Another "wonderful" day in the East. Grey Cloud, might rain, no sun again. Afer being in the "City" for a Cricket Game yesterday when we had torrential rain at 5:30pm that finished the game off, I now look at the Netweather 14day forecast to see more of the same and it getting colder in to September. 2021 the year with no sunshine in East Anglia, absoloutly the worst Summer I can remember in 50yrs. If somone else comes on the TV saying "Europe cooked this summer" or my other favourite "Global Warming means we will have more summers this hot" well they don't live in East Anglia & I might just throw something at the TV. Wheat still uncut in fields (Yes bread prices definately going up this year !) and tomatoe plants that show no sign of rippening unless you have a daylight sunlamp on them in greenhouses.
Then I read Daily Mail Headline (I know shouldn't read it, but its free) 81 degrees at the end of the week, summer on its way only to go to the Netweather 14day forecst (Which I trust !) to see 22 centigrade at best and at least 70% clous for most of the days.
So as we turn towards winter the question is, if this persists what does it mean for winter ? Because having put up with this rubbish summer at least the weather gods could be nice and give us a snowy couple of months, or are we just going to continue with the grey but temperatures at 8 or 9 instead ?
