that wasn’t the restful night sleep I had planned for the week from hell 😆 it’s already 16 degrees here in the East Midlands. Beautiful morning though, can’t argue that.

And nobody's doing anything! I'm not even talking about acting against climate change but just responding to the changing weather. Air con needs to be more widely available. I'm no engineer but there must be a way of adapting houses to keep warm in the winter and cool in the summer. We need to change our work pattern in the summer like in hotter countries so that people don't have to work in unbearable conditions.
But every year people just say oh it only happens once in a blue moon, or oh the UK only ever gets a couple of weeks of 'good' weather. Can't they see its happening every year now and we need to adapt!?
And people are still having children, to live in who knows what kind of environment in 40 years.

It’s too bleeping hot. I’m sweating already at work

I am a postie. I’ve got four drinks with me and already contemplating getting an ice lolly
If you happen to speak to your postie today offer them a drink or an ice lolly. You don’t know what it means to us. Our drinks don’t say warm in the van and a little pick me up during the day really lifts us

I slept rubbish last night turned my fan on at 439 am


It’s never this hot in June!!!!

Very lazy day yesterday finally managed to get everyone to agree to a walk (beautiful sun all day). Within 10 minutes we in the middle a very heavy downpour. Ran home realised we had left the sky lights open and there was an inch of water in the utility I $hit you not. Love British weather.

Me and my husband cleaning in absolute silence and trying not to blame each other.

Last year I went out for a run leaving the French doors open. Halfway through there was a downpour. I thought it was fine as my wife was home.

More fool me. She was blissfully unaware, watching some YouTube tit in the bedroom. Needless to say, we weren’t cleaning in absolute silence that day.

I had to sleep down stairs last night. Our tower fan in the loft. I've had a bad stomach all weekend, if it's muggy I suffer. How people live all year in high temps I'll never know.

Just once it would be nice of we could have the warmth without the humidity (East Midlands). The air is always really close. I poce a sunny day woth a clean cool breeze but this isn't it. I didn't get thunder yesterday unlike other Midlands posters but my phone is suggesting there might be some later, though where the weather apps are concerned they often get the thunder wrong.

I keep refilling the ice cube tray 😂

Same here! That was terrifying. Didn't see it because I have the curtains closed, but I thought someone had been shot

It is absolutely chucking it down, lots of thunder.

On the lightning app i use, there are hundreds of red dots showing the strikes in the last ten mins, yet BBC weather is still saying sunshine :ROFLMAO:

My street is close to flooding.

I dread this time of year, I basically hibernate! I've got hyperhidrosis and sweat even in winter, so this is quite literal torture for me.

I empathise, I can't tolerate the heat. Get yourself one of those double vacuumed flasks. I take one with me in summer, as they keep drinks really cool. I rely on mine heavily in summer.

You can laugh about it afterwards, but...at the time there are frazzled tempers!!!

I'm finding it far too warm, looking at Amazon later for contraptions to cool the place down

Does anyone have any tips of what to wear at work to help keep cool? Like cooling vests etc? I'm more heat intolerant after starting sertraline.
