1st August and should be the warmest start to any month of the year.
What do we have? Yet more grey depressing garbage and getting even colder at only 12.4C
When is this utterly hideous and ludicrous dross going to end? It's just intolerable. I've been dreading winter arriving and being stuck in the house all week only able to escape from the prison cell for brief cycles/walks but that nightmare has arrived this week 3 months ahead of schedule. So bad I can't even sit out in the garden and this is supposed to be the warmest part of the year
NW'lies should be producing lots of convective downpours at this time of year with some sunshine, mainly morning and evening. All we are getting is miserable overcast grey with only brief breaks and useless drizzle. Apart from the collosal downpour on Wednesday morning but that was the highlight of the week which says it all. At least the mammoth rain rates made it feel like summer. The rest of the time more like summer in Svalbard. I doubt there's been more than 15 minutes continuous sunshine at any point since Monday evening
What the hell is going on when you can't even get a summer day that manages 2 hours of sun never mind something remotely respectable?
Even Shetland is getting better weather sitting in an area of broken cloud. Despite the cloud moving from north to south that area of broken cloud will never make it to the mainland. It was exactly the same yesterday and that managed a total of 1.7 hours sun which preposterously, despite being equal to the December daily average, was the most for five days
