Re: Weather
 

Too hot for me but I shouldn't complain as I have another week off work going places in the UK so hopefully I won't have to do any analysis of the weather every day to avoid any rain showers, but today is a day of rest at home, I've already clocked up over 800 miles driving in the last 6 days.

---------- Post added at 10:11 ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 ----------

The feel like temperature near Cambridge on Wednesday is said to be 39c!!! That's too hot for me in the UK especially when there is very little breeze.

Re: Weather
 

Damn! It's going to be stuffy . The odd cloud in the sky might help but it doesn't look promising.

Re: Weather
 

You might need to sit on those super fans you bought. :D

Re: Weather
 

With my ears i might fly away

Re: Weather
 

Then you would have to change your name to Flappy bird. :D

Re: Weather
 

Think of me when you're playing with your flappy paddle gearbox ;)

Its raining out there! (And its supposed to alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll day)

Re: Weather
 

30c and raining with thunder rolling in from the SW of England.

Re: Weather
 

Just got back from Hever Castle really hot all day at 28c, I'm not sure I can survive the expected 39c later in the week.

Re: Weather
 

I'm going to my cousin's funeral tomorrow, and all the weather apps give different temperatures, from 33c to 39c.

But I'm wearing suit trousers and a white shirt, and tie (its a Homer Simpson Father Christmas one) I always wore this tie on the 25th of June as it's 6 months to the festive season.

Re: Weather
 

at 8 am it was so still hot and sticky but now the sea breeze has kicked in it's much better

Re: Weather
 

Wife is over your way today, school trip with a load of SEND children . . . you may spot her, she's probably wearing a coat :D

Re: Weather
 

Just over 30C in the shade on the North side of the house. We're only a couple of miles from the sea.

Now in the official red zone.

Re: Weather
 

she might bump into my eldest,he'll probably have a jumper on

Its nice out here tonight.. about 14.4 right now!

Re: Weather
 

slept with my cooling blanket on and the ac on woke up at 3am bloody freezing

Re: Weather
 

9:25am and it is 24°C here in Glasgow already!. Expected to reach 29-30 today. Bloody roasting. Also expecting thunderstorms overnight tonight.

Re: Weather
 

When I left the house at 9:15 it was already 28c near Cambridge!

Re: Weather
 

My servers fans are spinning like crazy.
This heat is unbearable.

Re: Weather
 

Reasons to be Cheerful:

* The tumble drier is now redundant
* It's too hot to mow the lawns
* Having an all through lounge creates a nice breeze with the windows open
* The dog doesn't have the energy to incessantly bark at the postman/delivery drivers/dustbin men
* I'm retired, therefore don't need to work in this weather

:D

Re: Weather
 

27°C now and I am off to the cinema to cool down lol.

Re: Weather
 

I'm standing under a tree at bressingham gardens in the shade, feels like 31c instead of 38c at home. I've actually got a bit of a congestion cold. lol

Re: Weather
 

Don't piss on it

Re: Weather
 

I never understand your sense of humour sometimes. Lol

Re: Weather
 

Sometimes I think he opens a book at a random page, then copies the second line of the third paragraph . . . I'm waiting for " . . you swapped the cow for some magic beans?"

Re: Weather
 

Or…

He is sending messages to his "handler", updating them on his operational status…

Re: Weather
 

usually full of of gin and tonic

Re: Weather
 

If I may, I'd like to amend that . . 'He is sending messages to his delivery driver, updating them on his culinary desires … ' ;)

Re: Weather
 

dark clouds are gathering here in paradise,the air has suddenly cooled,it's gona let rip

Re: Weather
 

If only there was a simple effective way of getting the cooler nighttime air inside, so the day doesn't start at 30 degrees and get even hotter.

Re: Weather
 

live near the sea front


update on the dark clouds,now i hear thunder in the distance

Re: Weather
 

We are constantly being told to insulate our homes to reduce energy use to heat them in the winter.

But now we are being told to remove any air conditioning we have if our homes get too hot during the summer.

"Just open a window".

35.9°C here yesterday, a record for Wales, and our bedroom was at 30°C all day and all night with the windows and door wide open.

Re: Weather
 

Well that was a horrible night sleep! Bedroom never got below 28.5°C. Still no rain or thunder that was expected overnight.

Re: Weather
 

It quite obviously rained here at some time of the early morning, but now most signs of 'wetness' are fading fast under the blazing sun.

Probably going to be another 'cold buffet' main meal today

Re: Weather
 

we had light rain for half an hour now it's full sun

Re: Weather
 

Thunderstorms and torrential rain in Leeds early this morning, now blazing sunshine, with thunderstorms and heavy rain forecast 2pm to 9pm.

Re: Weather
 

I get that by placing a fan on my window ledge which draws the cool air in

It's hot in London. It was hot this morning in Crawley. I can confirm it's hot. No rain. Just sun.

