It's gone from looking like being dry and hot and sunny throughout, to rain all day friday (from the afternoon onwards), an absolute deluge on the Saturday (2005 storm style), followed by raining all through til the Monday.

Wednesday and Thursday still clinging on to hot sunny and dry (but humid), though that could turn to s*** too!

And it wasn’t that many pages ago that people had banked ‘it can’t be like 2016 now’ ?

They mock, criticise and crucify The Nal, but in actual fact he is the thread's equivalent of Weather Jesus

[Razza_bezza]

Wednesday and Thursday are the main for good weather for me the rest I’ll be engaged in music but like to be able to chill on the Wednesday and Thursday

It'll be completely different. 2016 had sticky mud and little rain.

This year will be basically underwater

It’s not like 2016 build up wise is it?

Been all excited for the festival all day until this update... now I'm starting to have a sense of dread.

[broken monkey]

But surely things could turn around again just as quickly with the next run of charts? Basically we probably won’t know for sure for a while yet. Calm down dearests. ?

The weather guy on ITV West just gave a  report live from Glastonbury Tor, it looked amazing just now, they did not pan out to get a view of the site though.

Met office reporting 3 days of localised flooding directly before gates open - and site is in a valley with water courses running through it! 2016 caused by floods.

It doesn't say the flooding is localised to the Worthy Farm area. Stop being melodramatic! 

[gibble]

BBC has updated and still looks ok ?. Does that not use the gfs runs?

Oh do I have to stop ?. Spoilsport 

[elbongo]

Everyone gets dragged into the randomness of those runs... it was the same last time out. And all the times before. 

 

This is why NFRNFC started. Someone at some point was right. But it's all speculation

[Nobody Interesting]

4 days ago it was looking possibly bad.

Then it changed to looking hot hot hot.

Now one run shows maybe it might be bad after hot hot hot.

In 4 days time it will be different again.

Enjoy the weekend, sort your packing and wait til Monday's forecast - then we will know reasonably well til Friday and as you open your first can on Weds we ought to know what the rest of the festival will be like.

The best thing though is we have tickets and we is going to party on the farm

Same goes for the met office. Biggest worry is the Tuesday night when camper vans arrive 

[stopwn1981]

Mr splodge report interesting over on SOTG thread:

”i know they are worried about the thunderstorms that may hit Sunday into Tuesday but if they miss it will be a dust bowl festival. ???? if they hit then..... let’s not go there shall we. “

[T-Mouse]

GEFS* is another model that's still quite positive. We don't know till we know. Prepare for both the good and the bad. It's not even close to being over

*Think it's ensembles of previous runs. Don't know tho. I have no idea about any of it tbh. Fun tho

I'm going with the ever reliable BBC forecast for now

[Dave_c]

Fuck this thread, can someone just close it so we can't talk about it anymore, it's giving me anxiety.

[Leedsladsdan]

BBC is same as Metoffice

So we've gone from sunstroke to submerged in the space of a few hours? I was mentally preparing myself for a scorcher last time I was on here. I can't take this!
