Does anyone else find it's very cold?

I know we are going through a weather spell right now. The temperature on my phone reads 7C and that's a daytime temperature.

Casting aside the 7C reading on the phone. I'm very much feeling a cold and a chill in my body. I saw my mom and she was a long sleeved t-shirt. I am wearing a hoodie and a cap indoors. I'm definitely feeling the cold in my body. Usually in the winter and when it's very cold, I feel it in my tummy with cramps. The cold goes through me.

Are other people feeling that it's this cold like a wintertime coldness or is it just me?

I'm in Southern Germany .It was minus 6-10 degrees last week at night. 18 degrees plus today and tomorrow its going to snow again with minus degrees at night again.Not unusual for April though but really hate it when the winter does not want to end.I'm freezing also .Just made myself some peppermint tea to warm up.

It's snowing and sunny here at the moment. It's bitter and biting. Went to the allotment earlier and now I can't get warm 😱😫

Cakemonger · 11/04/2021 18:41

I'm so fed up of it. Counting the days until it gets warmer...

I am absolutely freezing. I won't warm up until I've had a scorching hot bath.

I feel bad for moaning after schnubbins' German temperatures of minus 10 Shock but another Yes it's bloody cold here! Getting very impatient for some warmer weather and some sun to enjoy.

I had my parents round for a barbecue and we all ended up huddled around it, eating the burgers at speed so my poor parents could get home!

I have a photo on my phone from this time last year. We're all in shorts looking tanned and the children are in the paddling pool.

I'm still taking a hot water bottle to bed for my poor freezing feet. We've had overnight temps of -2c and snow flurries every day since last Sunday.

@transformandriseup Not sure where you are, but its no change here for next week - still minus temps overnight and no better than 8 or 9c with a north wind.

I’m in SW London and it’s certainly very cold for the time of year. According to the Beeb weather, the air is coming straight from the Arctic, so not really surprising.

VerityWibbleWobble · 11/04/2021 18:59

I've just stomped downstairs after taking a hot shower trying to warm up, moaning about the fact this time last year we were in shorts and T-shirts, in the garden getting a tan.

This year I'm still in knitwear polo necks and have cranked the heating up again to boiling because I'm so cold.

CodMouth · 11/04/2021 19:01

Yes it feels cold here too (London) even though it’s sunny.

Tomorrow morning will be 1c according to my google weather.

I've been pissed off about this today as well. We went out for a family bike ride earlier, it was cold but sunny. I had a thermal long sleeve top, sweater, puffer jacket and wax jacket on. Still freezing. And then the grey skies arrived and wind got up, and it hailed all the way home. So fed up of it.

PickAChew · 11/04/2021 19:21

It managed it!

Does anyone else find it's very cold?

@thenightsky I am in Cornwall.

It has been snowing a bit here too this weekend and the wind is freezing.
The temperature is meant to be over 10/12 next week which is a start I guess. Normal Easter temperature is around 15-18 degrees though.

I live in Canada too, but on the West coast where the weather is very similar to England. All the Spring flowers are blooming but it has been really very cold and windy. Only 3 degrees early this morning.

Zenithbear · 11/04/2021 19:36

Freezing here and hailed yesterday and today. Heating on all day and winter duvet back on the bed. I was wearing shorts two weeks ago.

UrbanRambler · 11/04/2021 22:09

We had snow here, down on the south coast. Very wintry. April is often very changeable but apparently the weather is going to warm up a bit towards the end of the week. Our heating is staying on - I'm so thankful we have decent heating in our home.
