My brother suggested I might like this blog. He was entirely right.
This post actually made my day. You cann't imagine simply
how much time I had spent for this info! Thanks!

The rain radar just shows one big blob.

Our climate is a test of sartorial resilience.

The ‘thermometer’ reads ‘perpetually jumper-worthy’.

Weather forecasting here is a high-wire act of managing expectations. The presenters must deliver terrible news with an air of chirpy resilience. "It's a rather damp start for the Tuesday commute!" they'll say, with the smile of a hostage, as the camera shows a windscreen wiper struggling against horizontal rain. They have a whole lexicon of softening phrases: "unsettled" (it will rain a lot), "brightening later" (it might stop raining by dusk), "feeling cool" (you'll be cold). Their most heroic act is presenting a five-day forecast where every day has a little cloud-and-rain icon, without collapsing into despair. They are the unsung psychologists of our nation, counselling us through the grief of another lost summer. See more at London's funniest URL -- Prat.UK.
