I’m hot and grumpy and everything aches. Roll on winter!
Ooh! Ooooh! Me me me! Me! I am dying of death!
At least when you’re cold you can pop another layer on, but when it’s too hot and you took all your clothes off, what’s next? Taking your skin off? Huh? I vote against.

Nah nah nah we need to start with passive cooling first, where I’m from houses all have proper shutters that keep the heat out in the summer and the warmth in the winter. I just don’t understand why it’s not standard in the UK. Oh wait, that might have to do with your windows that open the wrong way round…
All I want is simple really, a 16° bedroom with a 10.5 tog duvet, all year long. What do you mean it’s not realistic???
Sold out 😒
Nah no winter. A very long autumn with mild temperatures please.
Currently chillin with 5-10 degree weather here in Australia, but my god last summer was crazy. This summer I hope I survive lol.
Good luck to you in the UK, must be crazy hot in your brick, tripple glazed, zero air con houses
Personally, I prefer it to be hot. I don’t like not being able to escape the heat, but at least it’s light and there are flowers.
However, I don’t like it to be this hot.
I was in Corfu in August a couple of years back. It was 40 deg C which was just painful. But it’s currently worse here because it’s just so fucking humid.
Yup. Inside is boiling, outside is scorching, and walking for too long anywhere has me dripping with sweat which feels gross AF.
At least in the winter I can put more clothes on. Hard to take clothes off when you’re already down to nothing.
20C is my preferred top end, anything after that and I start getting uncomfortable. 30C+ and I get increasingly irritable and headachey.
For me the heatwave has broken. I now have cool air blowing in the house. I just need the walls now to cool down and the inside temperature should return to normal-ish.
I find myself to be a bit of a contradiction with hot weather as I don’t do well in the heat at all and struggle when it gets over 25 but at the same time I love it as it means its nice enough to spend lots of time outside doing all sorts of things which I love and this is harder to do in winter. Plus I find all the layers I have to wear in winter annoying. Give me shorts and T-shirt any day.

Same. I used to like hot weather when I was under 30 but even in my 20s was starting to dislike it. I don’t mind a nice mild day but I could happily go through my life without every experiencing another day with temps over 25C. I still like 4 seasons, just don’t need the summer to be very hot. Maybe 3 seasons would do, autumn, winter & spring so long as there was enough daylight hours for growing gardens.
Warm is nice, the 35c+ we had yesterday can fuck right off. Low to mid 20s is alright, comfortable beach weather.
I like seasons. It should be hot now, and it is.
It should be, sure - but the amount is still abnormal, dangerous, and anthropogenic.
We don’t really get proper seasons anymore though. It’s just drizzle from November to March, actually nice weather in March and April, followed by searing heat from late May to early October and then back to drizzle again. Winter no longer exists and summer takes up half the year
I mean, I distinctly remember going sledging with the kids 3 or 4 times during the winter, building a snowman, and defrosting my car every morning for many weeks. I also remember my plants not growing as I planted them too early. We definitely still have proper seasons.
Where do you live? I’m in the east and we had basically no snow (none of it settled) and there were only about 2 weeks where I even had to scrape ice off my car
North west / edge of Wales.
Cold weather sucks when you have to get up early in the morning. The cold can be rather shocking when jumping out of bed. I’d rather not end up shivering.
I have always prefed cold. I mean I would like crops to grow all year but as an individual its way easier to deal with cold. You can always bundle up more but you have a limit to how much clothes you can remove. Granted extreme cold brings limits of its own. im on fairenheit so its like the teens where it gets bad and when it actually goes negative its pretty dangerous. I feel like over 90 is sorta like the teens and lower. its getting dangerous and then over a 100 is like under 10. Its funny though because 70’s is great and 80’s can be nice. So hot gets real bad real fast.
It’s alreet when I’m not grafting in it.
Usually it’s throwing up bars in marquees so it’s double hot. Or driving work vans with no AC.
The roads where fucking awful today. It’s scary getting stuck in traffic with no water
I don’t ‘hate’ it I just wish it was a bit cooler. :/
