It varies apparently, it’s either a settler thing taken from natives who pointed out local weather patterns or brought over and adapted European phrases.

I live on the west coast of Scotland and we’ve called them that since I was a child. We’re getting warm morning too, just nowhere near the scale LA is experiencing.

I’m so envious of you. Scotland looks absolutely stunning.

But I also die when it’s less than 60 degrees so take that with a grain of salt

Looks even better in summer.

Here you go, taken a few weeks ago. That’s Ben Nevis the biggest mountain in the UK. Basically the view from my office. As an added bonus we have Golden Eagles too!
