The sun the past few days has been really nice, as well as the extra daylight hour! Really brightened my mood lol

Weather has been rare past few days, slightly worrying though since early and nice spring has meant fucking shite, grey, wet summer the past few years as well.

Every winter I feel like I’ve been fine. Then the sun comes out, my mood lifts, and I realise I’ve been feeling terrible for months.

Me after sitting in the sun for 5 minutes: wow I am completely drained of all energy and everything is too bright and sticky, please bring back the clouds and breeze so I don't feel like a bug under a magnifying glass anymore

You live in the right country I guess.

Yup, wouldn't live any further south than Scotland. Anything over 18-20 degrees and my circuits fry.

That's the thing that gets me about here, weather is great 9/10 times, but there's that 1-2 weeks in summer whereby you might aswell die, it's horrible.

I dream of this cool weather. I don't know the conversion rate ( simple Google search) but it hit 120 f here in Las Vegas last summer. Oppressive heat.

I always thought farenheit was basically anything outwith 0-100F was a temperature humans can't actually live in.

Probably not too bad of a way to think of it. But I know this winter we had some temps here (midwestern US) that were -10F before windchill. And we’ll have a couple of days each summer where it gets to be about 112F. But yeah, you don’t feel those temps are compatible with human life.

Feel like I've come out of hibernation. Absolutely fucking despise winter, even if Glasgow only gets a couple of weeks of nice weather it's fucking gorgeous in the sun and the thought gets me through endless months of dreich misery.

Am I the only one who hates the sun and loves the rain?

I love the rain when I'm not in it

It’s good in winter months during the night - mostly because it means no morning frost or ice.

I traveled to Scotland because I explicitly desired to go someplace cold and rainy (after being trapped in Florida for 5 years for work). I loved every second of it, except for the small fact that the red deer in Glencoe won't shut the fuck up at 3 am with their incessant braying when you're trying to sleep in your tent.
Literally my only complaint. You just know they're not saying anything interesting, either.

Love it to bits. I live in Southern England and at the beginning of this year we had some really heavy rain and high wind so I went out for a nice walk in the forest. For me, the worse the weather is the more I love being out in it.

100% think that Scotgov should mandate vitamin D supplementation in all bread.
My unproven theory is this would reduce drug and alcohol dependency
