Felt like it was close to that watching Gerry Cinnamon. They were a few days early with that one!

Fuzzy, I am of your tribe. Anything above about 21C restricts me more than the nasty wet stuff. I'm scared now.

(Rather than swim shorts, big wide legged trousers saved me in 2019. They are not pretty and it's counter-intuitive to cover up when you feel like a dog in a hot car but the waft when you move is a game changer. Clown trousers for all!)

It never actually got that high but it was very hot for sure

Just found the full page and it was showing a lot of rain on the Mon & Tues. I don’t remember that happening at least not to the levels they predicted. Just posting to show how although there was a consensus of hot weather things still changed so within that relatively small timeframe!

Every year I watch this and is gets me in the mood.

OK, it’s Canada vs Europe. The midday run of the European model isn’t going along with being fingered by the Azores high, and keeps it much further to our west, which means temps would be only around 19/20 on the Saturday, as opposed to the 27/28 the Canada model is predicting.   Take your pick.  As ever, the closer we get to the festival, the more agreement we’ll get from the models, so we’ll have to wait and see…

Actually dont care about the temp, only that it doesn't rain on the way in...

I don't want to be rude...but what the fuck does Canada know?

Tbh, it isnt my legs, it's just everything. I only wear white T-Shirts & wear a hat. 

It's just like being in an oven. I feel dizzy, feel like I cant breathe, sweating my back out. I dont drink in it, so I'm sober as a judge.... which in turn stops half the fun.

Overall it turns into a battle to survive. It is absolutely no fun.

Id say confidence is high on that 12z though - 1030 pushing against 1010 - Id like to see the protected front lines if any.

Where's the heat forecast coming from ? Still saying the same for me but now rain on the final day? 

[Pinhead]

The pressure difference isnt great - just 5mb. Get out of my dreams and into my car.

Wear a loose shirt. The long sleeves will stop your fore-arms from burning and the collar can protect your neck.

Any weather that they need to put out a safety warning for... heat, wind (Boomtown 2019), rain.... that cannot be good weather. 

[fightoffyour]

After all I just want it to be 22C max for Fuzzy and Stevie

Same latitude as UK. More extreme version of the weather we have though so they know their stuff

[nikkic]

Is it still supposed to shit it down this weekend? 

Or are we avoiding a potential quagmire?
