Yeah it was actually too hot, dry, and sunny for poppies for a few weeks in the early summer from May to June. And ever since then the summer has been a total wash out.
Dunno if it's climate change, or just a standard British summer.
Yeh, kind of seems like the standard British summer from my youth. Endless rain interspersed by a few days of +20°C humidity.
We've kind of been spoilt in recent years with hotter than average temperatures.
But that's the problem with living in a maritime climate. As global temperatures increase and the ice caps melt, the dumping of ice into the sea will cut off the north Atlantic deep water currents that are responsible for our temperate climate. Plus, the increasing air temperatures allow more water vapour to be absorbed resulting in heavier rainfall.
So thanks to anthropogenic climate change, good ol' brightly is going to be a fuckin cold wash out...
