The temps are always lower than actual this far in advance--usually add a few degrees on to whatever is predicted 

Also feels much warmer outside today than the forecast indicates.

At least you’ve got a good leaf brolly to keep us dry.

"Word of warning gang, there is some absolute filth indicated for late June on the GEFS 6z in terms of unseasonably cool and unsettled but in amongst the dross there are some very summery members too, anyway, that's just my unbiased agenda free opinion!??"

I think that's the worst prediction so far, don't think even Glastoweatherwatch's scale went up to absolute filth!

Actually the worst was totally minging, so take your pick.

It was scorching when we arrived on the Wednesday in 2016. Chucked it down Thursday morning and Friday morning/early afternoon. There was sunshine on Friday and Saturday though, can remember watching Foals and it was a beautiful evening. Sunday was miserable all day.

I wasn't there until the friday and it was raining when I arrived. God knows what happened saturday - I can't remember anything about the saturday at all! I have clear memories of sunday being rubbish though, but LCD soundsystem were headlining so nothing else mattered.

Looking fine when the actual festival is on now but all day and night rain Sunday going into Monday morning, that could cause problems underfoot. Hopefully not..

Light rain/ drizzle according to the beeb though, that's ok isn't it?

[Arcticz Liam]

Can someone lock me out/ban me from this honking fucking topic. It's doing nothing for my mental well-being.

[PollyPeach]

It's all still to play for. And Emily Eavis is doing a 6 music show at the moment, which is also getting me excited.

So in conclusion: no one has a fucking clue.

Fuck! I thought @dentalplan was doing well.

The 06Z run was VERY good for us. Rain around on the Monday and Tuesday but then essentially zero rain for the whole festival.

The unseasonably cool prediction is for next weekend and that Monday and Tuesday with 16 on Wednesday and 18 Thursday and Friday. Then high pressure starts to roll in and temps rise every day through to 21 on Saturday and up to 23, 24 on the Sunday.

We're back at the TOP of the rollercoaster! The only way is....

I always though those Norwegians were a thoroughly trustworthy bunch

Thanks, I'll take this one, where's the accept button?

[Homer]

I tell you what though... how amazing was the weather last summer?!

[rubenz]

Absolutely shitting it down now in Bristol, heaviest I've seen for a while.

Think we could be doomed!

[GrowlerPhil]

Looking at the track of those showers at the moment I think the heaviest stuff will miss the site completely. It probably will get some rain in the next half hour but it shouldn't be too horrific

Once again it’s drifted north of the site - It’s crazy how many times that’s happened now !
