TDYER63 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Joking aside 40 degrees is totally unbearable . Think I would actually be choosing to cancel my flight if I was travelling to that heat, and I prefer to be too warm than too cold. . Its not often that I am not envious of Englands weather.

Malcolm Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 i played football in 44 degree heat in Madrid after having had a night on the piss the night before. Three matches of 50 minutes each. That night I felt proper exhaustion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVIDB46 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) Just spend a week on England’s south coast Poole and sandbanks temps pushing 30 degrees everyday . stopped in London on way home went to Spain v Germany womens game on the way home at Brentford it was 28 degrees at night at the game. it was still 26 degrees after midnight as I finally got back to the hotel. the record temp in Dundee is 28.9 degrees that may be in doubt early this week Edited July 17, 2022 by DAVIDB46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertsscot Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Just off to North Berwick for a day by the sea. Checked up on where I was teaching last year. It's meant to hit 38/38 degrees in the afternoon. No air conditioning, big glass windows on two sides of the classroom, windows that wouldn't fully open due to health and safety, basically a greenhouse. Don't envy anyone teaching there today.

phart Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I get my exam results today, just bought a lot of alcohol and food going to chill today, making nachos now as well. It's still quite pleasant , what a difference losing all this weight made to being able to tolerate heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I'm finding it still a pleasant temp but it's still only about 25°C here. If it gets anywhere near 30°C I'll be hiding in a cool cellar somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Bongo Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I've been in Dubai when it was in the 40s and i was in Benidorm last June when they had a heatwave and again it was in the low 40s Those figures are the air temperature so the temperature on the ground was approaching the 60s It is a different kind of heat in Dubai as over there you get the humidity during the day along with it Anyway - the point is that these places are prepared for it with Air Conditioning almost everywhere Apart from our cars we dont in the main Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaid Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 It was 25 at 8-30 this morning indoors, that seems to be holding at 29, doors, windows and curtains all closed. It’s 36 outside and expected to rise to 38-39 by around 5 tonight. 22-23 overnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Was in Budapest two weekends ago and it was 35-39 degrees for the 5 days we were there. Temps in Scotland today are a breeze in comparison. Maybe not be saying the same if i lived in south of england with no air con right enough, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phart Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Got my results did very well. Drinking loads of alcohol now, my mate is a farmer just off phone, he says the harvest is going to be earliest on record for him this year unless it pishes down soon.
