Stupid English weather!!!!
 
Ok - did someone forget to tell the Weather controller that its supposed to be SUMMER!!!!!!

Thunderstorms and heavy heavy rain now for 2 days - the only saving grace is that its not really cold

Im up in the North West - anyone else having 'normal' weather????

It's raining here in the Cotswolds too - set to be rainy all week apart from tomorrow, according to the Met Office. Good for the garden, but bad for the bees.

Whilst on the phone to a friend in Edmonton yesterday, it went from warm and sunny (mid 20s IIRC) to a really heavy hailstorm in a matter on minutes..seems everywhere is crazy these days.

Another crap day forecast here. Sunny and 30 degrees (humidex 35). It gets so tiresome after a while.

My daughter was doing a local horse show yesterday and it went continually from rain to sun all day - at one point they were sat there in pouring rain and i mean pouring down - with thunder rumbling over head. Poor kids and ponies were soaked. Just as you think sod this I'm going home out comes the sun and its roasting again
