Worst August Ever?
Discussion
Nope, deffo NOT the worst ever August.
Its sunny here and its not been that bad. From what I understand last year (obviously) was much worse and technically parts of the country have seen much worse. Memories are a wonderful thing - of course it never snows like it did when you were a kid? Guess again - remember the M11?
I wonder how people coped before access to records was the norm?

It's been a lovely afternoon here (Derbyshire). Just been for a run in the Riley, had coffee and cake at David Mellor's place (Q: what did he design than many of us see every day when we're driving?)
Nope, definitely not a bad August day here - the rest of the month was a bit iffy on occasions though I couldn't say it was the "worst ever" 'cos I wasn't around for much of "ever".

Been a mixture of cloudy/sunny here in London.
We've had a MUCH better summer than last year, where we had about 4 weeks over April/May, and then f
k all the rest of the year apart from a short spell in Sept.
This years its been consistently warm/hot from April right through to now, with some regular (bit not overly dismal) patches of showers and hard rain, lasting a couple of days at most.

It's clouding over and getting ready to rain again.
The weather forecast looks gloomy for the weekend.
I always thought August was the reliable month for heat and sunshine.
Is this the crappest August ever?

Statistically August is the wettest month of the year in the UK.
