The best weather is very cold and very sunny in my opinion.

Tbf despite my griping up thread, in Edinburgh you get two weeks at the start of September between the end of the Fringe and all the awful posho students turning up and that time is pretty sweet.

Autumn’s great. There’s no pressure to do stuff outside, but the weather’s not so bad that you can’t get out if you need to. Plus the seasonal clothes are perfect for hiding one’s hideous, corpulent form.

@1101010 reckons is 21st September, but whatever - it’s definitely a lot less summery out there today

Probably third best after very sunny and warm and very sunny and hot

Acceptable weather combinations:

basically all of them unless you’re a massive baby

here it seems warmer and sunnier than recent days sorry

Oh goody! It’s Peter G. Adultman here to tell us about how mild inconveniences aren’t actually that important and how nothing is worthy of discussion!

I’m not like a lot of people round here who actively despise the tourists and get really angry, I get it, it’s very nice here and the area couldn’t survive without them, but it is good to be able to get places without a traffic jam or buy something without queuing for an hour.

Don’t mind if it’s he same all day. But when you go out with your big coat, jumper and boots on, then it ends up raining… then sunny… then rain… then cloud. Bit of sun. Then hail.

Make up your fucking mind.

Summer can gtfo, too hot and too bright, constant sensory overload.

Autumn is much gentler on the senses, it is the best.

I think my gripe is more with the months than the seasons really

September - completely pointless
October - excuse to watch loads of horror movies
November - start is ok cos of family stuff and fireworks, rest is pointless
December - holidays are coming, holidays are coming
January / February - kill me

Too fat and hairy to enjoy hot/warm weather. I’m glad you do though :grinning:

  • The grass is jewelled
  • The silk inside a chestnut shell.
  • Jetplanes meeting in the air to be refuelled.
  • Clouds that look like familiar faces
  • The winters moon with frosted rings.
  • Smell of bacon as I fasten up my laces
  • The song the milkman sings
  • Whipped-up spray that is rainbow-scattered
  • And a swallow curving in the sky
  • Shoes so comfy though they’re worn out and they’re battered
  • The taste of apple pie.
  • Scent of gardens when the rain’s been falling
  • And a minnow darting down a stream
  • Picked-up engine that’s been stuttering and stalling
  • A win for my home team.
  • Saying a great big thank you
