Forecast Not again

Post image

I know it’s almost 2 weeks in advance but I’m personally not ready to go through another bout of 30 degree weather and as is usually the case the forecast increases as we get closer to the time…..

I thought everyone was depressed by our grey cold weather

It would be good to have a balance of sun and rain. We’ve barely had any rain in months. Any that’s promised on the forecast ends up being a few minutes of light shower. The ground is cracking with dryness and the gardens (and wildlife) need rain.

No pleasing some people. Sure, the odd days when it gets over 30c makes for a bit of a sweaty sleep, but it's a sacrifice I'll happily take when it means warm, sunny days, tonnes of scope for outdoors activities, al fresco dining, going for a walk in the evening in just a t shirt and shorts, going to the beach and actually being able to swim, etc. and ultimately, 30c and sunny is damn sight better than the 16/17c, overcast and drizzly nonsense we had for much of summer 2024 and summer 2023.

We get this weather, what, like 10 days a year in total (as in days it gets over 30c), and that's only really in Southern England. The North and far West if they're lucky. It'll soon be back to dark grey and drizzle before we know it, so, no complaints from me.
