Hahaha, aye you're right 👍 Chanking New Word Suggestion Very cold. Additional Information This word is very common in Kilmarnock and the rest of Ayrshire. Perhaps it is used elsewhere in Scotland too. I assume it has a scots origin. Example: "it's chanking out there". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just battered down most of the afternoon and ended up with gusts of 30-40mph so cancelled it. Went to the shop though and it was really weird as the flag on the junior course next to me were flapping one way but 200 yards away were the opposite direction!! Bloke came in saying he'd called it quits after three holes because his mrs didn't piss him off that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time in 40years the temp has not creeped above 20c by this point in time in the year, not to worry as Thursday onwards looks sweet 👍 Edited May 24, 2021 by hampden_loon2878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeedom Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Climate change predicts more chaotic weather patterns, so what we are seeing now with excessive rain and cold spells is something that will probably happen more often in addition to more extreme heat waves and droughts. The extremes are only going to get worse over the next decade, it's quite scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDYER63 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Can’t believe the difference from last weekend to this weekend. I picked the wrong weekend to go away. Still, it’s fantastic to get this sun at home. Its funny, I was making toast earlier and felt like I was abroad. Toast in the sun has a different smell to toast in the pishing rain.

Some signals from outlier models indicating that this weather may hang around for a few weeks, this week looks good, after the weekend theres a bit of uncertainty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
