With not long to go until this year's Glastonbury Festival, those lucky enough to have bagged themselves a ticket are now all wondering what the weather forecast will be - and we've got the latest from the Met Office.

The last time Glastonbury took place was 2017 which temperatures reach record highs with festival goers urged to make sure they were staying hydrated.

It was the year that surprised everyone as the festival which is known for its wet weather and muddy fields failed to live up to its reputation.

Rumours about what the ground in Worthy Farm will be like come the end of the month have already started - but is there any truth in them?

On Twitter, user @StanKeaton said: "A little bit of advice for #Glastonbury attendees - it's been an apocalyptic storm over Piton for the past 24 hours and it's been raining for a week. It's going to rain for the next week at least... Take a cagoule, a groundsheet, a wetsuit."

Another user @LittleBigSpoon said: "I'm just back from Wales where we had a drop of two of rain. On-site at Glastonbury Monday evening where it looks like we're in for a wet one too. Gulp."

So what is the weather forecast for this year's Glastonbury Festival?

The latest Glastonbury rumours
More than 137,000 festival goers are expected to make their way to Worthy Farm in 17 days time

With more than 137,000 festival goers expected to attend this year's Glastonbury, the Met Office has a dedicated page for the weather forecast.

At the moment it look like it could be good news, with drier spells predicted for the end of June.

A statement on the Met Office says: "Although the weather is very uncertain for this period, the most likely scenario is for a continuation of sporadic wet and windy weather, though there will probably be more in the way of drier spells too by the end of June and into the first week of July.

"Winds should become relatively light, with a tendency to turn from cooler northerly or easterly winds to warmer southerly or westerly winds which would allow temperatures to rise to normal or slightly above normal for the time of year."
