TODAY’S WEATHER AND MY ATTITUDE TO IT
The weather forecast for today was rather good. But during the last week the weather has changed several times. I
think it’s unsettled yet. That’s why I am not sure that the weather today will be as fine as the weather report has said.In
the morning when I woke up the sky was all covered with clouds. It had been raining hard at night. There were paddles
everywhere. And the mist was clearing up.Then at about ten o’clock it cleared up. The sun began shining brightly. But the
east wind began to blow. There was quite a chill in the air this morning. Later the temperature began to go up. Now it’s
getting warmer. But all the same I don’t think that the heat will kill us today.By the way, according to the weather
forecast it will be Cloudy today with rain in places. I’m almost sure that in an hour or so it’ll start drizzling and it will go on
till night.I don’t like such weather. If it’s summer the weather must be warm and even hot. In summer I like to see the
blue sky without any clouds. And if it rains let it be a thunderstorm with lightnings and thunder. But in half an hour the
puddles must dry up. It’s awfully dull when it’s drizzling from early morning till late at night.I like a light breeze but not a
hard wind, which blows off the hats of the passers-by and brings cold air.And the main thing I don’t like about the
weather is its ability to change quite suddenly and certainly at the wrong moment, for example, when we are going to the
country.
