Is this a good date?

I am planning on traveling to the UK leaving from NY May 15 and staying til May 30. I have plans to go into Wales. So does anyone know if the dates are good, weather and traveling wise? My dates are not set but I would like to pin it down since plane ticket prices changes often. Thanks in advance.

As good as any. Not sure what you are asking. No one can predict the weather for mid May.

What?! You mean the UK has good weather?:)

Or as they say in the UK, there's no bad weather, only inappropriately dressed tourists.

Are you related to anyone named Jonah?

I really like May in the UK. The weather has become relatively nice, the days are longer and the locals' patience with tourists hasn't been stretched to the limit yet.

I think he'd only be interested if it was about Whales in Wales.

(Sorry, Mandy, sometimes we just need to go off on a weird tangent. No disrespect meant.)

As with anywhere, you can see what weather is expected or average for that time of year, but it can't be predicted.

You are going during the shoulder season so it won't be as crowded.
