WHERE is the sun?!! It is ludicrous, I don't remember a June like this for years and I keep depressing myself with the fucking BBC weather app. They promised sunshine and warmth and now they are saying rain, rain, rain. How on earth is anyone supposed to cope? I am going to Barcelona in a few weeks, and I am counting the seconds. AARGH!

Not very helpful to show a forecast for the south with lovely weather. Is it supposed to make the OP feel better?

The OP asked where the sun was. I’m answering the question.
Like pretty much every response on this thread with posters saying it’s sunny where they are….

I'm a Glaswegian but moved to SE England 17 years ago. The difference in weather is incredible. I spend most of my time being too hot!

OP you're expending a lot of energy to tell everyone how miserable you are living where you live.

Use that energy on Rightmove.

Devon, Cornwall, Milton Keynes.
Tons of gorgeous places to live.

Oh yeah, because everyone can just upstakes and leave family, friends, job, etc. on a whim. Good lord.

Wow, Glasgow.
A bit far from here.
Seriously, OP, I get it's miserable and it gets some
people down.
However, I sometimes care about "likes", some
of them and some comments lift the mood
a wee bit!

Thank you. I have to admit to a sneaking hope that the complacent people will wake up to grey skies and a dismal forecast. That can happen, the forecast is very volatile and changes a lot day to day.

I’ll swap with you. 8 months pregnant and baking in SE England. Rain please come back!

Sorry to be unsympathetic OP... being in Lancashire, usually the cool wet bit of England I know it can be wearing. The summer when I was expecting DD (1998), the top half of the country was blanketed in cloud for virtually the whole time.

Thank you, at least you have some empathy. I hope that most of the other posters on this thread never have bad weather woes and post asking for sympathy. The 'it's so hoooottttt' moaners are getting on my last nerve.

Boiling in the Midlands today.

Surely nobody in Scotland expects a long, hot summer?!

Lovely here on the south coast. Going straight to the beach after school.
Hope you get some sun soon!

Overcast in the midlands but fairly warm (about 25C) as it should be at this time of year.

No plans to, but the 'likes' suggest you might be letting your weather woes cloud your judgement.

Jellycatspyjamas · 24/06/2024 13:12

I’m sitting in sunshine just outside of Glasgow, yes it’s a bit cloudy but not grey and overcast.

North Midlands here, and it's stunningly beautiful. 24C, due to go up to 26C later, and is set to be luscious all week. 😎 It's been gorgeous all weekend too. I am doing my 'work' (as in paid job,) in the garden. Hope you get this amazing weather soon @MsLuxLisbon

So do I, but the forecast says otherwise.
