To wonder why the weather is so crap?

[fortunatepiggy1]

When will it stop raining.. I'm sick of soft play...

Cancel the cheque

I am happy when it rains in the week because I hate it being sunny when I am at work (just think of all the better things I could be doing!) but if it rains at the weekend I am seriously fucked off.

I went to Cornwall camping in the summer of 76 - in June and it rained every single day. Never book a holiday when I'm away - it will always rain

It's normal

It's not normal, its much colder than usual and the weather has been most abnormal.

bc the winter was a bad one and is imprinted on people's minds, snowed four times here, before Christmas and after so has seemed like a long winter, and it hasn't gone suddenly warm and sunny like it has on a few previous years in contrast to mark the start of spring.

all this changes next week tho... :) :)

It's been so horrible for so long my mental health cannot take it much longer. SAD is real, my daylight lamp does bugger all, honestly this morning I actually considered googling 'where is sunny right now' and getting a round trip flight booked just for a few hours of sunshine. It is miserable.

I think the weather has a lot to answer for!

It was a rare sunny day in the Lake District yesterday, we went out and spent money on boat rides, fish n chips, ice creams. Strolled around in just tshirts, feeling relaxed and happy.
Better weather would improve the UK's economy and mental health!

The westhet is different every year. Imagine that

It really normally is warmer this time of year.
My birthday is early April so I remember.

Yes rain is normal but not as cold as this.

Westhet?! The weather, however, may be a different thing

What does @ohyoubadkitty have to say about it?

Yes weather is different every year but usually it is warmer by now.

Just don't go to soft play! Therein madness lies
I love the cold months but it's gone on too long. I have a nearly 4 year old now so I appreciate garden playing weather and a just walking one year old who is desperate to explore outside. We had some nice walks planned.

The last six months have been consistently shit weatherwise.

But it absolutely HAS to end soon.

(I've been saying that for months now).

Climate change.

(Doesn't help that people don't understand that global warming is the overall average temperature and that areas can be colder).

But then the climate has always dramatically shifted and changed. It's the manmade bit that's controversial.

Certainly different this year. I have started to do a little gardening and lots of plants are covered in a thick layer of moss which is quite hard to disentangle them from. The climbing plants have tiny little leaves growing, usually they are bigger by now and there are far more brambles growing in the gravel than other years. It all looks very sad out there.

Are people surprised at bad weather at this time of year? It’s snowed in May several times!

You'll be delighted to know that the end of next week is forecast to be a wonderful 21 degrees and sunny. I'm unpacking my flipflops!

I’m wearing socks in bed as my feet are freezing. Facebook reminded me that we had our first bbq of the year last year on Sunday. It def feels crappier this year. I blame Brexit.

It’s freezing and my daffodils are only just starting to come out!

It's April, month of the big bag, need room for umbrella, sun cream, hat scarf & gloves plus the layers you are removing coz it it warm/hot too.
Month of every season in one day sometimes

Here in Leicestershire it snowed in early December, January, February, March and, for hopefully the final time this year, on 2nd April.

There have been colder winters, but this has been definitely the longest winter I remember.

You are definitely not being unreasonable. I looked at the weather for Orlando the other day, where are my family live, and it's 30°. I don't usually miss Florida for many reasons, but I do miss my sunshine. And the ability to wear shorts until Christmas

It's pouring in Orlando too today!

Ooh yes lots of rain in Orlando today. But sunny and 26 degrees tomorrow!!

It has been a very wet winter! My garden is about a month behind where it was last year! And moss everywhere...
