Bwah.
Ha.

That will be suitable for probably about 30% of the time. We've had a heatwave for the last fortnight or so, but it looks like a cooler snap is coming in now...
Basically, the English summer is getting hotter (climate change). But it's still pretty inconsistent, and climate change is also doing odd things to the cloud systems. So, some of the time you'll have hot days - these days London can be as hot as New York in Summer, so 30 degrees or so (celsius); outside the London microclimate the temperature drops a few degrees, but picks up again in the deep south - say, Cornwall. But intermissions of clouds and cooler weather are frequent, and torrential rain from a clearish sky is one of the standards of the English picnic season. Expect sycles of humidity followed by thunderstorms. Most people carry a brolly, or invest in a waterproof sunhat, or just resign themselves to the fact that every so often they will get soaked.
The North Welsh summer....well, let's just say you might want to bring some long trousers. And long-sleeved tops. And possibly a sou'wester. North Wales is a beautiful place, with many fine features, but let's just say you don't go there for consistent sunny weather. |
