The Great British Weather

Blocked

Don't worry, I'm going to order a water butt and rainwater diverter so it will be bone dry until November

My neighbour (weather forecaster) put me onto https://www.wxcharts.com/
Great resource. Long term maps.
Weather looks shit for the next 2 weeks.

Merde

That's a lot of rain. Gah. I need gills.

I follow this guy and he does quite well, still sitting in the fence for the end of this month though.

I do not miss being a part of this conversation, I used to feel so cheated on those years when a summer didn't really happen... Hope it improves soon...

I don't know what you lot are on about. It has been t-shirt weather on the Suffolk coast today. Fair bit of sun too.

Do us all a favour and divert it through MTB-idles front room, would ya?

Installs rain water diverter and water butt. Rain immediately stops only to be replaced by freezing temperatures and a wind like that from from Satan’s ass

Fuck you weather fuck you

Mwahhahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Fucking sick of this now.

Next: crushing heatwave

You guys should try being chubby. Really takes the edge off.

Working on it.

walking home from work tonight got soaked and it was fucking freezing
UK weather is shit

Someone on here recently wrote that Summer doesn’t happen some years, and cold rainy Spring transitions into cold rainy Autumn over a week or two.

Please someone tell me that isn’t true.

We had summer in March.

Here it was summer if you had a south-facing conservatory but step outside and the air was more than a little fresh.... still is, in fact.

Folks - this is not a DRILL! - its gonna be 22 with the sun out this long weekend! Lap it up - might be the best we get.

But doesn't the sun 'bring the idiots out' ?

driest ever april, wettest ever may, go figure

I remember years where you barely saw blue sky, the temperature barely got above 20°c and then it was Carnival and you knew it was effectively all over... Rare but crushing all the same...

I would find it very difficult (read impossible) to switch back to that kind of situation, I fucking love the sunshine... Undiagnosed SAD guy here...

But doesn't the sun 'bring the idiots out' ?

Yes. Idiocy is solar-powered. Still wouldn't mind some warm weather though.

this sun this morning feels incredible. Have we made it through?
