Weather and Seasons
– year is divided into four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter
– each season stands for 3 months of the year
Czech republic
– located in a mild climate zone
– has a moderate continental climate, therefore winters aren’t too cold and summers aren’t too hot
Spring
– beginning: 21st March
– weather: changeable, rainy, sunny, rainy, windy
– nights get shorter
– days get longer
– flowers are growing (snowdrops, snowflakes, dandelions, blue forget-me-nots, crocuses, tulips)
– snow-covered ground starts to reveal itself
– it becomes warmer and warmer
– umbrella useful in spring
– followed by summer
Summer
– beginning: 21st June
– weather: hot, sunny, sultry, dry, rarely overcast, cloudy and rainy
– sometimes the drought is unbearable and we await rain for a long time
– children love summer (holidays, hot weather, relaxing by the pool)
– people go swimming, camping, making barbeques and sunbathing
– too much heat is not good for human health (heatstroke, sunburn)
– in the morning there’s dew, sky is bright and clear
Autumn

Great Britain

– also 4 seasons
– winter: more snow, but it isn‘t so cold there
– spring: it rains a lot, sometimes sunny days
– summer: temperature can be over 30 degrees, but it’s not so usual
– autumn: rainy, cool days
– days in summer are slightly longer
– days in winter are slightly shorter
– less sunny days than in Czech republic
My opinion
I like every season but if someone told me I can choose only one, I would probably choose summer, because I’m still a student and I love summer holidays. My second favourite season is winter, because I love skiing.
