Middle of May still in winter clothing

[justasking111]

Are we heading for a record cold May. Dh is lighting the log burner again,

Heatwave is on its way thank God. Bring it on. This weather is seriously depressing.

DH has just lit the log burner haven't lit it in about 6 weeks. Ridiculous really, also I'm now gonna have to clean it all out again tomorrow and hopefully not light it again for months 🤣

You'll be lighting it again tomorrow I suspect.

I have the hearing on , I bloomin hate being cold and am hoping for warm weather next week

We get more rain in July too, here in the North West, but lets hope for a sunny and warm June.

Wish it would stay one temperature is all I ask for . My body seems to struggle to regulate between hot and cold . It was 20c last week now it's 13c in south west . Shivering but don't feel cold enough for heating confusing with rain and then sun

Winter duvet and electric blanket still going strong here !

Winter duvet still on along with brushed cotton bedding and electric blanket. Wearing thermals and winter coat to walk the dogs. Heating is on and I’m snuggling under a heated throw to watch television. Longing for some sunshine now.

I’m so fed up of it. My 8yo has an awful chest cold she can’t shake too. It’s like the middle of winter.

I have terrible heat intolerance. Couldn’t be happier at the moment 🤗

I don’t mind the cold so much but I want sun and dry! Sick of grey damp weather

Heating on. Again.
Almost no sunshine for over a week.
Someone I know has tomatoes outside which looks very shocked.

Cold weather is not lovely.

I want to get out of my winter clothes and wear summer dresses and sandals.

I got so fed up of it.. and my poorly bones were crying ...so last Weds l booked a flight to lanzarote.. flew here yesterday.. and here l am typing from a lovely bungalow l booked.. on a small quiet complex.. been laid on the patio in the sun today.. will be back home for hopefully the UK heatwave.

I'm so envious I'm not allowed to fly at the moment. 🥹

We’re going away next weekend (UK staycation) next weekend and I’m regretting all the shirts and vests I’ve brought the kids.. they needed to size up in clothes desperately and I’m leaning towards doing another haul just for leggings and long sleeve tops now..

Cold weather is OK in winter. Its not been winter for months

Always meant this to us:

I usually love any excuse to wear a wooly jumper and snuggle under a blanket but this weather is just making me anxious about our upcoming outdoor early June wedding plans...I think it was boiling hot this time last year when we booked it, silly us! Guests will all be in ski jackets and bobble hats at this rate and I will have to wear my puffa jacket over my dress!

25C this time next week. Can't wait.

I remember my beloved l mother quoting this saying years ago.

It was a big thing for Gardeners not to put tender plants out on the gardenn until the weather got better.

Praying for a warmer June.

There is an old English saying "Dont cast a clout til May is out."

An old English phrase meaning to shed or discard an article of clothing. You should never discard your warm winter clothing until the month - or the Hawthorn tree - is completely finished.

We recently moved from South Oxfordshire to North Yorkshire. I’m actually relieved to hear it’s as cold there!

@Whoknowswhatanymore thanks I always assumed may it out meant we are in the month of may but it seems it means till may is over ?
