Glastonbury Weather Forecast: 2015 Festival Set For Remnants Of Tropical Storm

The Weather For Glastonbury Isn't Looking Great...
|

The Glastonbury weather forecasts are in, and depending on which one you read, things are not looking good.

SEE ALSO:

Some outlets are reporting that the site on Worthy Farm in Pilton will be turned into a mudbath thanks to the remnants of a tropical storm called Bill.

Both The Telegraph and BT report that while the festival while begin on Wednesday with sunshine and temperatures of 21 degrees, the rain will move in by Thursday night.

Glastonbury could be about to see a mudbath again

The Metro is a little more optimistic, reporting that while there will be showers on Friday, things are not “looking too drastic”.

However, the weather will stay changeable as we head into the weekend with scattered showers and sunny spells on Saturday and Sunday.

Daytime temperatures look set to stay between 18 and 21 degrees celsius for the duration of the five-day event.

Campers will be pleased to hear that they will be setting up their tents on dry ground though, as little rain is forecast between now and Wednesday.

Either way, we recommend packing your wellies AND your suncream, just in case.

When: 4.30pm at the Pyramid for Burt or 5pm at West Holts for Gregory PorterPlenty of fans spotted this clash as soon as the full line-up was revealed, and Emily Eavis has already promised that she'll do her best to remedy this one for us. Our Verdict: Fingers crossed! (credit:Caitlin Mogridge via Getty Images/Paul Morigi via Getty Images)
Friday: Wolf Alice vs. Circa Waves (02 of08)
Open Image Modal
When: 6.30pm at The Park for Wolf Alice or 6.25pm at the John Peel for Circa WavesRight, first things first - you will have other opportunities to see both of these bands. So breathe a sigh of relief, this decision is just a warm-up for the rest. Wolf Alice's set is sure to be a stormer, but it might be a good idea to ease yourself into the evening, with Circa Waves jaunty pop. Our Verdict: Circa Waves. (credit:David M.

Friday: Mark Ronson vs. Jamie xx (03 of08)

When: The Other Stage at 9pm for Mark Ronson or The Park at 9.30pm for Jamie xx Mark Ronson has been well-established for years, but the release of the '90s hip-hop inspired 'Uptown Special' - and of course, the single 'Uptown Funk' - has made him a must-see. But then there's Jamie xx, whose long-awaited debut album 'In Colour' dropped in on 1 June. And boy was it worth the wait.Our Verdict: Call us cheesy but seeing Jamie xx at The Park, as the sun sets over Worthy Farm, is something not to be missed. (credit:Rebecca Cabage/Invision/AP/David M.

Saturday: Young Fathers vs. Slaves (04 of08)

When: 2.45pm on The Other Stage for Young Fathers or 2pm on The Other Stage for SlavesMercury Prize winners Young Fathers should already be on your 'bands to see' list, with their name in bold, underlined in pen, and highlighted. But then on the other hand SLAVES. We can't even say type their name without shouting it. Our Verdict: We're cheating on this, but Slaves are on the Hell Stage after Kanye West too, so see Young Fathers in the afternoon, then run to Shangri-La after Mr West. Easy peasy. (credit:David M.

Saturday: Kate Tempest vs. Years & Years (05 of08)
Open Image Modal
When: The Park Stage for Kate or The John Peel tent for Years & Years - both at 5pmIf Gregory and Burt aren't your thing, then chances are, you'll be plumping for one of these two. Garage-influenced Pop darlings Years & Years have been hailed as one of this year's hottest prospects, while singer-poet Kate is a regular on the festival circuit. Our Verdict: Years & Years, as long as you see Kate on the WOW! Stage on the Sunday. Promise you'll go? Good. (credit:Jack Dempsey/Invision/AP/JEAN-FRANCOIS MONIER via Getty Images)
Saturday: The Maccabees vs. Death From Above 1979(06 of08)

When: The Other Stage at 7pm for The Maccabees or 7.35pm at the John Peel for DFA On paper, you could catch half of The Maccabees and then hald of DFA 1979, however Glasto's sprawling site makes this impossible. If you haven't heard of DFA, think Royal Blood but... better. Meanwhile, Orlando's beautiful voice is the perfect way to soundtrack a lazy evening in the sun. Our Verdict: Death From Above 1979.

Sunday: Jamie T vs. FKA Twigs (07 of08)

When: The Other Stage at 8.15pm for Jamie or West Holts at 8.30pm for FKA TwigsOn the one hand, there's the most exciting new female artist of the year, whose live shows are visually stunning and choreographed to perfection - but on the other, there's Jamie T. These two artists are worlds apart, but they're both fantastic festival choices, for different reasons. Our Verdict: This is the toughest choice on the list, but for old time's sake it's Jamie T. WE'RE SORRY, OK? (credit:Frank Hoensch via Getty Images/Rich Fury/Invision/AP)
Sunday: The Who vs. The Chemical Brothers(08 of08)

When: The Pyramid or The Other Stage - both at 9.45pm. This is it. You've made it this far and there's one more act between you and the end of Glastonbury (apart from the DJs you see after, but whatever, this is still important). We cannot emphasise the importance of this choice enough. Seriously. Our Verdict: No can do, this is your cross to bear. Apologies. But bear in mind that the Chemical Brothers are *mind-blowing* live. (credit:Jeff Daly/Invision/AP/Mark Allan/Invision/AP)
