UK ought to be ‘ought to be most feared nation’ as a consequence of ‘power’ amid grim climate

Members of the public are convinced England should be the “most feared country on earth” because of the horror weather conditions we deal with.

Even as the sunshine tries to break through in summer, the usually relentless rain, blizzards and dismal clouds appear. According to a tweet from one Twitter/X user, the spirit found in horror weather is exactly why we should be “feared”.

The viral tweet applauded the sheer “strength” of those charging through the gloomy days, adding that our stoicism could make other countries shake in their wellies.

The tweet read: “The strength you need to put up with this climate and still go about your day/maintain any ambition. We should be the most feared country on earth.”

Members of the social media app agreed, with one calling the statement “real” while another believes Scotland too were pushing through the woeful weather.

The weather outlook for the remainder of the month is predictably grim, according to the Met Office. They’ve already indicated an “even chance” of rain throughout the latter half of July and into August.

The start of the month has seen a mixed bag of sunshine and showers, with the Met Office expressing low confidence in stable weather patterns.

Their statement reads: “Confidence in the weather patterns at the beginning of this period is unusually low, with an erratic transition from cool, bright but showery weather over the previous weekend to something more unsettled, particularly in the south and west, likely to be underway.

“A forecast from the Met Office for the rest of the month states: “As can often be the case at this time of year, predictability at this range is exceptionally low. There is a roughly even chance of rainfall being both below average and above average, whilst around average to above average temperatures are slightly favoured”.
