    Temperatures:

     boiling hot: an expression to describe a very hot weather.The last


    summer was boiling hot, the average temperature reached 40 degrees!
     hot
     mild: warm and pleasant.The weather in my country is mild in spring.
     warm
     chilly: cold.It's chilly  today, so I think you should wear a coat.
     freezing cold: very cold.I wanted to go ice skating on the New Year day,
    but it was freezing cold and I decided to stay home.

     degrees Celsius: used to measure the temperature.In the autumn, the


    average temperature here is 15 degrees Celsius
     to go below zero: to become negative (about temperatures).The
    temperature often goes below zero in the winter.

    Cloudy weather:

     gloomy: weather with dark clouds and dull light.Personally, I don’t like
    gloomy weather. It makes me feel depressed.
     clear: without clouds.I adore clear weather, when there are no clouds on
    the sky.
     to clear up: when clouds and rain disappear.After a long rain, it finally
    cleared up.

    Rainy weather:

     to be drenched (to the skin): to be completely soaked with water.I


    forgot to take an umbrella and was drenched in the rain.
     gentle rain: light rain.
     drizzle: a light rain that falls in very small drops.It often drizzles in the
    morning.
     downpour: a heavy fall of rain.What a downpour! We are drenched to
    the skin.
     to pour down: to rain heavily.I like rainy weather. When it pours down,
    we sit at home with my family, talk and drink hot tea.
     humid: containing a high amount of water.In my country the climate is
    generally cold and humid, especially in the north.

    Snowy weather:

     snow-covered: covered with snow.In the winter my family and I go


    skiing to the snow-covered hills of Switzerland.
     heavy snow: when a lot of snow falls.Children went to school in spite of
    the  heavy snow.
     frosty: cold.Continental climate implies hot summers and frosty winters.
     snowstorm: large amounts of wind and snow.I don’t like winters
    because of frequent snowstorms.
     hail: when small balls of ice (hailstones) fall from the sky.After the hail,
    we found hailstones that were the size of golf balls!

    Windy weather:

     high wind = strong wind.In the autumn strong winds are quite


    frequent.
     breeze: a nice gentle wind.I don’t usually like windy weather, but a light
    breeze from the ocean makes me happy.
     wind chill factor: when the wind makes the air feel colder than the real
    temperature.In my hometown it’s very windy in the winter. And though
    the temperature rarely goes below zero, with wind chill factor it feels like
    minus 10!

    Sunny weather:

     sunshine: the heat and light of the sun.I love summertime because of
    the long days and bright sunshine.
     dry: with no rain.Summers in Turkey are often hot and dry.
     heat stroke (sun stroke): a serious heat illness because of being too
    long in hot weather.It’s often boiling hot in my city in the summer and a
    lot of people suffer from heat stroke.
    Other vocabulary:

     a spell of good weather: a period of good weather. You can use other
    adjectives instead of "good" to describe weather.After a three-day spell of
    rainy weather, there was a spell of sunny weather.
     changeable weather: weather that often changes.In my country the
    weather is very changeable, periods of hot weather can be followed by
    heavy rains or even snowstorms!
     mild climate: a climate without extreme weather conditions.

     smog: a cloud of pollution.My town is so polluted that I don’t see stars at


    night because of thick smog!
     forecast: a prediction of how the weather will change.Although the
    forecasts predicted a mild winter, the January was freezing cold.
