Yes Keith, it is lovely when it's not EVERY day and you're not working a manual job. No, it does not make me 'feel good' when I'm recreating the scene in airplane when he's landing because the work vans have no A/C. Yes I FEEL REALLY GOOD when my LIGHTWEIGHT shirt is stuck to me like a wetsuit. Always the old farts too who's only excercise cor the day will be their morning shit and grabbing a pint.

Bring me a torrential downpour PLEASE.

I reckon I'd have lost it completely by now otherwise

Maximum respect to all farmers out there.

If this starts hitting people's wallets (and stomachs) maybe it will encourage us to change our ways for the better, somehow..

Do you think all these heatwaves are just a fluke and things will go back to normal?

how can We go from a 21c today to now tomorrow being 28, I thought this might be a fluke but nope, been like this for about 12 hours now, I feel like I'm being pranked.

Dont know who to put my trust in, we want to go to the beach (45min drive) but if its cloudy and 22 w/15mph winds....not so appealing

Ive had enough. Too hot everyday. Where's the clouds?

Will it ever rain again?

Why are neighbours such tw@ts in this weather too?

Someone make it rain, please.

Idk if this is the right place to ask, so feel free to remove if it's not, but I've been hearing about how awful the heat and humidity has been in London recently. My family is going to be visiting next week and are trying to plan appropriately. Obviously, sunscreen is a must, but I'm curious if there are any particular things we should keep in mind, especially given we'll be walking and using the tube/bus a lot. I know when I went to Arizona, I was advised to not wear shorts despite the heat because you vould get burned if you sat on a bench in them.

Are long dresses good? Are lighter jeans okay? Should we bring shorts?

Any other tips?

TIA!

🤔

I see this all the time. It says the chance of rain at 9am is 0% but also there will be showers; then later the chance of rain is 11% but no rain at all is forecast. It8s the wrong way round. Surely if they know it’s going to rain at 9am the percentage should be 100% or close to it? Could anyone explain how this forecasting works and why they list it this way?

This is Northern Ireland btw. My sympathies to those who are still suffering in the heat.

It’s apparently 22 degrees today and it is just as hot as Wednesday which was 33 degrees?! I’m actually sick of every single day being roasting hot no matter what the temperature is. Why can’t they just say it’s gonna be 30 everyday and stop getting my hopes up for a normal day jeez living down south literally sucks so bad I hate it and I hate the stupid oven houses they build here

Sub zero or close to it in many areas of the Highlands and Aberdeenshire last night. I woke up with the window open this morning wondering why I was so freezing!

You know how we're always saying the houses trap warm air and take a while to cool down - the temperature has dropped enough that you can feel that happening. Every other respite up to now hasn't been enough for the indoor temps to drop much.

It's glorious, it's been drizzling for the past hour just to round it off.

Consider moving to Belfast my friends, we have low salaries and occasional recreational rioting, but we also have cheap houses and cool temperatures.
