Isn’t the weather usually better this time of year?

It still feels so chilly and it’s forecast to be two degrees next week in the night where I am… what on earth!

Yes 😭😭😭.

Yes!! I'm freezing. My FB memories are showing me having drinks outside the last few years 😔

Yes remember hot hot lockdown 1 was!

I'd have said this was a pretty normal April mix.

It's pretty warm here, the cat is lazing in the sunshine.

Oh I loved that time! We were lucky enough to have a lovely garden and spend loads of time out there.

Highs of 9 degrees here on Monday and Tuesday, it's ridiculous!

"Ne'er cast a clout til t'may be out"

I’m in the south and the forecast between Friday and next Thursday is just cloud every single day!
Sun came out today but decided to bring a really cold wind with it so I was back in my thermals and coat.

It's beautiful in Yorkshire, DS has been out in the sandpit in a t shirt today!

Keep taking my pram gloves off the pram thinking “oh we’ve finally hit spring” and then having to put them back on two days later 😡

Gorgeous here in Cumbria - 16 degrees and sunny since Monday. I had a riding lesson in a t-shirt yesterday

I'm glad it's still cold! I was hoping to be thinner by now but I'm still fat and happy to hide under layers!

Climate change !

I actually don’t mind the temperature (although would prefer it a bit warmer), It’s the lack of sun that’s such a bummer.

Do you know that feeling when you go to holiday in a hot place and the heat hits you as you step out of the plane? I had the reverse yesterday coming back. The cold! 🥶

it’s a lot nicer today where I am, sunny and mid-teen temperatures.

Not always. I remember it snowing in April previously

Yes. My birthday is this weekend and for the last 5 or 6 years I've been in a beer garden or someone's garden celebrating (can't remember what it was like years prior to this) this will be the first year in a while I won't be doing this. Glad it was my 40th last year and I managed a party in my sister's lovely garden!

I'd say it was about the same? Quite a variation really

The may (hawthorn flower) is out round here though... But if the old saying means the month we've got a bit longer to go.

It's pretty normal for April but chillier than the last few years. I love a warm spring, but the wind is hindering any warmth the sun has given today.

Last year wasn't great nor 2021. 2020 was lovely.

Yup it's a lot chillier than it's been over the past few years. The forecast for the whole of May is dreadful. I just hope we're not going to get one of those shite grey. wet summers. I can't bear the bear the thought of another winter.....

It's been gorgeous here in Perthshire this week. Wall to wall sunshine and 14 degrees!

Been sunny in Central Scotland last few days. Granddaughter went to nursery minus wooly tights!

God I can’t stand a grey summer it’s so utterly depressing, waking up to grey skies every day really saps the life out of me, I too don’t mind cool temperatures so long as the sun is shining.

The last time we lived over here we had a shit wet summer and although it didn’t make us emigrate, it didn’t help. Now we’ve just come back for a year and it’s crap again! So blame me really.
