1. The weather today

Transcript item

Joanna: So, blue sky, not a cloud in the sky today. Bright sunshine, but it's a little bit misty, little bit hazy, so we haven't got a very good view today.

Tina: It's really, really windy and pretty, pretty misty today. I need my big hat to keep me warm.

Kevan: Yesterday, it was snowing all day. It was cloudy and it was cold, it was about -1 or -2 degrees. But today we've got blue skies, the sun's out, it's a bit warmer. It's about 3 or 4 degrees and it's fantastic weather for snowboarding.

Kirk: It's a beautiful Saturday afternoon with a bright blue sky, though as you can see looking at the mountain of Montserrat there in the distance, it's also a bit hazy.

Joanna: The weather up here is windy and a little bit rainy, but there's a rainbow!

Joanne: So, it's a beautiful day today. The sun's shining and there's a lovely blue sky. It is a bit chilly, but, yeah, it's a lovely day.

Adam: It's March, spring! No! No, it isn't. It's cold and it's snowy. I mean, yeah, it's very pretty. I know, it's beautiful. Oh, but when's it going to be over?

Tina: It's a yucky day in the UK today. It's raining, it's windy, my hands are freezing, and I forgot my umbrella! Yuck!

Joanna: Today it's a beautiful day. The sky is really clear and it's sunny. But it's very cold, it was -1 when we started our little run this morning. But clear, blue skies and the sun is shining. Beautiful!

Hi PAN78,
When it's overcast, is it still warm with you or cold? The weather has changed for us today, it has been lovely, very springlike with blue skies and a warm sun, still a cold wind though, but now it's also become pretty overcast and I think it could rain. Which is a pain as I have just hung the washing out!

Today is a bit hazy, but it`s beautiful in Mongolia. Temperature is -11C. 2 days before it was snowy. 3 days before here was warm about +18. People talk about this drastic situation that sky of the spring has many behavior.

Hello uranaa,

I really like this picture. Those snowflakes are very big! Was the temperature -11 when it was snowing like this? Where I grew up, we only had that kind of snow when it was a few degrees around 0.

The weather in Saigon like a girl's mood. In the early morning and evening, it's cool & fresh. It's bright sunshine the whole day & hot in the noon. You can be grilled when you go out on the street at noon. It can rain at any time without any sign. It also can be rainy and sunny at the same time, even can sun here and rainny 20 meters away. Such an clumsy but still be lovely.

So you have all the four seasons in only one day! I only missed the snow in your comment. Then I feel lucky living in the north-east of Spain where the weather is more solid, but in this specific region a strong wind is, what really can anoy you when it seems never to stop.

Good Afternoon everyone!

It is mostly cloudy, here, in Islamabad today. The temperature is around 17 C. It's been raining, most of days last week. As the summer is going to start here very soon, it feels really good at these temperatures below 20 C.

Hello! Today is cloudy and the sun is out. It’s not windy. The perfect weather for running.

Hi dasyanthus,

I don't really like running much, but I think even I would go out for a run in that weather! It looks so nice to me now and in a few months I'll wish for it even more.

Hi everyone, it's evening here in Karachi. Weather is pleasant right now, a bit cloudy but afternoon was quite hot with clear and bright sky.

Hi Alishba,

It is mostly cloudy in Islamabad as well. The temperature is around 17 C today. It's been raining most of the days last week causing a good decrease in temperature. It is the start of summer in Pakistan so it feels really good today.

Hi Bilal, glad to hear that you were enjoying great weather in Islamabad. I heard that Islamabad is a beautiful city especially when it is raining there. And sorry for late reply.
