ChannelThunder Got to admit, plumes are the weather i detest more than any other, so hard to cope with with their sudden nature, so hard to sleep or work in, revolting in fact
Really enjoyed the weather today, bit of everything, snow, sleet, rain ,wind ,sunshine...you name we've had it plus so refreshingly cool at this time of year. Boy am i going to miss these temps in the months to come
Shock to the system today, down working in London, so mild and quite humid, to be honest not nice, was good to get back further North, felt much cleaner and fresher.
I strongly suspect previous stats will be meaningless soon. The changes that are happing appear to be non linear and of repeated recorded breaking margins that only 2 decades ago would have been dismissed out of hand.
Thats exactly my point.....i never said it was recent!!!!! We are changing now at a faster non linear rate since then. And that is a fact, not a opinion.
Folk should now just accept, we sit in one of the biggest oceans, with one of the strongest maritime currents at a latitude the same as Moscow in a climatic change period the speed of which the world hasn't seen since that certain asteroid hit. More energy in the system will mean more cloud, more rain. Blue skies could become as rare as snow soon.
You certainly are not the only one mate, many feel the same way. I liken it to staring up the steep slope of a dark mountain this time of year, June the 20/21st is the peak. The next 12 or so weeks for so many are the worst of the year by far, i easily find this time of year the most depressing by far.
A near enough perfect Easter Saturday and possibly Sunday coming, warm plenty of sunshine and certainly no need to put the central heating on!! Monday not so good i admit.
I find it fascinating how folk are all so different, just change the word cold to hot and that statement is exactly how i feel. Totally the opposite but in many ways just the same!
Dangerous55019 I find this time of year akin to starting a long climb up a steep mountain, the summer solstice is the summit, over that its far easier journey, the worst is over and the journey to better less harsh light levels has begun. Nothing beats those long Autumnal shadows when they first appear.
