not too bad forecasts over here


indeed we got same as britain, also 4 hot days basically (thursday, friday, saturday, sunday around 33 or 34) and mondays and tuesdays predicted as of what it says now, thunderstorms and some rainfall and a return to 24's 23's


i'm not complaining anymore now, late summers are usually not as horrible as peak summer with warm nights



going to water our garden still though tonight, because plants and grass do need that, but only once sun is completely away from our garden section, mostly near our shed, so plants can absorb water easier and lesser water waste through vaporizing

[Gusto Brunt]

Hot and 'clammy' up North, too, lad.

Not nice. A bit too hot for me. :(

[Crimson Dynamo]

next 4 days will be awful, hot car, hot walks

not good weather for getting things done

roll on autumn

Very funny.:laugh:

We're gonna be 36 degrees where I live, that's basically hell.:joker:

[Alf]

Make the most of it because it doesn't last long and pretty soon you're gonna be freezing for a much longer period. And it's gonna cost you a lot to keep warm.

It's easier to warm yourself up in the Winter than it is to cool yourself down in the Summer.

Plus the heat is just more uncomfortable imo.

It's a bit warmer than usual but this is all being utterly sensationalised and made up. Just calm down, everyone.

Isn’t that dangerous

[_Seth]

Yeah, don't spray water even on a blade fan. It could work its way to the motor.

I have a tower fan which would be fatal if I sprayed water into it, lmao.

Isn’t that dangerousHe can't answer you, he's electrocuted himself.

2 heatwaves we've had now this season, global warming is really out of control .

2 heatwaves we've had now this season, global warming is really out of control .We're living in an ice age. There's a huge area of ice and water on the planet. That wasn't always there and the planet coped just fine, we people did nothing to change it.

I'm not normally one to jump on the Global Warming bandwagon, but I've got to admit that this Summer has not operated like a stereotypical UK Summer.

it was still 21C here at midnight last night
