The weather has changed for my holiday

Due to holiday in the south of France next week, and all along the long range forecast has been beautiful.

Now it’s changed. Rain every fucking day apart from the day I leave. I have to unpack all the beautiful dresses and clothes I’ve packed and change them out for rain jackets and boots. I’m fuming, I actually can’t believe it. It’s just my luck!

AIBU to just not want to go? I was due to do so many lovely day trips and now they’ll just be awful - damp and grey, any pictures I take will look awful. I just can’t believe it

It won’t be non stop rain and on the bright side fewer wildfire concerns.

I’m not going to be able to go out and do the day trips, it’s raining every day. I’m so gutted

You can't go out in the rain? Are you soluble?

It’s really unlikely to have rain all day every day. Chances are it’ll be fine with the odd shower. I get why you’re catastrophising but I agree with PP- better to be in rainy France than rainy home and work!

That is awful luck. But… You’re not stuck at home in the rain - you’re on holiday! It could be worse. I hope you have a good time regardless.
