The Weather Thread 2022

As the great (but never late to an appearance) philosopher Chris Martin once said, "Give me weather that does no harm. Michael Eavis and Worthy Farm. Give me mud up to my knees. The best festival in history."

If you're worried about the weather, then you picked the wrong place to stay

That's how it starts, but you soon change your tune after being drenched continuously.

I see we've reached the 'who cares about the weather / it'll be fine whatever / if you're worried about rain you shouldn't be going' stage of the thread, excellent news. Seems to come round earlier and earlier each year!

‘A rainband is a cloud and precipitation structure associated with an area of rainfall which is significantly elongated. Rainbands can be stratiform or convective,and are generated by differences in temperature.’

Site will be like a dustbowl by the time the forecast rain comes on Friday, that and wood chippings put down in key places will stop any serious mud.

 

... I'm hoping anyway😎

I only started posting on here a few weeks ago. Pretty impressive really.

All this doesn't matter what the weather's like thing is a nice idea, but frankly it's bollocks. It really does matter.

This may be the new battle ground - pray for a deep trough!

“

It's looking like a block will be settling up over Scandi this weekend.

These can be high risk high reward; if the blocking high is more east, you just allow lows to come barrelling in shoving warm air away, but if the high is slightly more south and west, lows will still be around but scooping in more continental air from the south.

Of course, we'll need to look at the Atlantic, best case is a deep trough out in the middle allowing Scandi heights to build further west with lows stalling west of Ireland. 

If we get Mid-atlantic heights, I'm afraid there's only one place those lows will go...

The fact they’re not predicting two months of rain in a single day anymore!

Not sure that rain is enough to cause a bad amount of mud ?
