1962/63 winter
1987 "Great Storm"
1976 Hot long summer.
Although these are obvious for my region I wondered what other
regional perceptions would be.
Mine here in Surrey would be the same, with these additions:
The extended summer of 1959, when to me as a child it seemed as though
we had unbroken sun and warmth from early May to early October.
The downpour and flooding of September, 1968.
The remarkable spell of extreme cold and the heavy snowfall in January,
1987.
The blistering heat of 10th August, 2003, when I felt quite unwell
though my aged parents seemed to cope just fine.
