Hi all. After lurking in this forum for the last 3 Glastos I thought it time to post and to thank Jackone for his great work. Like a lot of other Glasto-goers I obsess about the weather in the run-up, and this thread is always my first stop. I agree with duggyfresh on the above - the site dries out very very quickly. Eavis & co maintain a strict policy in the weeks before of keeping foot and vehicle traffic away from the camping fields and other vulnerable areas as much as possible so as to minimise the 'churn'. The site drains very well, and a bit of sun and a stiff warm breeze (both of which look to be likely after the coming wet weekend) will work wonders. The real enemy is the combination of pre-saturated ground, further rain during the festival, and 135,000 pairs of feet - this was 2011's deadly cocktail. In terms of the state of the ground, bear in mind how dry it was in the weeks leading up to this recent unsettled spell (some of the earlier pics of the site show a lot of dry and deeply-cracked mud) - I think the site will take a lot of rain before it gets anywhere near being saturated. This is a huge contrast to 2011, where it had rained constantly for weeks before. So, a lot can still change but if the current forecast persists I think we're on for a nice one, irrespective of the rain over the next 4 or 5 days.
