Southern hemisphere winter officially began on Monday, June 21, and runs until September 22, 2021.

Brrr! The Cold weather lesson shows some vocabulary to describe these sometimes sunny days, sometimes rainy, or days when the winter temperatures dip low.

And the only thing I can think of, to tell people is:

To keep/stay warm means to keep your body warm, meaning wear the right clothes or do the correct activity or thing to keep yourself warm (referring to body temperature).

Stay warm implies that the person is already warm. So, like, if a delivery guy comes to your house and complains about the cold while you are having a friendly conversation, as he leaves, you might say, “Keep warm today!”

So, they are often used as a closing, in place of or immediately following “goodbye.”

Stay is a less active verb than keep. Keep indicates more intentionality. They’re interchangeable.

Next, a few tips to deal with cold weather. Listen to them and look up the words you don’t know. Notice pronunciation and how words are combined. Take notes.

Autumn mornings are often chilly. In chilly weather, you might want a light jacket, but you won’t need a heavy coat, or a scarf, or anything like that.

So chilly means that it’s a little cold. Not very cold, just a little cold.

But what if it’s very cold? You could say that it’s freezing.

Freezing means that it is very cold. Not just chilly, but very cold.

What’s the weather like? showed the more basic answers and vocabulary.

Weather expressions taught useful weather expressions, new words, phrases, and common patterns you can use to describe different kinds of weather.

But if you still didn’t find the exact words to describe the weather where you are, listen to the ones used in the following video, that you might need to describe those sunny days, stormy days, and all those in between, especially during cold weather such as:

• damp that means that something is slightly wet;

• overcast that means that the clouds are covering the sky and you cannot see the sun.

Take notes, look up the words you don’t know, and pay attention to pronunciation. It’s an old video, but it’s useful.
