Ugh, shaken from deep sleep at 2am by world's loudest thunderclap.

yes siree
i couldnt sleep until about 230am.
had just been watching the channel 4 show on the referendum, and then the thunder and lightning started. perfectly foreboding weather for the vote today i thought.

Slightly disappointed that unless I've slept thru them (diazepam) we haven't had any proper good thunderstorms, just some impressively torrential rain and horribly muggy conditions

I'm in WC1 so it's easy to think a noise like that is something important getting blown up. Took ages for me and weather to settle down.

transport - trains AND buses - were typically late/congested today. can our transport system handle any remotely difficult weather conditions?

So hot in Fife. At least for my pale, ginger, celtic tastes. Sat outside to read for less than an hour and I got a little burned.

Yesterday in London (Holland Park) was my ideal: 19 degrees with a nice breeze, and slightly cloudy so you're not getting uncomfortably burnt sitting outside in direct sunlight.

this weather makes me think i need one of those jackets i had as a kid, where you could unbutton/unzip the sleeves.

Yesterday seemed like the first day of a nice summer, but it's back to rain today. Maybe brighter later?

it was *unbelievably* rainy these last few days for July. this year's weather has really matched the general mood and the generally dreadful news.

Yeah we'll get a late summer when Jeremy gets into #10 innit? Novemberish is a very late summer.
Somebody was trying to break down months into seasons the other day and I don't know how it fits. Assuming that it is roughly equal division of 4.
Does summer or spring get marked by the appearance of May, as in Hawthorne as far as I understand it. i.e. ne'er cast a clout til may is about is actually about another name for the plant hawthorne not the month. Or so I heard.

I wish it were even but in reality winter lasts about 5 months and autumn often seens to be over in a fortnight

I'm regretting not getting a thobe when i had the chance.
I seem to have developed a surprising tolerance outdoors for 35 degree weather in the Gulf but British trains are unbearable and i can only imagine what the Tube is like.

Took refuge in a pub (well, to be honest I would have come here anyway) and now some bagpipe student is attempting to busk in the street. I like bagpipes as much as anyone, but Scotland the brave played badly for hours is infuriating.

I've been looking after a whippet today and he's not happy about the heat. He is intermittently happy to receive an ice cube every hour, and I'm on the iced coffee.

My labrador struggles in this heat, he has only had a short walk today and the poor old bugger is absolutely knackered.

we've got a lurcher who is basically a supersized whippet and she is just flat-out zonked all day long when it gets like this. it is basically only stupid humans who persist with doing stuff in this heat.
