Same - currently 12°C here 🥶

Whatshallabee · 01/06/2024 08:29

Still in bed with the electric blanket on.

Funnily enough OP I'm in NZ and it's the first day of winter here and it's been, if not quite like a summer's day, certainly a late spring one at 21 degrees.

flatpack1 · 01/06/2024 08:32

At least its not snowing. I remember that happening in the UK before at the beginning of June

CeeJay81 · 01/06/2024 08:33

It's mix of sun and cloud here in Wales. Makes a change from all the rain, we are having 3 dry, nice days on the trot it seems 😲.

HemmAyes · 01/06/2024 08:35

Scotland and it's sunny snd to be 20 degrees today

frozendaisy · 01/06/2024 08:36

I'm still necking vit D supplements because I don't trust the "sunshine" levels yet!

Does anyone remember a few years back when it was colder on the summer solstice than the winter solstice? It was 14 degrees on Dec 21st last year....

Simonjt · 01/06/2024 08:37

Its currently 22° in Stockholm, likely 26° by mid afternoon. What on earth is happening with UK weather this year.

Mprecheclogsboard · 01/06/2024 08:38

Not so bad here so far today but yesterday was horrible and the heating even clicked on.

bluetopazlove · 01/06/2024 08:38

Oh Don't know where you are living but round here has been lovely spring days .

Chypre · 01/06/2024 08:40

South west here - sunny, clear, degrees should get well into twenties today. Wind is cold though, but in a sheltered garden it is already very pleasant.

ShowOfHands · 01/06/2024 08:41

We are away on the south coast and it's only 12 degrees here but will be 18 by lunch.

The children all needed sun cream and were in the outside pool 4 out of the last 7 days.

Seems about right for June.

WaltzingWaters · 01/06/2024 08:43

Cornwall and it’s actually a lovely day, blue skies and sunshine. But yeah, it’s been a bit pants in general so far, hope some sunshine stays put for a while (all summer).

BitOutOfPractice · 01/06/2024 08:46

Where is “round here” @bluetopazlove ? Bit of a pointless post otherwise. 😁

Well here in Essex at least it’s not actively raining. That’s the best I can say.

FatLarrysBanned · 01/06/2024 08:47

South Devon coast here - clear blue skies and it's warming up already. Laundry will be out on the line today 🧺

PuppyMonkey · 01/06/2024 08:49

Predicted to be 17 degrees where I am today (Notts/Derbyshire border). Nice and sunny at the moment so it could be worse.

I’m looking forward to an evening where I don’t have to sit underneath a blanket for warmth some time soon.

LeftLegRightLeg · 01/06/2024 08:52

I've got 57396 loads of washing get through this weekend after our holiday and it's overcast and cold and miserable 😩 The tumble dryer is gonna be working overtime.

Coastalcreeksider · 01/06/2024 08:54

It's quite nice here on the south coast at the moment but last night I changed into long jeans from cropped leggings, put bed socks with slipper socks on top and a large cardigan just to watch TV. When that didn't work, I put the heating on.

Electric blanket is back on the bed but it is only on low.

soupfiend · 01/06/2024 08:56

Where are all you people on the south coast. Im on the south coast.

As long as its dry and breezy, your washing will dry
