Another dire week that confirms this as the worst ever winter for these parts. Monday was breathtakingly vile and it has just been followed up by a return to the mind numbing westerly rot we’ve endured all winter long. No snow just a couple of poxy frosts that have lifted well before dawn. Same rubbish every single week. No cold synoptics whatsoever.
Day after day of horrendous windy westerly garbage but any deviation from that sends it onto an even worse trajectory of abject horror. Never before have we got to the end of February without some sort of snow cover so yet another all time low reached. Seven years of unprecedented snow drought and this abhorrent season takes it to a whole new level. We miss out on everything here now when we never used to and I’m beyond sick to death of it.
Just can’t put into words how much I hate living here in the worst era for weather in modern history. The last decade has brought the worst summer in living memory (2012), the worst pair of consecutive summers in living memory (2011/12), the worst winter in living memory (2013/14 now usurped by 2019/20) and the worst pair of consecutive winters in living memory (2018/19, 2019/20) as well as countless other totally dismal seasons that are never balanced out with the equivalent from the other side of the spectrum.
A decade of endless catastrophic misery and failure like nothing ever witnessed in modern records. Absolutely nothing to look forward to ever. Yet again the outlook is unbelievably rank with plenty of 6C rubbish likely for the foreseeable but with barely any likelihood of seeing snow or even a frost. The last few weeks where it’s still possible to get a decent snow event written off completely and yet another toxic washout weekend coming up. Incomprehensibly dire and depressing
