I wouldn’t call it ugly, but drab or dreary or grey or dismal. It’s days like today with such a heavy cloud cover and possibly rain or light drizzle that it never really gets light all day, common in November. We also get them in December if there is no snow. Or any time between now and the next growing season. It’s much worse in the farming area with its black ploughed fields than in town with its green lawns, ornamental evergreen trees and bushes, and coloured houses.
