I never thought I'd say this...

Overheal

...but its been two weeks since the last time I had rain here. Its starting to drive me crazy. Its been 29 C.

I guess I just got used to the Irish system, where you won't see your own shadow for months on end and live inside a rain jacket.

Finally though I'm starting to see some clouds. And by the look of the radar there is a big rainstorm just an hour or two out.

Hurry up...

Look, **** you Overheal, I hope the rainstorm tears down your house while we are all sitting here with over cast skies and you rubbing in that ye had lovely weather!!! :P

RATM

Thank god I'm not where you are, OP. I tend to get sunburn pretty bad. Go Irish weather. :pac:

Want some rain badly? Swap houses for 2 weeks, you'll have to pay all the flights of course.;)

Overheal

I'm just saying its like... its like being Institutionalized. You think you'd be happy moving to Lanzarote? You would not.

I've been getting burned a little bit just from going to the shops n'things. Still pale as a paddy to be fair.

True, i thought you were in the States. Even read wrong, thought you were in California.

Futurism

Yeah I'd say that would be a bit much after a couple of weeks.

How is it over there apart from the weather?

Overheal

Alright. Kinda reminds me vaguely of a town I used to live in in the Northwest when I was only a tiny little sh!t. Charleston would be worth a visit. Lots of history.

According to british met office a summer heatwave is on the way folks ......

Mr.Lizard

Thats right! You get all our coastal weather. We just had a massive High Pressure system run through which is why it was so dry. So yeah it may just be on its way.

Dude, you have to take part in one of those civil war re-enactments.
I'd say they're brilliant.
Then tell everyone that you you are sick of Washington and want to secede.


As for the weather here, I had to close my bedroom window for the first time in 3 weeks today. We had a decent run.

We have actually had a good spell of weather for the last few months. Its strange to see sun out this early in the year!!

I like it when it's sunny and kind of cold at the same time. I hate sunny hot weather, and by hot weather I mean anything over 20 degrees.

I have to disagree. If we had the climate where we could wear shorts and tshirts out everyday it would great. Anything under 20 is cold for that.

I moved from Ireland back to Perth in early autumn/spring. I really missed the cool evenings and the damp mornings, but one thing I didn't miss was the relentless rain.

The two summers I spent in Ireland were the wettest in decades, apparently.:(

KTRIC

The weather here in Munich is annoying to say the least. We have temps up to 35c in the summer, winter is snow and lasts for 3 months. And to top it off the seasons are actually defined :eek:

Give me a damp wet day in Ireland any day. At least I only had one wardrobe and non of this fecking seasonal clothing. :mad:
