miserable pissy rain

no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes. i was obviously wearing the wrong clothes to walk around the park this morning and they got worse as i got nearer to home.

I had to go out for 5 minutes on Sunday afternoon and almost drowned.

Well, there goes my plans for this afternoon.

i'll be honest i'm fucking sick of this and it's making me (more) miserable

it's cold with it too, i've put a jumper on

house on our street had their fire on last week pmsl. in july !

14 degrees and raining at noon in august is some kind of fuckery

(blah blah august is typically one of the wettest months) yeah it’s grim af

harvest is p fucked https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/aug/04/fears-of-food-price-inflation-rise-as-uk-harvests-hit-by-cool-wet-summer

food price inflation huh? sounds bad

For those of you afflicted by insect bites, ANTHISAN is back in Superdrug AT LAST.

the sun has almost kind of come out and i can smell gently burnt barbecue thru my open window and it smells like victory

Sun is trying its best to burn through the clouds here. There were some actually some blue skies earlier... but it was still raining!

it started hammering down again about an hour after i posted that

saw some dubious clickbait bollox reportage of ‘African plumes’ and an incoming heatwave that could stay with us until October. Looking for a more realistic forecast from the met office, Thursday is shaping up to be a decent free vit d summer day, low chance of rain and 25° peak. I don't mind this weather but it would be nice to have at least one day when you can have a few outdoor beers and chill in the garden.

Rain just ruined my morning run. Australia is meant to be exempt from this nonsense!

wasn't this supposed to be gone this week

Can't lie, if it means we avoid the heat of last summer, then keep the rain coming

Can't lie, I'm team let the world burn if it'd avoid weeks and weeks of miserable pissy fucking rain

Joke's on me, cos the world's burning anyway.

unless met office is fucking with me - no rain here until friday. It's actually sunny rn and not even me hanging up two loads of washing outside could make it rain. Thursday is looking very promising. I'm such a sad twat these days when a few days of sunshine arrives it's all about how much laundry will done - yippee.

days are divided into “great days for ducks” and “great drying days”

It's 44 degrees in Spain

22˚C and miserable pissy rain at 1 p.m. in August in Mississippi is a wonderful thing. It actually felt good to take a hot shower this morning.

unless met office is fucking with me - no rain here until friday

Hmph. After, what - four weeks? five weeks? - of zero sun, I've temporarily swapped England for Ireland, where it's just the same, but colder. Means I will miss the brief respite this week.

I can remember one year going to a rain sodden Newquay that practically never stopped raining only to see reports of a northern mini-heatwave from a caravan where rain patting against the fibreglass is louder than seagulls and then returning back to miserable pissy rain in the north, where normal service had been resumed.

This particular intense but relatively narrow band of rain we had today seems to stretch from Trondheim all the way out to the Azores. I just think that's neat.

Comforting to know it'd still be raining if I'd stayed home all those years ago I guess.

Current pattern of nice crisp sunny mornings followed by rainy days could be worse.

Miserable torrential rain.

I waited under a shop awning for 20 minutes during that.

The weather gods are timing the deluges to coincide with cycle commute home each day. Bastards.

Proper miserable pissy rain here in Minnesota today, making me pine for the old homeland. It'll probably turn into a prairie thunderstorm later mind which you don't really get in the UK, at least not the bits I ever lived in.

No rain is more miserable and pissier than West of Scotland rain imo.

nothing pissy about today - unless you mean the firehose piss of a pintman 8 pints deep

Had a power cut to go along with the miserable pissy west of Scotland rain this morning.

the road round the corner from me is flooded so badly that a double-decker bus is stuck in it. I'm banking on an Iceland delivery coming today so I don't need to leave the house.

Going for a run in the miserable pissy west of Scotland rain shortly. The pleasure of getting home afterwards should be good.

Glad I visited last weekend lol

If the rain had held off for literally five more minutes I would have got home without getting soaked.

this shit is not normal:

!!!!

scared for that dog!

Maybe not the best time to go for walkies.

I was worried for the dog too. Would not have let him get that close my god.

That dog grew up to be the this is fine dog

7th rainy weekend in a row?

f this sh*t

Realized today I'm not going to see the sun in this country for like 6 months now.

depressing af

Heard about this from some other friends

Is anyone else with Freeview only experiencing service loss - scrambled and/or missing channels?

Where I am that's not uncommon when it rains - and it doesn't even have to be particularly heavy rain.
