It's a little natural, but you will hear "Today IT is sunny" more more often

Yesterday it rained all day, but today it is sunny.

This could be an American/British thing, but like I said, I can imagine situations where "Today is sunny" works. While "Today it is sunny" is far more common, as I said, I would NOT say you should ALWAYS use "it is," at least in American conversation.

TidusIn the UK we are more likely to say "It rained all day yesterday, but it is sunny today".

I am not sure if there is a reason why we say "It's the 27th November" (in the UK we would say "It's the 27th of November"). I think it's just the way we structure our sentences and - in most cases - we would not include 'today', we

Well done! We write "27th November". We say "27th of November", or "It's the 27th of November".

In terms of how often do I hear "Today is (the) 27th (of) November".... never. We don't tend to put 'today' at the front of a statement like that, if at all. We might say "yesterday was the 26th of November", or "It's the 28th of November tomorrow", but if we are talking about today, we'd ju

hmmmmm...Grammar Geek, I disagree. If someone said "Today is sunny" I'd shoot them a quizzical look. Do you have any examples where that wouldn't sound awkward? Perhaps it's a regional thing.

Yes, I said I could imagine a conversation in which it was used. But I also said TWICE that "today it is sunny" is the more common way.

A: How's the vacation going? How's the weather?

B: Mixed. Yesterday was pretty rainy, but today (at least so far) is nice and sunny.
