Some good agreement now for a dry start to the festival. The operational run does not have much agreement from other runs on bringing the low in during the festival. The mean is a much better outcome.

The midnight run of the ECMWF continues its theme of warm dry weather, at least until the Friday.  It still wants to keep the high firmly fixed to our west, with a northerly flow, but with the strong sunshine at this time of year temperatures would still be into the low 20s.  An excellent run…

For those of us arriving on Monday, our very own Met Office model is now out to Monday night.  And what a stunner it is.  I shall enjoy erecting my tent in this…sunny and warm, temperatures up to 25c. All the models agree on a great deal of high pressure around next week, which can only be a good thing, they just vary on its exact position…

AccuWeather have finally caught up to yesterday's model runs, and updated their forecast accordingly, it does show some lightning for Saturday which is worrying, but I believe that is just the light show for Coldplay.

Not got tickets this year but can't help looking in this thread anyway. Looking at the predictions I think you will be in for brilliant weather which makes me even more gutted I'm not there. Dare I say people complaining about being to hot

Feel a bit sorry for the Azores. They've given us so much over the years and AzoreStock might be a washout.


The GFS comes more into line with what the ECM has been telling us for a couple of days… builds the high to the west.   If this all verifies, it’ll be dry and pleasantly warm, not hot.  Perfect!  🤞

Not getting ahead of myself, but I'm so buzzed that newbies (whoever you are!) might well get a dry first Glasto. Nowt better experience in the world and really gets you a chance to experience the best place on earth in all its glory! 

 

Also can more people please by your f**king wellies, raincoats, boots etc. we need to keep this good stuff up.

Latest GFS is as about as good as it gets. Low to mid 20s and dry.

 

I'm trying to not get carried away. Not a drop of rain. Warm, but not too hot. Not too cold at night. And this is coming from both the ECM and GFS.

 

Proper Goldilocks forecast

Let's get back on the bus with the 06Z!

 

THROUGH TO GATES OPEN

 

The weekend rain tracks south of the UK and hits the English channel. Still one to keep an eye on there, but in this run it's completely dry over the weekend and at the start of next week.

 

Highs of 22-23 on Monday and Tuesday too ... which suggests high pressure is winning!

 

GATES OPEN & WEDNESDAY

 

19-20 when gates open.

 

Completely dry all day with highs of 24-25.

 

Overnight temps into Thursday morning of 13-14.

As you can see from the latest pressure chart (on the right), high pressure is firmly in control unlike on the 00Z (on the left).

THURSDAY

 

Completely dry, highs of 24-25.

 

Overnight temps into Friday morning of 16-17.

FRIDAY

 

Completely dry, highs of 26-27.

 

Overnight temps into Saturday morning of 17-18.

SATURDAY

 

Completely dry, highs of 24-25.

 

Overnight temps into Sunday morning of 13-14.

High pressure really is dominant.

SUNDAY

 

Completely dry, highs of around 24.

SUMMARY

 

Nothing more to say other than SCORCHIO!

Am I allowed to say too hot? 😅
