Meteorology moaning - aka the weather, let’s moan about the heat 🥵🔥☀️🔥

[LaBlonde]

temperature has dropped massively here in south wales: grey skies and looks like it’s about to rain. i’ve changed my whole outfit

 

[AnderbeauJohnson]

A bit of distant thunder but it's pouring down here now - the sting has already been taken out of the air and it is wonderful.

 

[Keikochan]

Inside the air is so heavy but outside it's crisp & fresh. Still need the fan to lesson the mugginess.

Looks like its warming up again next week. I'm in Herts.

Well it started off well this morning, overcast and rainy and now the sun has come out. FFS

Don't drape it over her, encourage her to lay on it. Draping traps the heat (vet nurse)

Oh whoops, good to know. At least a tea towel is cheaper than buying an expensive cooling mat (chances of her lying on either slim to none )

I ended up fainting on the living room floor. One minute I was talking to my housemate and the next I was on the floor

Oh goodness, I hope you're okay now.

Side note, read your post on a quick scroll and read it as 'farting'

I don't even like being at work at the moment but I'll be grateful for the AC tomorrow from 9am - 5pm.

I usually walk 2 miles to work in the afternoon get my steps in ....but not in the heat no can do !

 

[Homebird44]

I have the window shut and it's wonderful.

Apart from going on holiday I don't think I've ever shut my bedroom window or any of the upstairs windows. Makes me feel claustrophobic.

 

[btw]

Todays not too bad. A few of us mums at our school were saying we would rather kids be at home if it hit 34 like it’s meant to on Monday/Tuesday. Our school is a old building and at least at home we can have them in the pool and keep indoors cool for them

I agree, if the forecast is still saying 34 Monday and Tuesday by the weekend, I don’t think kids should be at school on those days! It sounds silly but for the UK with our infrastructure and way of life, that’s far too hot for kids to be stuck at school!
The heat affects kids concentration, makes them more tired + reduces their appetite!

I’m up north and it’s been hot here too. I went out with a hoodie on today because it was overcast and drizzling - I am so sweaty !!! I’m tempted to buy a tshirt in primark.

 

[37BBL]

For me the ideal is around 20-22. Anything over that and I'm just irritable. My kids don't mind it tbf, but I find it so uncomfortable.
Took my eldest to footy this morning and was stood in the baking sun feeling very grumpy!!
I can't wait until it cools down tomorrow. Bring on the 19!!!

Ah Boooo, we don't get snow "down south".
Butttt kinda glad as I love snow to play in and build snow men with the kids, then that's it, it can go. Hate the chaos and sludge it leaves behind enjoy everyone. Freezing and raining here

 

[MyLittlePony25]

Totally with you. I got up early to get housework done, thinking it would be cooler… nope.
got a meeting at 11:30 and have to go shopping. Then I will come back and die of heat stroke

 

[Penguin86]

I’ve got pots, I’m heat intolerant, I’m suffering and I’m cranky

I'm heat intolerant too

 

[abccc_]

Agh!!!!!! We have snow! SO MUCH SNOW!!!!

Oooo where?! I’m so jealous

 

[bamboo98]

My son is meant to have sports day on Tuesday, which is meant to be our hottest day. I’m hoping they cancel it, he gets way too hot anyway so hell end up poorly if he has to run around in 32/33 degrees.

 

[DuckDuck]

Agh!!!!!! We have snow! SO MUCH SNOW!!!!

I'm very jealous . Us down south ( I'm presuming you're up north more ) dont get much in the way of snow.

 

[hrh89]

this weather is driving me mad. I’m in the south east it absolutely pelted it down today. Got so wet jeans were soaked through and stuck to me it came out of nowhere I could barely see! Bring back the heat now I’m over this rain lol
