AIBU for loving this grim weather?

[Rubyupbeat]

So far this has been a great summer for me. I cannot tolerate the heat, my favourite seasons being autumn and winter, so this rainy, chilly weather is right up my street.
I know it is selfish, but it's not as if I am controlling the weather.
Does anyone else feel similarly?

And don't get me started on the really angry one...weirdoes indeed

I dislike weather presenters assuming everyone has a preference for a certain type of weather.

I don't share your preference but do not consider you unreasonable for it.

I dream of 23 degrees. It's currently 17 something here. I the winter I would have the heating on.

I'm in the sun in a lounger right this moment but it has rained most of the day! This cool breeze blowing the trees and the hot (but not too hot, Tommy Cooper) sun on my face is pleasant.

Yes, I prefer this as there is some sun and blue skies (in between the grey and rain) whereas the heatwave the other week (in London at least) was, for me, uncomfortable to be out in, and to sleep in.

Yes it's great OP. It's just an average British summer - or how they used to be - so I am not finding it grim at all.

Are you quite alright?

Prefer it a bit warmer to be honest.

How has people's preference of weather turned into another Mumsnet argument.
It's weather, it's pretty rotten for June and some like it some don't.
Dress appropriately, cross your fingers for August and stop bickering like high school girls

Yes, I’m loving it too, but we’re lucky that we’re getting plenty of sun/blue skies in between the showers, more like Spring weather 😀.

So many nice events being cancelled, outdoor theatre & cinema events,concerts etc I think it's a bit miserable!

Would be happier if it was dry! 😕

Yep, it's great

Only had three days of unbearable heat so far this year where I had to sleep with the fan on

Most days can get out with the dogs for a walk no problem

Yes unhinged is the word.. I think that person internally combusted 😆

I agree, unhinged and a bit aggressive.

We've had a thunderstorm here today and it was great, love storms!

We were supposed to have them here but they never materialised

I definitely don't appreciate the rain! As long as it's dry anything between about 17-24 degrees is fantastic and much better for my dogs too.

Over 30 and I start to struggle.

😂

Well at least they’ll feel a bit warmer now!

It’s awful. I think I’ve sat outside about 3 times all summer. Haven’t sat outside in the evening once yet as it’s too cold. Thick socks and jumpers on most of the time. The rain has been relentless. How anyone can enjoy this when it’s our normal weather from October to about April is staggering. I’m feeling incredibly low.

I work night shifts frequently and much prefer to drive home in the morning without the sun blazing. Also, I sleep much better after a night shift when it is cooler and overcast.

The rain doesn't bother me as I dress for it. I am absolutely loving this weather and long may it continue.

Cripes. I dress for the rain but I really would like to wear a summer outfit with sandals in July .

Absolutely!! 💯
I hate hot weather, especially if it's humid. I always feel faint and just stay indoors when I can.
Give me the British weather any day of the week. 😍

SAME! Love it

I think each to their own , if you like this weather that’s great.

I like having different seasons and do prefer a warm summer but equally I do adore autumn and winter.

I would love a few bbqs in the garden though.

It's winter where I live, and those are the temps we are having here - but with sunshine!! 🌞

And I'm desperate for summer to arrive.

I really don't understand these miserable people who just love greyness and rain, and can't abide a temperature over 20 degrees. Probably because I've never actually met one in real life.
