Boardsie's Holiday Weather Reports and Obs

DOCARCH

As many of us, who are lucky enough, will be heading off on foreign holibops in the coming months, I decided to set up a new thread for Boards members to post their holiday weather reports and observations while away, so as not clutter other threads (and allow others to completely ignore if they choose to!).

I am heading off to Greek Islands (Andros, Tinos and Syros) tonight, via Athens, so likely to be one the first to report tommorw morning!

#DOCARCH, challenge accepted! Currently in the Herault region of France where we’ve already had July weather towards the end of May, hitting 36/37 for a few days. Now a more normal 26. However, the prefecture has declared drought conditions already despite a wet winter into spring. More local authorities than the prefecture will declare what’s expected shortly.

That’s a long wait! I don’t really get the September holidays thing. For me it’s last two weeks of July this year. Can’t wait for a sun holiday given the miserable weather we’re having.

Avoid heat and madness of July and August! Hopefully get back to Greece again in September. 🙏

In Batsi on Andros now. Clear/sunny (as one would expect) and 25c. Always a breeze on the islands.

I like going in September because it's still proper summer weather there and far less tourists compared to the summer period when schools are off. Also it's a guarantee that if summer is crap for the most part, at least i'm guaranteed 2 weeks of good weather in September and it helps to shorten the time between then and Christmas. I tend to not take any time off work for the first half of the year other than the weekends and bank holidays but for the second half of the year I use up all my days off as holidays as I need it the most during the second half of the year.

Would love to hear a more detailed account of your trip, that group looks great, impressive credentials. It doesn't seem to have been the most active season judging by the youtube chasers. Would love to experience some of those storms and a tornado but couldn't handle all the driving!
