It's going to be the same wherever you escape to, unless you decide to live in the Sahara
Not necessarily. Parts of the world will get drier and wetter. Besides UK on West of Europe is already fairly wet. Add in climate change and it's even worse.
We had a good 2-3 inches of it in the early hours, but I slept through most of it, once the sun got up quickly gone except in the sides here and there.

Yep snow on the M5, in wiltshire, salisbury and someone said to me their daughter sent a picture from Bristol where they had 2 inches of the stuff. No snow but incessant mist murk flooding and rain here there was a 15 car pile up on the M23 last night no-one seriously injured thank goodness.
Sun actually came out today. Yes that! Couldn't believe it.

Like I said, the Sahara, most places will be wet though, maybe Antartica could be an option if it warms enough though

Air temp not high but I can see and feel spring with the stronger sun getting near spring equinox, on my standard shorter walk across the river and up to Jubilee rock

That’s a beautiful place. Like the sort of thing you see in historical movies. What river is it?
Soldato
That's the de lank river I have that at the back and river Camel at the front, de lank is fed from the moors its very natural with fallen trees left to the insects and thick carpets of moss

That King Arthur’s hall is an interesting site. What do you reckon it was? No one seems to know

Wet is not the word , I had a lot of trouble just getting home from Bodmin , the fields are saturated and farmers field run off everywhere, cut through St Mabyn was the best option, had to turn back from a worse puddle than this

Well it's dry but that easterly is biting cold , need to get down to the beach to shelter.
Btw been to landfill, had a full day in the garden yesterday.lawn needed a trim but left it a decent length for frost protection seems a shame to waste a trip to Timtagel

I'm surprised I'm the old reviving this thread after a chilly week.
It might have been mostly dry, but so grey and that mostly northerly breeze... Just so uninviting to go out in, hard to believe it's late April!
And it's expected to be similar temps but wet over most of the next ten days, including the Bank Holiday weekend.

Very cold evenings and barely any sun to warm it up in the day. Was a little warmer today. Haven’t had the heating on this late in April for a while.
That said, I don’t really want it to be too hot either. Makes work much more manageable.
