The Weather, Talking About The Weather In English

There are many adjectives you can use for describing the weather in daily life. Some of them are very similar in meaning (hot and warm) and a little harder to distinguish, while others are completely different (rainy and sunny) and easier to remember.

To fully participate in these conversations, you’ll need lots of English words and phrases in your vocabulary.
