Double figures arriving tomorrow after a 2 month break. To be quite honest with you i'm not looking forward to it at all.
My latest forecast has rain for the next 5 days constantly.

With night temps at 6c at the lowest.
I don't like muggy humid weather its annoying and a nuisance. Having sunshine and single figures is what I want.

And this is why time and time again I tell British posters not to bother with Mild weather because mild weather in the British isles nearly always means cloud, drizzle and rain coming from those dreaded Azores.

Never, again. Get out my sight drizzle. Thank goodness i'm going to Spain in June because I don't think I could cope with another 13c drizzle filled summer.

I'd love to just get on a plane and leave this country for 2 months every summer. I hate summer here. I hate it.

Wanna trade? It gets tiring enduring 90-100°F heat indices in July and August especially with stinkbugs crawling everywhere (damn you, Japan, for having the same climate as our east coast)

I thought I'd put down on a calander to see when the snow fell here. Pretty neat to see like this.

The highest totals came on a Saturday then a Friday.
We had snow every day of the week but Monday had the least amount
Notice after the December 29th snowfall we had to wait 42 days before getting more than 2" of snow.

Maybe in NI, but in most of the country mild weather in March and April means dry/sunny.

London weather forecast 14 days - Rain risk - Wind direction - HDD CDD

I prefer 15C and rain over 3C and sunny in the winter anyway.

But lets face it the south east of england is the only place in the uk that gets a even tolerable summer. South east of england covers are very small proportion of the country.
