Download and Isle Of Wight festivals' weather worries

With the Isle Of Wight and Download festivals taking place this weekend (June 13-15), the message at both sites is that fans should take waterproofs.

BBC Weather has been predicting rain on all three days both on the Isle Of Wight and at Download's Donington site, although optimistically they suggested there should be a few sunny intervals over the weekend.

Met Check, though, is slightly more optimistic. For the Isle Of Wight they are predicting a cloudy outlook, but suggest it will stay dry.

For Download, they predict rain for the opening two days but things should warm up and stay dry on Sunday (15).
