NOAA(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) updated all of their forecasts today. The entire state of Tennessee is smack dab in the middle of a 33-40% probability of above average heat. I know it is just a prediction and I won't say they are usually wrong with their predictions as much as I would say they're usually not exactly right. Looking like mother nature is going to put the beat(heat) down on us for such a mild winter though.

It's a crap shoot people.
Lets sacrifice a wook to the sun gods they are cheap and plentiful sedated and we can find an unconcious one it will never feel a thing. And yes as Druid said it is cold in this area right now still getting light frost in the morning.

about this time last year we were all worried that the farm would be a swamp and it was going to rain every day. this, and the fact that i now have to drive through a possible 8 inches of snow on my way to see Deer Tick tomorrow, make me not trust any weather prediction. I dont know if a 24 hour weather prediction is even trustworthy at this point.

I know for certain the weather will be the weather unless the Mayans were way off base in their gravity loosening predictions and we all float off before June.
Does this news really surprise anyone? The fact that it's going to be hot in June in the South doesn't need it's own thread. If you aren't aware of the heat, the festival scene may not be for you

Seems worth discussing to me. Last year was the second hottest Bonnaroo on record and these predictions say that this year could easily be the hottest. From a public health perspective there's a big difference in managing a crowd of 80,000 when it's 98 (2007) vs 82 (2003). Or when you see someone collapse of heat stroke you could joke that it must be global warming.

Plan for it to be very hot, and also plan for rain. If it is neither then at least you were prepared. Discussing the weather is pointless, you can't control it, it's Tennessee in the summer its going to be hot. Whether or not its hot or super hot, my mindset doesn't change. Stay hydrated, avoid tons of alcohol til the sun goes down, and seek shade when you can. I'm a big guy and i stood in the Which field and roasted during Bela Fleck and the Flecktons last year, and it was glorious. Right after that I filled up on water and was good to go on to the next show.
How does June in TN compare to June in central to south Texas? Logic would say that it would be slightly better in TN but I keep reading all the hot hot hot comments. Just trying to figure out what to expect ...

It is not as hot in TN, but remember, there is NO relief from the heat. Your shelter is not permanent, you are walking on uneven surfaces, it is dusty, and surrounded by other people, so it feels much hotter.
It will drain and dehydrate you no matter where you come from if you do not respect it. Take breaks, and drink twice as much water as you think you need.
