【英國是不是很常下雨啊?】
關於天氣, 這大概是最常聽到的問題了(另一個問題是英國是不是很冷啊? )
獨立報 The Independent旗下i100網站日前公佈平均雨量最多的英國城市是......你以為是曼徹斯特(Manchester)嗎? No no no,其實是威爾斯地區的卡地夫(Cardiff);而平均每年下雨天數最多的則是蘇格蘭格拉斯哥(Glasgow)。
不過話說回來,英國的天氣實在多變,不論是什麼季節都有下雨的機會,常常一早醒來是藍天白雲好時光,幾個小時出門後居然烏雲密布來個傾盆大雨,別擔心,待久了自然而然就會發展出專屬個人的應變能力了(茶)
Cardiff is the wettest city in Britain. Yes, it's even rainier than Manchester
When it comes to rain and British cities, many people probably think of Manchester. Butresearch has shown that it's not actually that wet in the north-west.
Instead, it is Cardiff that's the wettest city in the UK, 'enjoying' 115.19cm of rain each year, as this chart from Statista shows.
Luckily for residents of the Welsh capital, however, their heavy rain is condensed into just148.6 days - a meagre total when compared to the 170.3 that drizzled Glaswegians who have to put up with.
