Weather 2016

[Jugtanion]

I thought we were fucked, but then realised I was on film 4 watching the day after tomorrow.

[Thunderstruck]

Yeh, I'm sticking on current weather. Looks fine, bit of rain etc....but no monsoon!

[Guest]

What I got from that was :

Dry all Wednesday

Thursday sunny but some showers

Friday sunny but some showers

Saturday and Sunday dry and sunny due to the high pressure?? Why are people saying rain all the time?

I'm warming to Gav again.

Were you watching  a different forecast to me then?

Weds - Dry

Thurs - Dry

Fri - Dry am possible showers afternoon/.evening

Sat and Sun - Dry and warming up!

 

Stick, stick, stick and indeed, STICK

Well if the showers on friday are in the evening through to Saturday morning then I'm not too fussed. Happy with the prospect of dry days on weds and thurs though since they're usually the best two days of the weekend.

I know it's just one of thousand interpretations, but I still remain essentially trusting of the BBC Weather site.

Whilst I realise that BBC Weather, Countryfile and UKMO are very closely linked in terms of the data from which they extrapolate their forecasts, the BBC website is, in the main very accurate in my experience.

On that basis, the fact that at the moment they have rain stopping at lunchtime on Monday, and not in forecast at all before the weather turns glorious on Sat and Sun (and not too shabby on Friday), I am happy with this. And not just because it serves my purpose, it being very positive. If the same website indicated Weathermageddon, I'd be as (regretfully) inclined to 'believe' that more than many other sources.

In precis - it's gonna be frickin' lovely.

Ha, after all the usual back and and forth frenzy and roller coster of emotions we, as always end up with the standard Glastonbury weather- dry Wednesday, Thursday, rain Friday/Saturday, sun on Sunday!

The main complication this year is that the site will already be drenched upon entry

With my total optimism and that post can we now conclude all will be just perfect and have a

 

MASSIVE GROUP HUG

To me that Countryfile forecast sounded similar to the weather we ended up with last year. I'd definitely take that again. The only difference of course is the shit weather in the build up.

[4AssedMonkey]

My thoughts on Countryfile: they STILL don't know. The data and runs still look really unpredictable beyond about 48 hours in front. Hmmmm.....

[The Nal]

Weather forecasters not having a fucking clue more than two days in advance?! 

For the record, countyfile are a bunch of cretins. Everyone involved. The producers, the crew, the presenters, that simpleton in the windmill and theres a special place in silly hell for that Matt halfwit.

Should be called c**tryfile.

Can we submit a photo to the calendar competition with c**tryfile written across your buttocks?

Ladeeeez an' Genlemen, we bring to you the bout of the century, the bout to end all bouts, never mind the rumble in the jungle or the thriller in Manilla, here we are in 2016, they've agreed to disagree at Glastonbury, to do each other harm down on Worthy Farm.

In the red corner, he's the master of disaster, with the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse as his cornermen, i give you The Nal. And in the blue corner, the only thing sunnier than his disposition is his weather forecast. He signs his name, now he's here to lay his claim....it's Ben

 

to be fought over 5 days, two falls (in the mud), or one sunblock out to decide the winner.

TV weather forecasts were so much better when they just used to stick suns or clouds etc on the map. I don't feel any the wiser after watching Countryfile
