  1. I agree. It does that to me too. it isn't ridiculous at all. It's related to hormonal activity in some people. So those who criticise us and say that it's just being silly to get a bit low in mood when the dark season arrives need to learn a thing or two about how the brain works.
  2. Still has warm air over the UK though so it will probably be storms and not frontal rain I would of thought.
  3. The average high for Stanley is 14C for both January and February, and it rains on 17 days each month. So this isn't wrong thanks. Src, Source: Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia Also "johnholmes" don't get fooled by the rainfall averages, just because it doesn't look that high the rain comes in the form of drizzle and frontal rain that goes on for hours, and happens frequently, so it still is a horribly cool damp feeling summer. Denying that is just wanton obtuseness TBH.
  4. I heard a few rumbles of thunder earlier and its light raining. It is bin day here as well though today so that could be what I heard.
  5. I'm not addicted to anything weather thankfully, I think if I was I'd probably be in need of a shrink. I mean there are more important things in life...
  6. The UK has one of the coolest summers in the world. You couldn't really find a much better place if you like cool summers. Even subarctic parts Canada and Russia often has warmer summers at much higher latitudes. So people wishing on even colder than average temperatures really need to stop this trolling and really find a way to perhaps relocate to Iceland or Svalbard which has summers more to your taste. How about the Falkland Islands? At least the UK actually own them, and you might be able to get a transfer. Endless 14 degrees, cloud and drizzle for you to languish in, all summer.
  7. Maybe not, but then it should be a lesson that charts over 5+ days rarely become the reality and showing them does often raise some people's expectations. He also does cherry pick charts, from certain days, missing out less good looking days.
  8. All I've seen Frosty doing is posting charts over 5 days ago bigging up any warm or settled weather constantly all summer, with most areas not getting anything like the kind of weather that people's expectations (not mine though) are played up to.
  9. I expect that you missed much of the heavy rain events did you, I would bet that you must have got a lot less rain than I did locally. In fact I think that's probably the case seeing as you are over on the coast there, that missed some of the storms. That would be indicated by the stats.
  10. Cos in some people's cases the amount of rain in the month is important regarding agriculture and more important reasons then whether the month felt wet or not. It would maybe have been better in fact if the rain had fallen more evenly distributed throughout the month, than in a couple of bigger rain events from the agricultural perspective, but if July had been really truly dry there would have been some serious problems growing my plants properly, thankfully it wasn't too bad but if July had been drier than June I would have been worried.
  11. Looks pretty good to me http://www.wetterzentrale.de/topkarten/fsavneur.html
  12. Anomaly charts happen to show an objective picture of how temps and rainfall deviated from the average. We all know "Impressions" people have can vary wide and far even regarding exactly the same thing. Let's make climatology and weather into the science it is supposed to be and not some silly opinion fest with people making silly judgments about how the weather "felt" to them. Anyway it's been average rainfall here in July but June was dry,, however parts of eastern england can classify as almost semi-arid some years. Temps bang average, or slightly below, NORMAL.Totally normal NOT WEIRD. Get IT? And I don't pay any attention to people with amateur weather stations, met O figs only. Amateur stations are never set up properly or WMO certified equipment and always read 1 or more degrees to high.
  13. Temps have not been "well above average" except on the 1st July. In fact most of June had very cool nights. The CET for July also came in below average. It has been an entirely normal summer. As with rain, the east of England can be very dry, nothing weird about that. Anybody can take a look at the met office anomaly charts and see the temperatures have been entirely normal.
  14. Could do with the rain. Let's hope it comes in the form of thunderstorms.
  15. There's been a big east/west temperature gradient across the country no.1, and no.2 difference people feel the same conditions differently anyway. I would suggest though that anybody who has found this perfectly normal british summer too "humid" and uncomfortable is living in the wrong climate and really needs to think about relocating to Iceland or northern Norway. Seriously. Some poeple have to live in places like Singapore or Brazil, thats "Humidity". Some of the trollish comments I see from certain members on here are rather akin to somebody living in Kuwait City exclaiming "It's been a bit on the chilly side this summer" when it failed to hit 50°C all July...
  16. Probably about a 5, not too bothered if it doesn't snow much. Can take it or leave it.
  17. Am I too late to add my guess. I will guess for 17°C. Some late warmth maybe.
  18. I like 'em. Like to sit outside and eat in different surroundings than indoors. Also I love burgers, sausages and all that good stuff. And cool refreshing cider (or another drink of your choice) out of doors on a warm balmy evening.
  19. OK thanks. I no it reached 37 at heathrow so i guess 3 degrees higher is 2 much. Well I will try and make a stevenson screen (but my carpentry skills are pretty crap tbh)
  20. Monthly stats for my town in July. Can you help me tell me if my weather station could be set up better. I think it might be overexposed. Max temp: 40.1°C on 1st Min temp: 6.4°C on 31st. Avg max: 24.9°C Average low: 12.7°C Thunder days: 7 (we were in the only location to get every single thunderstorm event this month). Rain:69mm SunL 190 hours Overall it was really hot for the first half, and more average for the second half.
  21. Well maybe, but who wants to sit outside at 7PM with the barbecue in september, when you can't see anything because the sun has set?
