(On the phone)
1- What is the weather like up there in Durham?
2- Awful! It's cold, cloudy and rainy.
3- It is always rainy here in March.
4- How is it over there in Cornwall?
5- Great. It is warm and sunny.
6- We are really lucky.

Notes:

Terrible: “awful”, “ugly”
Example:
The weather's terrible --> The weather is terrible.
It has no positive connotation like in French. There are a number of English words that are "treacherous", meaning they sound like "homegrown" words but have a different meaning. We'll get to that later.

Here's how to form an adjective from a noun:
a cloud --> a cloud.
cloudy --> cloudy.

The rain --> the rain.
Rainy --> rainy.

Always: always (all the time, constantly)
It's always hot in Cornwall. --> It's always hot in Cornwall.

Here: here indicates the location of the speaker: The weather here is great. Whereas there denotes a distant place (over there) What's the weather like there?.
