Both were stunning Mays, but I will go for 2018 but only because it was such a relief after a disappointing first half of spring that year. I also felt like May 2020 was a bit of a kick in the teeth as it coincided with the lockdown.

*Stormforce~beka* Hopefully it will warm up very soon.

I am still wearing my winter coat.

Thinking back to the 2010s, what would you say was your favourite season from each of those years? Here's mine from what I can remember: 2010 - Winter (both sides of the year) - Both January and December that year were classic winter months. 2011 - Spring - Dry and sunny for much of the time with chilly nights in March followed by a warm April and a pleasant May. 2012 - Winter (2011/12) - There was a cold and snowy period in January. 2013 - Summer - A nice summer compared to the summers of the previous six years. 2014 - Summer - I recall July being a nice summer month that year. 2015 - Autumn - A seasonal September with alternating periods of warmth and coolness. A pleasant spell at the end of the month and in the first days of October. 2016 - Autumn - Not the most interesting of years so I went with autumn due to the memorable warm spell during mid September. 2017 - Winter (2017/18) - The beginning of a classic winter. 2018 - Summer - A classic summer with many warm or hot days without feeling overly humid. 2019 - Spring - Many nice days and warmth from mid April onwards.

A fairly pleasant day so far over here with alternating periods of clouds and sun.

I guess I am in a minority, though it doesn't mean that I want constant wind and rain. In autumn I like daytime temps to be around the seasonal average but with sunshine and chilly nights and just the odd storm here and there. I like warm weather but I equally like the cosiness of autumn and cold clear days and snow in winter. It would be nice for once to have a year that is actually seasonal. Seasonal weather is hard to come by these days.

I would say that the latter would be more reliable, providing that you like your cuppa cold.

raz.org.rain Kind of like a spring/summer 2018 redux. I have a feeling that is what will happen also. Just like with this year, I recall that we didn't have much of a spring that year and it more or less went straight from winter to summer from mid April onwards. A 2018 style summer would be most welcome for many of us.

Arctic Hare What's that weird blue stuff in the sky?

After a dull start, it is now mostly cloudy with some sunshine in spots. Turned out to be quite a pleasant afternoon.

SollyOlly Nice! What will you be planting?

In Absence of True Seasons Lovely. I see that your trees are blooming very nicely. They seem to be taking a while over here.

'Twas the first 20°C day of the year yesterday for this neck of the woods. A pity it was cloudy.

Apart from a few days in January as well as a few days in the first half of March, it has been a very dull year so far.

Hoping this spring goes a similar way to spring 2018 and then a 2018 style summer to follow. Had enough of the rain.
