It's been a while since I've experienced hail. I was in my car at the time so it was quite nice feeling in the midst of it all, what with all the hail hitting the windscreen and side windows.
Did your car wind up looking like this?

Strange how one of the hailstones didn't break the glass, it just flattened out into a pretty shape. Nature constantly surprises me.
 
Five inches of lovely light fluffy snow with the occasional clear-skied sunny spell. It was cold but I do have a jumper.
 
When I woke up yesterday morning there was a coating to an inch of snow on everything (enough that my truck needed to be brushed off before driving anywhere), and there was plenty in the air as well. Visibility was, shall we say, 'reduced'. The weather's been cold, rainy, and snowy for the past month, and so screwy that the forecasters don't seem to be having much luck predicting what's going to happen a day in advance. They're saying we'll finally get some warm weather and sunshine this weekend, but I have my doubts.
 
Acclimatisation*

Are you some kind of ancient alien? Nobody in England needs to care about being acclimatised, you just wake up and go outside like normal. Acclimatisation my good eye. What a load of complete rubbish. If it takes you longer than 5 minutes to get acclimatised in the British climate then you've got some very deep and crusty issues.
 
A Saturday afternoon in late May and Suffolk basks in sleepy sunshine, the air thick with warmth, pollen-moted, summer-scented. Today, I lay, propped up by two cushions, on the settee of the conservatory, lethargically reading a novel I picked up earlier in the day for a quid at a second-hand bookstall. And through the half-open window, you can just listen to the soughing of the trees and the friskful chirping of birds. I've been lolloping about all day, basically.
 
We've had absolutely no rain and direct sunlight for about 2 months. Pollen count has been high for months without end. Everything is covered in dust. Trees are dropping their leaves like it's autumn. Most of the grass is competely dead and turns to dust when you touch it. Insect swarms of otherwise rare species are a daily occurrence. Butterflies everywhere. Wild animals are dying in random places. There was a huge grass fire in a big park some miles from my house.

This is honestly the worst summer I've ever lived through. Everything's dead. There's no forecast for rain in the foreseeable future, and every prior promise of rain has come to nothing.

It's forecast to rain this evening & overnight where I am, but it has been insanely dry as of late. I've been doing sitework as well which sort of makes everything look like an urban madmax set.
 
This summer is the worst anyone could suffer through. Like, the paving slabs in my patio were so hot to stand on barefoot that I had to move the parasol just to shade part of the ground.

We had two thunderstorms recently, one on Friday and one a few weeks back. Was extremely intense rain, though admittedly only for a few hours.
 
Farmers are having a terrible year too. If this were a hundred years ago many of us would starve for real. Makes u think!
