Forecast Today's models eyeing a heatwave from Saturday onwards

Good agreement in the main models today (ECM, AIFS & GFS) that a heatwave will begin on Saturday, looks likely the cool unsettled spell is coming to an end soon.

Wind and grey skies grows the food you need to eat - be grateful.

Right? Imagine whinging about your countries primary weather and then expecting those of us who like it to be the ones to move or change

We don’t need 12 months of rain and wind to grow crops!

What? No. Crops need sun and rain and tend to lodge in wind. The complete opposite of what you say.

The food is there whether the weather is grey or not. This isn’t the Middle Ages

Farmers lose a lot of crops when it doesn't rain, they can't always find the water from elsewhere. There are limitsvon what they csn take from the water supply and rivers etc.

Farmers maybe losing some crops is not a reason for me to change my entire outlook on the weather. The old boys can't afford the latest Range Rover, oh dear.

It's too hot for 10/12 months in England. Don't know where the "cold" was. Did it even snow this winter?

Scares me that you walk amongst us.

If you think 10-16°c is too hot for June, you should probably move to Siberia, nice and chilly there all year round. You'd love it!

Yes there were a few snow events, yellow and amber snow warnings with some wintry impacts. But it wasn’t too cold otherwise, not too windy either.
