It just changes so much. You're going to go from days where you're in a raincoat and you're in long johns and the sun's going to come out and you're going to be sweating like crazy, so just be prepared for all types of weather. When I was in England we had rain, snow, sleet, we had sunny days, we had everything, so just be prepared for everything. Definitely rain, there's a lot of mist, like misty water, so it's not like downpour all the time, but there is a lot of just wet misty days, and if you're on the coast there's going to be more of that, but especially I would recommend waterproof shoes, waterproof everything, because it just better be safe than sorry. It's not fun being wet, but during the summertime you will get a lot of heat, so also have stuff for when it's really hot. You know, I was in a short-sleeved shirt for a lot of my summer time, but in the winter, you know, I was bundled up in, you know, a heavy coat with a sweater and, you know, long johns, so just be prepared for anything. It's the best though.

So the weather gets pretty wild in England. You sometimes get some really, really nasty downpours, so just be prepared to get soaked and have something to keep you dry if you can. When you're up north, it gets really, really cold sometimes, so bring a scarf, just bring as many layers as you can to keep warm.

The thing about English or British weather is that it's not crazy at all. It's very similar day to day. Lots of days it does rain, but it's never pouring rain, it's just a really light rain. Most days it's just cloudy, but pretty moderate temperatures. It can get pretty cold in the winter because it's pretty humid, and when it's windy then it's very cold. So I would definitely either pack warm things or they have plenty of clothes to buy there for that specific weather.

Honestly, the weather in England is pretty similar every day. You get a lot of rain, you have wind every day. The thing is, the difference from America and England is that the rain in England and the wind in England, they almost like pierce your soul. It's like so cold. And so when it rains or it's windy, you feel it inside no matter how many jackets you're wearing. And so I remember when I first got to England, I bought an umbrella and I used it, but then it broke that same day because the wind was so powerful that it just broke my umbrella. So from that day, I just gave up on umbrellas and I didn't even bother buying one or using one. I just kind of lived with the rain and stuck with it.
