sunday.

Dry festival.

XCweather forecast 0.3mm on monday, 0mm on tuesday - no forecasts after that yet.

Conclusion: Every website currently forecasts a dry festival. :D

I'll keep doing these summaries every day to save everyone from scrawling around different sites.

Taken from the netweather 'model output discussion'

Frosty039, on 18 Jun 2013 - 12:12, said:snapback.png

Yes, while a long way off in forecasting terms, Glastonbury may actually be dry and warm this year (on current output). The question is how the site managers manage this weekend's rain – if indeed that rain does hit the SW badly. The track of that low is still far from certain IMO and we have seen major downgrades many times before.

Does anyone know how much rain fell in terms mm per day in 2011? Its the only glasto iv been to and want to compare these forecasts against it. It seems a few people on year rate that as a bad year due to the underfoot conditions but i never really thought it was that bad. Friday evening was poor but apart from that it was just a bit hard work getting from place to place.