Re: Weather
 

22C in the shade today. That's 8 degrees cooler than yesterday.

Re: Weather
 

Yesterday Me and my sister drove to Aylesbury to my cousins funeral, she had the climate control on and it was lovely, opening the door when we stopped at a nearby pub for a cold drink was like opening the doors to hell.


Inside the crematorium is was cold.

Re: Weather
 

The risk is of also drawing in flying insects.

Re: Weather
 

Surprisingly I've not had one moth. I leave my tele on for the world cup, one of my window half open with the net curtain drawn. No insects :shrug:

Re: Weather
 

Net Curtains! Now that is something from the dark ages, that I wouldn't be seen dead using. Lol

Re: Weather
 

How some people enjoy weather like this is beyond me!

Re: Weather
 

Great for weight loss. Sweating that is. Shame my fat ass isn't moving.

Re: Weather
 

Depends on what you are used to I guess. Too hot for me.

Re: Weather
 

The extreme heat is killing them.

Re: Weather
 

I guess its not all bad then. :angel:

Re: Weather
 

my Thai neighbor has just gone off to work in his puffer jacket and woolly hat it's 22c at the moment

Its supposed to get really hot here the next week.. Im talking 30+!!

At least the pool water will get warmer!

Re: Weather
 

I would want the water to be colder.

Re: Weather
 

The humidity in my home is 63%, and uncomfortable

Re: Weather
 

The weather has been a bit cooler for me today and the house feels alot better, likely because I've been able to open the windows and get a blow going through the house. Last night I think was the worst night ever here.

More of the same forecast for next week when I'm back at work, atleast I'll be in a clean room with Aircon.

Re: Weather
 

Today was a decent. Nice breeze. Fan Infront of the open window worked a treat.

Thunder woke me up last night.

Re: Weather
 

I couldn't breathe yesterday evening. It's a lot cooler today :)

Re: Weather
 

Alot warmer for me today and it's only getting worse.

Shut all the house curtains while I'm working a late shift, it feels like 33c outside, luckily I'm in an aircondioned building until 10pm.

Re: Weather
 

Definitely been a scorcher today . . and we had those sodding thunder flies too, which made opening the windows a bit of a 'rock and a hard place' choice . . although the little sods get in anyway :rolleyes:

Re: Weather
 

back when i worked for post office telephones we had yellow vans,they would get covered in bugs whenever you parked in the countryside on a summers day,and when i say covered i'm not exaggerating you couldn't see the yellow

Re: Weather
 

The amount of central heating companies who are now working installing Air con has increased so much lately.

Re: Weather
 

22c feels like 25c and 69% humidity at 09:16 in Boro

Dogs out at 5am to get them walked whilst it was cool and now they’re complaining as they want to be in the garden sunbathing and charging around like idiots

Re: Weather
 

Which will accelerate climate change further.

I'm afraid we ignored the warnings and are past the tipping point where we can do much about it. What a selfish generation we are.

Re: Weather
 

my cat spends all day on the neighbors garage roof in full sun, he just came in so i wet him down to cool him off ,had some food now back on the roof

might as well drill baby drill then,no need to die in poverty

Re: Weather
 

34c outside with no breeze for me at the moment and 29c inside. I'm definitely not keen on this heat but I know people at work from places like Romania that doesn't think anything is wrong and love it!

Re: Weather
 

I'm wondering if it's worth planting a few Orange trees and hoping for mild winters :D

Re: Weather
 

Very pleasant 25C here on the coast with a nice sea breeze. My banana palms are loving the heat.

Re: Weather
 

10:30am Already 27C here in South Manchester. Our conservatory is a no go zone at 40C and the cacti are thriving.

Goodness knows how hot it will be in there when the temperature outside reaches 34C this afternoon.

Re: Weather
 

I want to hand wash my car this weekend so I think I'm going to have to rush do it at 8am because it's 32c out there now.

Any other areas got a hose pipe ban?
Cambridge Water hose pipe ban was activated on 9th July for the first time in 30 years.

Re: Weather
 

hose pipe ban started here, £1034 for water supply and i can't use a hose :mad:

my mistake starting at i am tomorrow

Re: Weather
 

Use buckets ?

Re: Weather
 

Yep . . fill them with the hosepipe ;)

Re: Weather
 

I'll be washing my car at 9am with buckets and a watering can.

Re: Weather
 

Isn't a paddling pool just a big bucket ?

Re: Weather
 

Started off as a lovely morning here, dull with good cloud cover and a cooling breeze . . . . I nearly put socks on.

Now however, the clouds are dissipating and the sun is starting to break through, could be another muggy and sweaty day :(

Re: Weather
 

have you tried carrying one when it's full of water:)

Bloody hot!!!!!!

About 28 right now!! -- Where is the rain???

Re: Weather
 

I work Monday and Thursday in the office as a rule and work from home the rest of the week. Lately i have been in the office a lot more as they have nice cool air con :D
