Shots of ice cream on the beach, sunbathers with their parasols and brave sea swimmers have been few and far between.
But the rain and wind have brought some dramatic skies and sunsets.
Intrepid camera club snapper Joanna Kaczorowska has captured the setting sun through a spider’s web in Bognor.
She has also snapped seed heads and grasses swaying in the unseasonably strong winds.
Her close-ups of bugs and plants show their intricate beauty, like that of the purple marsh woundwort she snapped at Chichester Canal.
These perennial plants are beloved by bees due to their brightly coloured flowers.
They grow in damp habitats like margins of ponds, rivers and canals, but can also be spotted on disturbed ground and cultivated fields.

Joanna spotted a deraeocoris, a striking black and red bug on some foliage.
This species has rapidly colonised the UK following its arrival in 1996 and is now widely established and common across the south of England.
