Does anybody else think that we need updated seasons in the UK? The traditional Spring/Summer/Autumn/Winter seasons just don't cut it anymore.

Clearly Summer has all but disappeared leaving only a pitiful "Summer Lite". A 2 week spell of nice weather somewhere between the end of April and beginning of May. This is to lull you into the false hope that the weather may actually be nice this year.

Instead of summer we now have the "Rainy Season". This tends to last from Summer Lite to the month of September. The Sun will pop out from time to time but this is swiftly followed by heavy showers, usually at lunch times or other occasions where you may have the opportunity of stepping outside!

And that leads us to Winter starting in September followed by "Deep Winter" from Late November. This takes us miserably back full circle to Summer Lite.
