We didn't get sleet here. I feel strangely cheated.

blue skies and evening sunshine here, a bit chilly for May but perfect conditions for an evening walk down the canal towards Horbury.

wasn't trying to weather boast, it was ominous dark clouds on the horizon and there was a significant temperature drop on the return journey

We're going to transition directly from why is it still fuckin cold to OK now it's uncomfortably warm aren't we.

Yes, and in the same day as well (see tomorrow in South East England for details).

I am in the Waterstones cafe trying to dry off as even with an umbrella my clothes got soaked. Might be a good few hours yet
― Pinefox reviews Reviews (wins), Monday, 17 May 2021 14:12 (two years ago) link
I got caught in a downpour wearing a not very sensible jacket. Was mainly relieved that it didn't come with thunder & lightning because receiving megavolts from the heavens is definitely not on my bucket list.

Sunny in Holborn but the puppy’s obedience class got called off an hour before we were supposed to go, then rain, then sunshine for the 45 minutes the class was supposed to happen.

Yes, it's alternating between sun and torrential downpours here.

Not only is it miserable pissy rain day every day but it's fucking freezing. It's nearly june and my clothes are still cold when I put them on in the morning.

It reached +30°C (86.5°F) in the Arctic today. Hotter than pretty much all of Europe right now.Truly exceptional for any time of the year but mind-boggling for May. More updates to follow. pic.twitter.com/2CTTykUW3F— Scott Duncan (@ScottDuncanWX) May 19, 2021

Had to help someone clean out guttering using an extendable ladder today, like fuck did I go up it though. Your gutters, your funeral. Maybe we should have checked the forecast, a thought for next time. Luckily no-one slipped and tumbled to their doom.

this thread title has taken up residence in my mind and this morning I would like to report that in Cambridge we have the most miserably pissy rain of the year so far, a little more than drizzle, but enough to need an umbrella, accompanied by a gusty wind and a 10-degree drop in the temperature, and falling on me without pause for apparently the next few years.

Utterly drenched walking Widget the whiplet back from Lincoln’s Inn Fields but mood brightened by seeing 20 of the Tartan Army running for the pub. I am staying indoors for as much of today as possible.

Forecast to be thundery showers all day. There have been four rumbles but that's it. Plenty of rain though.
― Being cheap is expensive (snoball), Sunday, 25 July 2021 15:57 (two years ago) link
I’ve learned not to put too much stock in forecast thunderstorms, feels like more often than not they don’t materialise - I guess they are more unpredictable than other types of weather or tend to be more localised or something
― Woolf & Stein 3d (wins), Sunday, 25 July 2021 15:59 (two years ago) link
