It absolutely shat it down on Wednesday morning - I remember the Festival advising anybody who had not yet set off yet to delay their journey while they tried to deal with the carnage.

Wasn’t really thinking of the Wednesday, we didn’t get there till late because people were advised to delay.

I think there were two showers, both overnight/early hours of the morning. Then Sunday was mainly sog.  It wasn't hot, but I don't remember it being super-cold.

@bennyhana22 was rained on more than me - was that it, or was there more?

Perhaps Muse was miserable on the Friday?

Only thing that can do one is the fuckin GFS (which isn’t that bad either)

Muse would be miserable whatever the day, whatever the weather.

I didn’t know the forecast in 97 but I did know I could barely see the a303 on the way there as the rain was so heavy so it was a good clue. Bin liner poncho and carrier bags inside boots the whole weekend! 

Very similar experience

[Madyaker]

Wednesday and Thursday looking good at least, and the rest looks at the very worst to be slightly wet. I'll take it.

Starting to become more worried about the wind than the rain tbh. Its a bummer when strong gusts send the sound everywhere. Hoping its not too blustery

It's going to bring us the best news 🙂

Looking forward to it. 

This will be the one that decides whether I go and buy wellies tomorrow, or just take my very waterproof / decent walking boots, and get wellies there if needed in an emergency.

What kind of water levels would get you buying wellies?

[Glastonlocal]

For me its shin high wading

[briddj]

WEDNESDAY

Totally dry, highs of 24.

 

THURSDAY

Totally dry again, high of 25.

The low is slightly more threatening.

Sure the boots will be enough now; just a boots/trainers decision. I left my walking boots in the car in 2019.
