Yeah wind is an awfull thing to have on the farm … leads to all kinds of shit 

Yes, someone who understands 🤣

Too hot, too wet, too cold, too much pollen, too much mud, too much dust. Throw in covid cases on the rise and £7 a pint and this will be the most fun we’ve all had in years 😂😉

Who wants a bet that tomorrow's weather won't be as forecast? 

High pressure low pressure bollocks.

Been for 2 walks today. One this morning was overcast, even had a shower. The one this after was lovely sunshine all the way.

God, a bit of sunshine makes everything better.

Gosh, pollen and wind – two more things for us all to worry about, for other people to point out the futility of us worrying about, and for other people to delight in emphasising that we should be worrying MORE about! The joys of the Weather Thread 😄 

Can't be dealing with the wind, it messes up the sound. Anything over 0.1mph and I'll going to put my AirPods in and go back to the tent until the Monday and spend the rest of the weekend tweeting at Emily Eavis for a refund.

I've seen the latest modelling of the sunset times and am very concerned about the trend of where that's going TBH. Has anyone seen the high tide times for Burnham-on-Sea? Absolute FEMA situation, we'll need assistance from the UN. And what about the phase of the moon on the Friday night? Complete annihilation.

Only have to wait 4 hours, mate!

Have we ever seen a battle between high and low like this before? Every run is completely different. It's a roller coaster like no other 😞 😞 😞

[The Nal]

Can we all the agree that the models are a load of bollocks? 

Good.

All models are useless on most things - stopped clock and all that

Not really. My company produces some of the most advanced models in my field (fraud detection) we use them with great success.

You do however need to understand they're not fool proof and have limitations. I dont know much about the weather models but id imagine trying to predict something statistically on something as complicated as climate is fucking difficult.

Can we also get a read on the pollen count. Very High today according to BBC, now that will be a disaster if that continues 

That low will sort out the pollen.

I really hope the festival is glorious sunshine for everyone. But like you say a bit of sunshine makes everything better. 2019 the weather was what made it so special for me that I will never go again due to the risk of bad weather. Regardless of the acts there if you could guarantee me 2019 weather I would be there every year

Same for me when I discovered the Hootenanny was pre recorded.

We don't want strong winds because it fucks with the sound

I’d love to have seen the GFS for this vs Coldplay mud year 2016. Surely 2016 it was just orange and green 24/7
