The Weather

Post by CUSSIE01 »

Couldn’t find a thread dedicated to the weather so thought it deserved one. I can’t remember a sunnier start to the year in Northern Ireland and it seems to be the same all over the UK. Is it solely down to global warming or just a freak summer ? Anyway, off to the beach with the pup & a picnic 🏖️☀️

Glorious here in Sunny Suffolk cussie. Didnt take houndie out yesterday as too hot. Will try and find a shady walk for him today, he's a 35 kilo Basset Hound and doesn't enjoy the heat at all! We've had loads of BBQs already though...

Gorgeous here and looks to be for at least the next week and a half.

Bit worrying now, no real rain for 5 or 6 weeks and resevoir levels were already 10% down on last year two months ago.

Gorgeous here too, just parked up in our next village & a had nice walk to the Garden Centre for coffee & slice of drizzle cake.

I've never been so tanned by this time of year.

I love the thought of wearing as least clothes as possible, shorts & t-shirts every day for the last couple of months.

We don't have anywhere near the rainfall here on the East coast as the West side of the UK experiences.

Brilliant weather but we do need rain, and lots of it, hopefully at night :)
I was across IOM at the beginning of May and it was dry there as well, like Ireland and the west coast of England, exceptional weather.
We are an Island , we are surrounded by water but are clueless with de-salinisation , but we are exceptional at letting little boats in :x
Last weekend I did 30 miles (roughly 15 each day) walking across the moors up Grassington and Kilnsey moor, then round the river Nidd the 2nd day..

It is indeed Swannie.
I did a 65 mile cycle sportive on Sunday and was absolutely bollocksed at the end of it due to the heat.

Scorcher here today Swannie, probably the hottest this year although the Atlantic was as bitter cold as ever, there are parts of my body I probably won’t see for a fortnight. As you can see our young man loves the beach.

I’m with you BB, bloody things slapping off the soles of your feet. Better with a pair of leather sandals and a pair of white socks pulled up to your knees.
