An Indian Summer
Warmth during Autumn can be a welcome respite from those usual frosty mornings. While Autumn doesn’t officially start till 23 September, we are experiencing a mild time right now and with a few warmer days recently has prompted us to call this period an Indian Summer.
The exact origin of the terminology is uncertain, it was perhaps so called because it was noted in regions inhabited by American Indians, or because the Indians first described it to the Europeans. However, the essence of the saying is a name often used to describe a period of normally calm and warm which occurs during autumn. Typically, the conditions are warm temperatures with dry hazy days. This is normally caused by a change in the Jetstream and can last from a few days to over a week. It can also occur several times before winter sets in for good.
With weather like this is perfect to explore the English countryside. The areas of outstanding natural beauty span the width and length of the British Isles. The most difficult thing is to choose where to go. Lately holidaying in the UK has been thriving for reasons we know why, and this is set to continue.
