We're down at Glastonbury 2016, as the opening Thursday of the festival gets off to a muddy start.
Yesterday saw early arrivals at Glastonbury hit by severe traffic problems as revellers eventually arrived to wet and muddy conditions, caused by a week of adverse weather.
Fear spread among festival-goers earlier this week, as video footage emerged of the ground bursting with water and the site resembling a water-logged boggy trench.
But we're on site, and truth be told, it's not that bad - just that standard level of intensely thick, Glastonbury sludge. Fortunately, conditions look set to dry out, with the BBC Glastonbury weather forecast now starting to look a lot more promising. Check it out below.
Thursday 23 June: Sunny intervals and cloudy though humid conditions, with a high temperature of 19°C.
Friday 24 June: A day of mostly sunny intervals, with the chance of brief but heavy rain in the early evening, as temperatures peak at 18°C.
Saturday 25 June: A high temperature of 18°C, through a day of mostly cloud and sunshine.
Sunday 26 June: Cloudy and humid, with temperatures at 18°C.
Meanwhile, those arriving on site today are told to expect traffic queues, but it has certainly improved since the chaos of yesterday.
Due to the adverse weather and traffic conditions yesterday, the tribute to the late, great MP Jo Cox will now take place at The Park at 4pm today.
Performances at Glastonbury kick off this evening with appearances from the likes of Seth Troxler, The Smyths and Clean Cut Kid - as well as rumoured 'secret' appearances from Two Door Cinema Club and The Last Shadow Puppets.
