Frost here overnight but now its 12c... damn that daily mail weather.
yea thats normal weather for this time of year? but the scare articles come out.
I've noticed people are even scared of the rain these days, even light rain I will see hardly any people out and about.
Rain doesn't bother me at all, used to stay out as a teenager and get soaked all the time, it's just rain..
you'd think it was acid rain with how people are..
Worst weather imo is when it's windy as hell, which it often is up north. struggling to breath, struggling to walk, on a bike you feel like someone is pushing your front wheel sideways.
also likely more dangerous than a bit of rain or light snow.

One of the worst Winters I can remember for the amount of rain, also the lack of sun!

a lot of flooding is down to councils doing nothing to prevent it imo, Blocked drains etc they just don't care.Rain usually doesn't bother me at all, but when it goes on and on and on...... Flooding fields, peoples homes then it bothers me

City centre park here overflows every time it rains, there's a drain one one side of the lake thats clearly been blocked for about 10 years
literally you go there and theres a bonfire worth of sticks next to the whirlpool like drain hole. barely any water flows through because it's probably just full of mud and blocked.
No money for nothing in this country.
I bet everyone knows of a local road that half fills with water every time it rains, and I bet that road has a drainhole where the water pools

Living room temp is 23 at the moment! South facing bay window just soaking up the sun. Any warmer and I’d need the Aircon

Still in Mirfield, says fog, car covered in frost but sun just getting through, may burn off, that would be nice

Beautiful blue sky, freezing weather but couldn’t see much at all.
Guess who was driving east….

Nice to have to wear sunglasses out again.
It's too sunny.
It's too sunny.
I absolutely hate this weather. Been out for a walk today. It's good to get out.. But man, it is grim.
Rain is relentless this winter.
Been like this for years and seems to get worse. Shame it doesn't get cold like it used to 15-20 years ago.
Really hope can manage to emigrate somewhere drier soon.
Hot/cold doesn't matter. It's just constant gloom that gets to me.

Been lovely where I am today, bright blue skies and plenty of sunshine. Bit warmer than it has been too. Feels like Spring’s around the corner at last.

Some gusty winds again tonight. Seems like only since I moved into a house where the neighbours have annoying windchimes have we had gusting wind at least once a week.

Fed up of Winter now - yes so many old chubby folks on here prefer it 
but its just the worst time of year by a million miles, makes life hard, makes you feel tired, makes doing anything outside 10x more difficult, zero benefit to it - roll on spring & summer!!! Get my life back again !
