It depends on which part of the country you are referring to. I’m currently living in the North, I would say the weather is a bit comfortable because it has all four seasons but sometimes the weather can also get pretty extreme, especially in the summer when the temperature can reach up to 40 degree celcius due to terrifying drastic heatwaves sweeping across the city.
I’m a big fan of summer I think summer is the best season because all the sport activities or physical activities are at their ultimate level in the summer because you sweat and by sweating your body detoxifies so it’s really good for you, it’s like refreshing although every now and then I might get some serious skin complaints like rash or allergies.
Yeah I surely do. I mean I do a lot of exercises during the summer time. But when it comes to winter, when the weather is bleak, the sky looks so grey and dull and because of the thick cloud cover, I find myself so draggy and completely not productive at all
I must say that I am lucky to have four seasons to enjoy although the sharp distinction among season is slowly disappearing in the North. It’s kind of boring to me if we have only just one season all year, like the Southern part of Vietnam, the weather is hot all year round and only have two seasons which are rainy season and dry season.
Absolutely yes, especially to people who play outdoor sports are most affected. For instance, thas a significant impact on the performance of athletes. High temperature can cause various heat illnesses such as heat cramps and heatstroke, while very low temperatures may lead to hypothermia.
Well, I think today is a lovely day, even though it rained a little bit this morning. When I got out of the house, the weather seemed to brighten up and I hope it will stay like that for the rest of the day.
I'm actually not fond of any particular kind of weather, you know. I think every season has its own unique beauty and it's up to us to enjoy it. For example, not many people like the freezing weather in the winter, but I see it as a perfect occasion for me to bundle up and show off my clothes.
Vietnam is a tropical country, you know, so the climate here is quite hot and humid. What upsets me the most is that the weather is getting more unpredictable. It can cats and dogs in the morning and suddenly clear out in the afternoon.
I believe that the weather always affects us in every aspect. If it is a gloomy day, I'm pretty sure everyone will easily get bored or tired of whatever they are doing. In contrast, the sunny days make us feel alive and upbeat.
It can get sweltering in the summery months, so I think it will exert a certain impact on people's temperament. Everyone becomes less patient than usual, and they often get frustrated and easily get upset over some trivial matters.

At the moment we are having a heatwave, so the temperature is really high. I have been avoiding the sun and going out to run errands in the late afternoons.

Well, I think it's spring... The weather is very pleasant and it's nice to see everything come back to life and blossom.
6. Do you like winters?
No, not really... For me winter is the most depressing season, because where I live it's freezing cold in the winter. Moreover, the days are short and you can't do a lot of outdoor activities.
7. Is there any part of your country where it doesn’t rain much?
It rains in my current country quite often during the winter months. It is a small place so the rain normally hits all parts of the island.
8. Can you remember any time when it rained particularly heavily in your hometown?
Yes, a few years ago the rain was so bad that many areas were completely flooded, with the banks of the river breaking. Many cars were lost and people had to be rescued from their homes.

Yes sometimes, depending on the severity of the rain and if it leads to flooding. Some roads may have to be closed due to floods, so diversions will be put into effect.

13. What’s the weather (usually) like in your hometown?
In the city where I grew up, the temperatures are normally low, as it is in the north of England. Even in the summer months, the temperatures reach between 16-24 degrees. It rains a lot and there are many cloudy days.

I don't follow forecasts on the TV but I do check a weather app I have on my phone to see the temperatures every day and to check the humidity.
