Hey I literally just learned that one yesterday! (I think that was the one lol)

That's specific to one place in the UK if the video I saw is to be believed. It means being in a bad mood, or angry right?

I used it in the context of weather, but it can mean different things.

I might be thinking of a different word, which I suppose means I didn't actually learn anything from that video lol
