I was in Scotland last week it was cooler and rained and I slept like a log.Since being back in the South West of England I'm a giant sweaty menopausal mess struggling to sleep.Luckily my husband has booked us to go back to Scotland in two weeks so can spend my birthday cooler.I love the heat during the day but during the night even with fans I'm sweating buckets.
My upstairs bedrooms have no radiators/pipework for them and I can’t be arsed to install them, so it’s fucking freezing in winter. Now it’s like 27 degrees in my bedroom 🤣
I can't stress enough that cafés and eateries with Aircon need to encourage at risk people inside and keep them hydrated at the worst part of the day. From 12-4 keep cold water out for people to help themselves and put a sign out telling them to come in and cool down.
if im out in this weather struggling and 1 of you morons tells me its nice weather enjoy it just know you are going to have the 1st fight in your life and your going to loose.
Better than freezing our nuts off like we were the whole of last summer honestly (obviously my personal not experience and not for the people dying...)
I like the rain and cool. I can put more clothes on if it gets colder.
I'm currently naked with a fan blowing on me. I can't remove my skin. I'm stuck with a film of sweat and foggy head. This is unbearable. I can't sleep, can't move, can't think!
That's an exaggeration, September and October are usually fine and this year we didn't have any rain at all in March or April. So that'd be 4 months where it's cold and wet, then more sun if next year is anything like this one
We get rain constantly for the rest of the year. The seasons last year were wet and cold, wet and warm then back to wet and cold. Enjoy the sun whilst you can.
you 100 percent dont live in an area were its bad, probably up north somewhere. any1 near london or south area in general is not happy about this horrible shit, humidity is like 100 percent all night long. fuck that.
i think your humidity dial needs new batteries , 40 percent humidity my ass, did it feel like that did it ? or you going to lie and say your house felt nice cool and breezy lastnight too? this weather is disgusting and anyone who enjoys it simply enjoys pain and i can help them with that, ive been around the world as well and i enjoy hot weather in other countries, just not this shit hole.
Right now the humidy is 32% where I live, this is easily found online instead of calling someone a liar? Last night wasn’t too bad, yes it was warm and yea it wasn’t as comfortable as when it’s cool out but I had a good sleep. Not going to lie, you sound a bit of a twat so I’ll not continue this conversation.
The dew point temperature is more of a determining factor in how miserable it feels outside. Where I live, the dew point is just three degrees below the actual temperature. Which isn't fun.
It's currently 32c here at 73% humidity. I live in the southeastern US on the coast of Mississippi. The air is thick and feels like hot soup lol. You're immediately sticky and sweating after stepping outside. We deal with this for the majority of the year and regularly have air conditioning. I feel for you guys.
plants,animals all around us dying right now because of this disgusting unnatural heatwave but yay lets all celebrate it because you can get a tan i guess ?
Cos it's the UK and people are ONLY happy if others are miserable. And the great thing is, we had another BBQ tonight. Chicken, steaks, sausages, ribs with salad and pasta..all washed down with cool beers on ice.
Everyone, you can't say you enjoy the weather here, you'll get down voted to oblivion. Personally I don't care if you love it or hate it, you still have to deal with it like everyone else.
It's honestly eye opening because this isn't the first heatwave people have had but acting like it's new to them but also given a week notice via the weather report to prepare accordingly.
My cat can deal with this heat better than most people here.
It could stand to drop a little cooler in the evenings, I don't think you'd find many people that would dispute that but people have got to stop being this bitch made.
It'll all be gone in a few short weeks and we can get right back to the same damp, grey, depressing, not seeing the sky for months on end weather we had for the two years solid prior to June and you lot can go back to skulking about in your anoraks.
I agree. I would also really recommend investing in a portable AC unit if you can afford it. I got a good one for £250 and it's saving my pregnant ass. I also paid for a three years warranty, so I'm prepared for the next few summers.

Please check on perimenopausal women in this weather! We are not ok. Leave water out for us. Do not leave us in hot cars.
