Glastonbury Festival 2010 Weather Forecast
Current Forecast Emphasis (Latest update: Sat. 26 June, 21:50hrs BST)
As indicatedÌýinÌýmy previous forecasts, Glastonbury 2010 continues on a settled and hot note for Saturday and Sunday.ÌýDry weather has prevailed since last weekend at Pilton and the parched groundÌýisÌýnow set toÌýremain underfoot until the end of the festival.
Overnight temperatures at Worthy FarmÌýwillÌýremain very comfortable between now and Sunday: by dawn, falling to low double figures (10-12C). It'll stay dry andÌýsettled nocturnally between now and Sunday night, with some local mistiness by dawn.ÌýÌý

High pollen counts and -Ìýas you'd expect -Ìýhigh UV levels will remainÌýa feature into Sunday's fine weather.
ItÌýwill continue the dry, largely sunny and very warm theme experiencedÌýon Saturday,Ìýas a southerly drift up into the British Isles keeps temperatures high across all of southern England. Much as we saw on Saturday, expect a maximum by mid to late afternoonÌýaround 26-28C, withÌýa veryÌýlow chance (<10%)Ìýof showers. So, it's very likely that Glastonbury 2010 will enjoy dry, fine conditions right through to it's conclusion.
And how I wish I was there to see Stevie Wonder - my muscial hero (and his brilliant bassman, Nathan Watts... will he also be on stage? Please let me know!).
Enjoy - and thanks to all of you who have been visiting the blog this past week.
