Is this colder than most ‘junes’? So miserable

It’s the chilly breeze that makes it feel cold, that said I love this weather, no humidity and great for drying outdoors.

@juga Ignore them, it's definitely unusual and so was May. Talking about the weather is in our blood 😆

I was shivering in my coat on way to work this morning! I don't like really hot days anyway but this has gone the other extreme. Heating on every night, still warming my bed up with hairdryer, fire on in room.

Yep 🥲

I’m in the north west and used to it being bit colder in general - recently it’s been the wind that makes it feel colder as we are quite near the coast
Middle of week I was in Birmingham for a work event and was wandering around in t shirt or dresses without a jacket - even in the evening a shirt on top was plenty warm enough

Yeah that's true. Had hardly any rain here so far. Only on one day (Tuesday just gone.)

It is chilly but at least it’s dry! I saw the sun and got excited and put on shorts and T-shirt earlier this week though and I was so cold! As they say though, there’s no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing, so I don’t see why it should stop people enjoying the outdoors. In fact when it’s too hot and sunny I find that a bit too much and just want to hide!

Yeah it was a glorious June last year (and the second half of May was lush too.)

But we went on to have the shittiest July, and the shittiest August for YEARS.

Be careful what you wish for.

Really?! you really don't know what I mean?! I did actually explain it in another post afterwards, but I thought it would have been obvious what I meant!

We're literally 7 days into 30 days of the month and you're already complaining about it being 'one of the coldest Junes ever!' We are barely a quarter of the way through the month. We've got another three and a half weeks virtually.. You should only really be starting this thread if it hasn't gone above 14-15 C by the 20th or something, not the 7th!

This is today. Looking through my photos I have one from June 10th last year where I’m in a sun hat and shades in the garden, and DD in shorts eating an ice lolly.

OP where are you based? I’ve been wearing shorts all week (sometimes with a jumper, but still) and we’re is south west. It’s been grim up until end of may, but summer got here in the end. Maybe another week to wait until it rolls up north!

It certainly isn’t perfectly sunny or a typical temperature. It’s 13 degrees here and as grey as it’s been for the last few months, as well as windy. I have a t-shirt and blazer on inside and I’m distinctly chilly and thinking about getting my hoody. I have worn sandals to work twice this year and usually I’m in them for most of the summer term.

FuzzyPuffling I am intrigued that it gas been 24, and your DC have been in their pool .We are in sunny Bournemouth .and apart from a couple of days last weekend it has been chilly, and no one is in sodding shorts!I thought it was just me as I am battling Cancer ,but no the young Nurses felt it was very cold as well!

It's been lovely and warm in Plymouth.

I currently have goosebumps in my office, when at this time of the year, we would have the windows open.

South Wales admittedly! It has gone overcast now. 15c

I'll admit i put the heating on for an hour this morning.

We're always up at 5 and i'm sick of having to still slope about in my big dressing gown! 🙄

I'm in SW Ireland and it's the wind chill that's annoying me the most here too! It's been a horrible year in terms of weather, even by Irish standards- grey, wet, cold! I've had to light a fire in the evenings even up to the night before last! There's a cold wind again this morning and even though it brightened up yesterday evening, it was still chilly!
On the few occasions the sun has shone and the temperature's risen, you can literally feel people's mood lifting but it hasn't lasted beyond a couple of days, at most! I'm fair sick of it at this stage!

Yes it's been absolutely shit. We had a beautiful first half of June last year but other than that last year was absolutely shit too. Feels like it hasn't stopped raining since winter 2022!

It was sunny at 7 this morning, so I had hope! Now it's back to the default cold and windy 🙄

It's the flipping wind.

I hate the wind and when it's a cold one it ruins everything. It's sunny here today (south midlands) but that wind is too nippy to be in a vest top ect.

It was nice on Sunday. Hot even. One effing day. wow. Just made it feel worse that the day after was cold windy drizzle here.

I'm PRAYING for the week we go away to be sunny. UK south coast July. One week - pleeeeeeese weather gods 🙏🙏It was crappy last year.

I was re-watching Sexy Beast a couple of nights ago. It always reinforces my dream to move to the Costa Del Anywhere and just get leathery in my old age in the sun - but right now i really really want to make it a reality.

But it hasn't. We haven't hit 20 degrees here this month so far. We had 19 on Sunday, but that was it.

Yes, my friends in Cornwall say it's been a bit grim with them, whereas we've been lucky enough to have wall to wall blue skies.

Yep. My bingo card is ready for this year to be the "worst drought ever". They think we have short memories.
