British summer just keeps getting better.
Any rain that falls on July 15 is a ‘bad omen’ according to traditional folklore… and it’s not looking good Heavy rain and thunderstorms are set to batter parts of the UK after the Met Office issued a weather warning said to be a ‘bad omen’. Some parts of western England, including Cardiff, Bangor, Liverpool and Exeter will be hit by downpours, as will the whole of Wales. A yellow weather alert is in place from 8am on Monday, lasting the entire day until 11.
59pm Legend says that if it rain’s on St Swithin’s Day, that weather will persist for 40 days… great… The proverb of St Swithin says: ‘St Swithin’s Day if thou dost rain, for forty days it will remain, St Swithin’s Day if thou be fair, for forty days will rain na mair.’ The Met Office says ‘torrential downpours’ are likely, with 15-20mm of rainfall forecast in less than an hour in some places – and 30-40mm within three hours in others.
