Meaning and Interpretation
🌤️ Okay, so this is the 'it's complicated' of weather emojis. It's not full-on sunshine, but it's definitely not raining either. You use it for those 'partly sunny' days, or when things are looking up after being kinda blah. Like, 'My mood today? A solid 🌤️.' It's low-key optimistic, sorta hopeful, but keeping it real. It's that moment when you see a bit of blue sky after a week of gray.
