THE Met Office has revealed the forecast for Glastonbury – with revellers bracing for a variety of weather conditions.
With the festival kicking off on Wednesday, forecasts are taking a dip after hitting highs of 33C at the weekend.

After the hottest day of the year so far was recorded on Saturday, festival-goers can expect slightly milder weather by the time the festival starts on Wednesday.
When the festival opens on June 25, the Met Office predicts reasonably warm temperatures of around 24C between 1pm and 4pm.
This is then expected to drop off into a cooler evening with temperatures in the high teens.
There is also a 40 per cent chance of rain on Wednesday evening, climbing to 50 per cent between 4am and 7am Thursday morning.
After the weekend’s soaring temperatures, Glastonbury attendees can expect milder weather averaging in the high teens and low twenties.
Festival-goers can take Thursday to get acquainted with the 1500 acre site, with some sunny weather and clouds expected.
The milder weather might be offset by wind chill, as gusts are expected to reach around 30mph between 10am and 4pm on Thursday.
It might pay to be prepared with warmer jackets, suncream and hayfever meds -with a high pollen count and UV rating at 1pm Thursday.
As the music begins on Friday, crowds can expect it to be “cloudy changing to sunny intervals by late morning” according to the Met Office.
With Supergrass kicking off the Pyramid stage at 12pm, they’ll be met with temperatures of around 22C, as well as relatively high humidity and wind speeds.
By the time The 1975 headline the main stage at 10:15pm, temperatures will have dropped to 17C.
The chance of precipitation remains low throughout the day at around 10 to 20 per cent.
Saturday is expected to bring similarly warm temperatures, reaching highs of 23C.
The Met Office said: “Overcast changing to sunny intervals by late morning.”

Artists like Raye, Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts, and Charli XCX are scheduled for Saturday.
As concert-goers struggle to choose between Charli XCX, Neil Young and Doechii’s sets just after 10pm, they can enjoy mild weather of 17C.
The festival is set to finish on a high, with temperatures climbing to 24C.
With Rod Stewart taking the stage for the famous legends slot at 3:45pm, temperatures will peak at around 22C.
By the time Olivia Rodrigo closes the festival out at 9:45pm, audiences can expect a slightly milder 18C.
More than 200,000 people are expected to attend the festival at Somerset’s Worthy Farm.
The mild temperatures come following the hottest day of the year on Saturday June 21 – which reached highs of 33C across the UK.
Brits faced train delays and sunburn over the unusually hot weekend.
In previous years, the festival has left the working farm with churned up dirt and debris, as staff stay behind to help clean up.
There will be no festival next year as it is scheduled as a fallow year to allow the ground to recover.
