I’m incredibly fair skinned and can’t sit out in my garden at the moment without burning to a crisp even with factor 50 on. It’s 20 degrees here but feels more like 30.
My ideal weather is when it’s about 12 degrees but dry and sunny so I can sit outside with a jumper on. My DP prefers it to be scorching hot and he loves visiting his mum in Thailand where it gets up to 40 degrees during their hottest months. He gets miserable in the winter here.
How do you like it best?

I love a crisp, cold but sunny Winter day. I’m also fair skinned and it’s too hot for me at the moment!

ofwarren · 24/04/2020 15:47

I'm the same as you.
I like it just warm enough not to need a coat.

Needtobuildabridge · 24/04/2020 15:48

This weather is perfect for me. Basking in the sunshine with shorts on- Heaven!

LadyEloise · 24/04/2020 15:49

I like a cloudless sky, about 20 degrees and little or no wind.
Where should I move to, to achieve that ? Smile

Starksforthewin · 24/04/2020 15:52

Cold, cold, cold.
I also love rain and snow.

Summer is purgatory for me, and it seems to be happening earlier and earlier.😡

InDubiousBattle · 24/04/2020 15:55

20 degrees with a very gentle, cooling breeze. It's just that where I am today and it's lovely! We went on a UK seaside holiday a few years ago and everyone was saying how lucky we were with the weather forecast- it was 28 degrees every day and it was awful!!!

CloudsCanLookLikeSheep · 24/04/2020 15:56

Right now is perfect.

Wall to wall sunshine and about 20 degrees.

Unfortunately here in the NW it gets clouded later in the summer so this is the best it will likely be.

BarbeDeMaman · 24/04/2020 15:58

Sunshine. Blue skies. Early to mid twenties or with a healthy Atlantic breeze if higher. South west France is perfect thank you!

AuntieMarys · 24/04/2020 15:58

I love no more than 20 with a breeze. I burn after 10 mins with no sun cream and also have roseacea. So hot weather is a faff.
I love crisp autumn days.

Curiosity101 · 24/04/2020 16:00

I'm the same as you.

Bright sunny skies and no wind is my favourite weather. With that weather I'll take any temperature from 0 - 20C ish but ideally like it between 17-20.

I'm super pale too, depending on what source you use the UV index is around 5/6 today and I can't find any suncream Sad

Badassmama · 24/04/2020 16:00

Thunder thunder thunder! Preceded by one of those gorgeous warm days with just enough of a breeze so you can walk without getting sweaty (provided you can sit outside and bask in peace and shade of course)

EnamelledStars · 24/04/2020 16:01

This is my weather! I love the sun and heat.

formerbabe · 24/04/2020 16:01

Sunny and a temperature where you can wear a t shirt without being freezing or a thin jumper without being too hot

GreyishDays · 24/04/2020 16:02

Quite nice here. Sunny and 14 but feels warmer.

IceniSky · 24/04/2020 16:02

Blustery stormy days where you can smell the negative ions in the air but warmish.

Springersrock · 24/04/2020 16:03

Warm, clear blue sky, sunny days.

With a little bit rain over night - we have an elderly arthritic pony who is finding the hard ground very hard on her joints at the moment poor thing. Not too much rain though, don’t want the grass to go too mad

Northernsoullover · 24/04/2020 16:03

I prefer sunny days like this and I love it when you can walk around in the evening without a cardigan. I never sunbathe though.
However all extreme weather conditions are welcome in my world. I wish I hated the heat and sun though. Considering we are going to miss summer (all the fun things you do in summer)

Jeleste · 24/04/2020 16:05

Im with your husband on this one. The hotter the better!

Stella8686 · 24/04/2020 16:05

Today is gorgeous here! Near the Scottish/English border

Can't bear a breeze at the beach in this country unless very hot

Enjoy winter crisp mornings in the Lake District

Not a fan of the wind anytime tbh

Caramel78 · 24/04/2020 16:08

Ooh yes to the person who said thunder. I love thunder and lightening so much when I’m cosy at home

Cold weather. Hate the heat

Lindylooboo · 24/04/2020 16:19

Hot. As hot as it can get. I live in the US in a snowy state and while the summer is glorious, the winter months are brutal for me and I feel like I am not living, just enduring until the summer months. As God as my witness I will not retire here. I will be heading to the sun...with or without DH.

NZlife · 24/04/2020 16:21

About how it's been this week, 20/21 degrees, sunshine, light breeze. Warm enough to be outside in shorts and t shirt and not feel like I need a jacket. 25 is too hot for me, I can't stand getting sweaty & sticky just sat doing nothing!

SciFiWoman · 24/04/2020 16:27

Lovely crisp autumn day.. frosty sunny morning, warming up a bit at lunchtime to clear skies (so you can eat lunch outside!) and golden leaves, then cooling down to a lovely sunset and a clear starry sky!! Perfect!!
Usually in October, days are too short after clocks go back... Oooh and a snowy day around Christmas🎅🏼

Barkingfuckingdogs · 24/04/2020 16:30

Cool. Can't bear the heat. Am already dreading summer 😣
