Re: Worse summer

Yeah. British Columbia in Canada just had 120 degree weather. All kinds of people and animals died due to it. Our weather here at the time was 14 degrees Celsius which is a bit on the cool side but I’d rather be on the cool side than cook to death.

Re: Worse summer

These mussels and oysters didn't survive either. Yet another area where there might be problems due to the balance of Nature being disturbed, perhaps by global warming, resulting in very unusual and severe weather patterns:

Re: Worse summer

It’s chilly and damp but the gardens are looking glorious apart from the roses that just look soggy …everything’s lush and green.
Last year & 2019 it was a parched prairie here on the south coast.

Re: Worse summer

I am used to the cold damp weather, don't like it but used to it. What does make me laugh though is new people moving into the nearby Village or Town. They are always so please to finally get up here and begin to live their Highland Dream, one freezing cold winter usually sees them skuttling back south again.
They always tell you that they came up here on holiday and fell in love with the place.......Aye, but that was in the Summer.

Re: Worse summer

My American friend is getting temps over 100 f & thunder storms. They do get hot Summers there, but we need our Summer back, though not that hot, thank you.

Re: Worse summer

I felt cold after the few days we had recently where it was definitely hot ,thought it was probably just me until I read this .
It’s not been a good summer so I was wondering last evening how many weeks it was going to be there was a chance of prolonged sunshine .
The white/grey cloudy sky depresses me too .

Exactly, Barry.
