Whats happened to summer?

Post by VEGAS »

Hi all,

well where I am in Manchester the weather has just gone from bad to worse. Gale force winds, torrential blustery rain and thick black clouds. Rivers are at bursting point in places and rising. Its just dire. :sad:

Not seen much flying into EGCC either. I think one or too diversions may be in place.

So much for summer.

Anyone seen the sun? :dunno:

I remember one back in the eighties with hardly a good day to be seen

No winter and now perhaps no Summer.

Could be the same cause..weather systems tracking in the wrong place for the time of year.

What's the bet we will have a nice September/Oct for this same reason.
