Glastonbury Festival could be one of the warmest on record

In typical British summer fashion, there has already been a bit of rain at Glastonbury but the forecast does include some warm sunshine.

A change of weather pattern at the start of this week has led to lower temperatures and rain. But by the weekend, we'll have higher pressure meaning dry and even hot spells.

With the much warmer weather, festival go-ers at Worthy Farm in Somerset need to think about sun cream and staying hydrated.

You can keep up to date with the latest forecast, including pollen and UV levels by checking BBC Weather online, or via the BBC Weather App.

Friday

Friday will be fairly cloudy but there will be occasional sunny spells breaking through at times. It will be fairly blustery, so hold onto those flags and make sure tent is secure.

Despite the cloud, it'll feel quite warm, even muggy, with a maximum temperature of 25 or 26C.

Also expect quite a warm night with temperatures not falling much below 19C.

Saturday

Will also be quite cloudy, especially during the morning, although sunny spells will break through eventually with a maximum temperature of 25C.

Cloud will melt away further into the evening to bring a very pleasant end to the day with a lovely sunset.

Sunday

Another very warm night into Sunday morning where there'll be once again a lot of cloud during the morning.

Sunny spells will once again break through though and it'll be warmest day of the festival with a high of 28 C. Quite a way off the Glastonbury record of 31.2C in 2017. Regardless, it'll still be one of the warmest festivals in its history.

Remember to carry a hat - good for protecting yourself from the sun.

Don't forget your sun cream. The sun is at its strongest this time of year - even on a cloudy day.

Take a poncho or some bin bags so you've got something to sit on that's clean and dry. If it's damp on the ground, that usually means mud. A small camping stool might even be a good idea, if it's easy to carry.

And finally – don't stress about the weather. Some people believe that the weather can make or break your experience at Glastonbury. But for hardened festival goers, rain or shine, it has always been as much about the experience as the music.
