Anyone else enjoying the change in the air?

The cooler breeze is refreshing and the rain was needed.

Idontknowhatnametochoose · 07/09/2025 22:17

No I miss summer.

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 07/09/2025 22:07

It’s still pretty warm here - SE. TBH this afternoon it was warmer out than in. It was windy, but the wind was noticeably warm.

In the South East they've been mostly good. Although interpretation varies. At some point in the middle of summer last year I said it was a good one and I was told I was wrong and couldn't be enjoying it even when I was literally in the middle of it.

Interpretation and what one views as a good summer is definitely personal.

Statistically though last summer was cooler and wetter than average and for some areas the coolest summer since 2015.

There was the odd, very brief heatwave. Think mid August and September was nice.

It’s moving into very high humidity tonight but thankfully down to 21 degrees and much lower humidity tomorrow ( SE)

No this year was good. The last few before this were not. It’s not usual to have a good summer here, it’s lucky if we do..

I feel tricked! I was rejoicing in the start of Autumn and today's been bleeding boiling to quote FND.

It’s so much quieter

I know, isn’t it great?

Yes me. I love the change into autumn. No more heatwaves for a start.

I’ll still never believe a pumpkin latte makes up for 6 months of cold, rain dark though

Nor me. I bloody hate autumn. Christmas and New Year are OK but, otherwise, life doesn’t restart until March.

Yep! Can’t stand it. It has been teeming here today and I feel really sad

CalzoneOnLegs · 07/09/2025 18:17

@ConnieHeart same here, Dorset it’s beautiful, breezy and everything’s been freshened up with that welcome rain we have had. We had a 15 second thunder roll about nine am today and a small burst of rain.
the very best thing is the cool at night

Even though I don’t live in the UK I go quite often and I only moved away last September. I never really enjoyed the summer in the UK. The unpredictability and the fact they are always short. For me they are never pretty good but I understand pretty good for the UK.

God, what a horrible way to live! Can you not find anything positive in your day to day life?

ConnieHeart · 07/09/2025 18:03

It was roasting hot where we live yesterday, South West so I've hardly noticed any difference

Glad I’m not in the Uk anymore! Love the summer 🤣

Conversely, as a summer lover, I’m actually looking forward to my cold water lake swims through winter . They’ve just installed a sauna by my lake so will be a quick dip then sauna. Maybe that will boost my mood through the dreary months!

I don’t feel as tough going in the summer but I do enjoy it.

Gettingbysomehow · 07/09/2025 17:52

The only thing I really miss about summer is wild swimming. I absolutely love it. Im not brave enough to do it in winter although my friend swims all year round.

Projectme · 07/09/2025 17:36

Ah I love autumn. My favourite season of all 🍃🍂 we often get lovely weather in September in the UK...

PossibleIm · 07/09/2025 17:16

Yes

DappledThings · 07/09/2025 17:15

It's absolutely roasting in London. I'm heading home for a cold shower. My feet feel like they might actually catch fire

SepticPegsSepticLeg · 07/09/2025 14:03

No, its bloody cold 😞

Livpool · 07/09/2025 14:00

No - I hate it. It’s grey and miserable, and teeming here. It is depressing

ilovesooty · 07/09/2025 11:56

No.

Pricelessadvice · 07/09/2025 11:49

I love it! I’m in my element now- hoodies and jumpers and woodland walks.
