I have just been looking at Accuweather and the forecast for my area ..East Anglia..coastal ..doesn't give anything over 13C right up until the 19th April .It says "Very cool for April". We had snow showers here yesterday and a freezing wind.
I think everyone is fed up with it now.It is bright and sunny most days but still cold.
We can but live in hope .The warm weather will probably arrive out of the blue..we will all be wondering what to wear and then moaning that it is too hot !

Now let's all be optimistic. After all it's only early April!!
1976 - Really long cold winter and there were snow showers in places on 1st June! One week into June and the weather turned hot and stayed that way until September. No rain, just long days of burning sunshine. We all got fed up and house curtains were drawn all day. I remember the first rain in September - everyone came outside in the evening and stood in it smiling.
Think positive!!
What is that old saying about the weather, lets see now, oh yes, 'Never cast a clout until May is out'. a 'Clout' is old English for a sort of jumper or sweater, so if English weather is running true to form, I don't want to disillusion you, but you have almost another two months, and then its the brolly's. I love the English weather, every day is an adventure,

It was really hot in 1976 redhelen. For a couple of weeks the temperature was up in the 90's every day. I live near Sheringham now, but at the time lived in Hertfordshire. We had been to Norfolk for the weekend and on the Sunday evening went in the sea at 11.0pm for a swim before driving home. I remember it well because I went swimming in a sundress. We had no towels and just dried off naturally in the car on the way home.
At the moment in North Norfolk it's really cold! I won't be going swimming in Sheringham just yet.
I'm with you gessoo re the may blossom ( hawthorn tree)
When they changged from the julian calandar to the present gregorian calendar, it made the month of may five days earlier than it was with the old one. I think going by signs in nature is more reliable but some folks nowa days seem in too much of a hurry to notice anythin like this.
