Weather WTF

This summer is so shit

[HVC]

We're have a bit of a cold snap. It's glorious.

High of 16 today

On its 9th day?

This summer is so shit

I disagree.
Considerably better than last year which was a total wash out. We've had quite a lot of warm days this year but it has yet to become uncomfortably hot.

[Sheilbh]

I've no idea what last year's weather was like

It's been constant rain, no sun, barely ever even hitting high teens/low twenties and looking outside right now I think it's hailing

So... England then?

Also my gardening has been a disaster and I'm choosing to blame that on the inclement weather.

It's 15 degrees now and according to the BBC weather app, we might see the sun in a fortnight

Albion as it should be.

As I read in an old Encyclopedia Britannica (I think 1920s vintage), many years ago: "The British Isles have been blessed with the best climate in the world."

I have stumbled upon the perfect gardening strategy.  Leave for several weeks and let nature do it's thing.  And voila - I come home to beds of lettuce, kale, chard, chives and dill to harvest for my cooking.  With peas and Brussel sprouts well on the way.

A bit of weeding to do mind you

"Heat wave"

[HVC]

Were getting in the 40s c with humidity this week. Wonder how the brits would take it

[Tamas]

I am telling ya maybe it is my acclimatisation but 28 can feel like a proper heatwave on this island I don't know why.

[Syt]

We're getting several 32°C days next week. 15 years ago that would have been unusual, these days it's become quite normal here.
