    1. The temperatures are HALF those of last year because we had a heatwave in June 2023 and this June has so far been colder than average.

      It’s not like 15° is half the usual June temperature.

      Look its a bit shit but thats part of living here. You fucks have never lived somewhere geninely hot or cold. I have. There is nothing fun about 42 degrees and yearly hurricanes.

      You have to wear a jacket sometimes. Its fine, you will be okay.

      I, for one, am happy at this prospect. Anything above 20 gets uncomfortable

      It’s cooler because it’s raining. It’s raining because it’s cloudy. It’s cloudy because there’s a lot of water evaporating from our recently warmer oceans. It’s not just here either, there seems to be a lot of rain and flooding in different parts of the world lately. Its circulatory systems will change course at some point then we can all expect abruptly different weather everywhere.

      I’m not clicking the link and funding the Waily Fail, but I guess that they are blaming Keir Starmer?

    6. I love that the idiots who were elated that global warming would mean them getting hotter summers and didn’t care about the environment are now annoyed about increased rainfall

    7. And once again I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Been reasonably sunny and minimum of 17C for the last 6 weeks or so in the south west, which is not only not half the temperature of last years heat wave, but is far from “cold”.

      I can count on one hand the amount of rainy days we’ve had since the end of April. It has so far been a fairly typical May and June.

    8. Gee I can’t imagine why we’re stuck with normal British weather, and not the abnormalities.

    9. Heat on other side of planet disturbing the polar vortex and pushing it our way as the jet meanders

      Half? Well, it was 30c last year, and absolute zero is about -270c, that means it’s about -150c outside.

      Why are people so shocked we’re having an average summer?

      Personally I’m absolutely buzzing we’ve went an entire year without a heat wave and we can stop the boring “warmest summer, so far 🤡” nonsense.

      Enjoy it.
