The Weather Thread 2022

[Aragorn]

Good start to the week of the 20th. Though this is an FI chart this far out

YR have updated. Thats a lot of rain with no end in sight.

Time to panic. 😱

[steviewevie]

definitely starting to look a bit unsettled up until middle of June...after that who knows. I'd rather some rain than that mega hot nonsense posted above.

Poured down all night here in Glastonbury but lovely drying wind now.

Swear it changes from dreaded scorcher to dreaded washout 6 times a day in this thread

First time in the weather thread?

[charlierc]

I seem to remember the last Jubilee weekend in 2012 having at least one washout day as part of a pretty horrible sequence of weather where it rained a lot between about March and the start of the Olympics.

But then is it a surprise? Such is the frequency of rain appearing round here that predicting the British weather isn't exactly something people are known for always getting right.

18 days to go and the next 9 days look horrendous. 

Possible irreversible damage.

According to the bbc there’s 4 days of light showers in the next 14 days with the probability of rain never above 42%. I don’t think that’s horrendous.

Run in looks abit shit. That's fine. Getting all the bad weather out of the way. Not a chance in hell it continues into glasto week.

where this high pressure to the SW is could be key...all to play for...

Yeah at the 2012 jubilee we went down to London to watch the flotilla for my father in law’s birthday and it absolutely pissed it down the entire day, ended up sitting in All Bar One for 4 hours of happy hour so wasn’t a total bust 😂

Oh fuck things have taken a turn for the worse!

I really like that it looks very bad next weeks. No way it's going to be the whole month like that. 

[March Hare]

Accuweather have held solid with unsettled weather on the run in with a dry week for the festival itself.  It not over yet, few twists and turns to come

I’ve spent the day sitting out the back garden in the sunshine, drinking beer,  topping up/creating a suntan so when I finally get on the farm I won’t look like a lobster. For the west of Scotland today is a freak of nature.  Ignore the doom mongers, it’s going to be decent weather.

@The Nalreally should live here,he would just love it😊😉
