it's very hilly where I live and has been raining without a pause since yesterday evening. The gutters get overwhelmed really fast here and overflow turning the pavements and roads into streams and it is quite a lovely sight until some driver twat deliberately drenches you.

some run-off outside the back window was making this steady low whirring sound all through the night, still going this morning, why the fuck was i born on this shithole island?

In Rotherham my kid's school has been closed and apparently the train station is flooded. It has been pissing it down hard since this morning.

the air quality is excellent
A+ atmos, would breathe again. On the other hand, I don't enjoy the resumption of my ability to simultaneously smell everyone on the bus. And the bus.

sat in a pub this aft, eating pizza and supping in front of a coal fire with an old pal from Berlin I've not seen in a decade and it was really good civilised fun until pub filled up with braying office boy wankers and we had to both get off - into that miserable pissy rain was so fucking depressing.

I can live with rain, but not the fear when you hear the first rumble of thunder and it is at least a 15 minute panic run to the safety of not being the tallest object for nuff acres of flat land! Saying that there are probably worse ways to go than getting incinerated by a billion volts.

This is the worst season of rain I can ever remember. Internet connection has needed openreach guys fixing it about five times or six in the last two months. It's holding up good right now but I'm not optimistic.
I cant remember the last year I noticed Spring; Winter seems to go straight into Summer.

One of the odd things it has done to me is giving me the difficult to resist feeling that it's someone's fault. I think this is perhaps a symptom of increasing convenience in life and I've always been annoyed by people who act like bad weather can be directly blamed on whoever is in charge (perhaps with the general increase in bad weather and governments not responding well to disasters but not in any specific incidents).
I keep feeling like there should be a god or magical weather man I can punch in the face for this weather.

So much more pleasurable being stuck indoors when it's raining.

Not rained in London all week.

Sunday morning it did in w12. Pavement was still wet when I went to the park about 9:30.

Same in E17. Maybe the rain decided to spare north London.

I'm south of London and yesterday was quite pissy, in spirit if not literally all day. Doesn't always get to me but maybe it was a little pissy in my heart as well.

Pissy this morning even though it was forecast to be pissy this afternoon. Probably still be a bit pissy this afternoon.

i live in the south west, and today we experienced epic rain for hours.that said, this vs the extreme heatwaves we have had. i am not so sure which i prefer.
― mark e, Thursday, 27 August 2020 19:49 (three years ago) link
It'd be nice to have some kind of happy medium instead of everything always being extremely something or other - the driest / wettest / hottest / coldest / sunniest / dullest / windiest ever.

I like weather and am enough of a misanthrope to prefer it when there are far less fair-weather wankers about ruining the glorious desolation of places I like to go. Some loudmouthed middle class Karen yelling: Excuse me your dog is scaring my child and bunches of pissed up middle-class wanker-dads playing Rounders and giving snidey looks to Alex because he wouldn't throw their ball back are what I saw last time it was sunny. Rain get's rid of arseholes consistently, and the all-weather regulars are a much better class of people.

Agree. The best time for a walk is when it’s raining
― calstars, Thursday, 27 August 2020 21:53 (three years ago) link
i can't remember the last time it really rained in this godforsaken desert and i long for it. on the other hand i know if we do get rain i'll be squeamish about it and want to stay indoors.

"godforsaken desert" sounds so cool, but I don't think me nor my panting labbie would last very long in that kind of terrain, but can totally understand the attraction.
― calzino, Thursday, 27 August 2020 22:19 (three years ago) link
the climate is the best part really, it's the culture that's the real desert

well here we have a mostly perpetual rain sodden cultural desert where you better not talk bout sophistication until you've bin to Leeds. Could be worse tho!

quite fancy living in a desert honestly. been rained on too much.
don't mind some light rain and a breeze for a spot of perambulating. just no gale force inundations, please
