What is the weather forecast today for Download Festival - and the pollen count?

According to this morning’s forecast from the Met Office, it's forecast for “Sunny intervals changing to partly cloudy by nighttime,” with a high of 23 and a low of 13.

UV levels will once again be high so apply sunscreen and keep hydrated to avoid heat stroke, while the pollen count is also high - combined with the dusty elements, those with respiratory issues be safe.
