The climate of Britain is more or less the same as that of the north-western part of the European mainland. The popular belief that it rains all the time in Britain is simply not true. London gets no more rain in a year than most other major European cities, and less than some.
The amount of rain that falls on a town in Britain depends on where it is. Generally speaking, the further west you go, the more rain you get. The mild winters mean that snow is a regular feature of the higher areas only. Occasionally, a whole winter goes by without any snow at all.
The winters are in general a bit colder in the east of the country than they are in the west, while in summer, the south is slightly warmer and sunnier than the north.
Why has Britain's climate got such a bad reputation? Perhaps it is for the same reason that British people always seem to be talking about the weather. This is its changeability. There is a saying that Britain doesn't have a climate, it only has weather. It may not rain very much altogether, but you can never be sure of a dry day; there can be cool days in July and some quite warm days in January.
The lack of extremes is the reason why the country seems to be totally unprepared for hot or cold days. A bit of snow and a few days of frost and the trains stop working and the roads are blocked; if the thermometer goes above 27 °C, people behave as if they were in the Sahara and the temperature makes front-page headlines. These things happen so rarely that it is not worth organizing life to be ready for them.

The Vampire Diaries; The Awkening by L. J. Smith
I'm deeply in love with The Vampire
Dairies books even if they are totally different from the TV series but still
amazing in their very own way; as for a beginning Elena after her parents death
is keeping herself together, we may see she is still the same cheer leader who
has it all but deep inside she is in deep grief over her terrible lost. She is
the person who is showing her "I'm alright face" just to make the world keeps on
moving.
Stefan is a mystery on his own the guy
who has been alone until her found a reason to have a different look towards the
world. While is brother is back for revenge and stealing Stefan's love until now
only hate is driving Damon to live, hate is his higher
