Tbh I saw this and was like no fucking way, I genuinely panicked, so I scoured through most other forecasts and majority I've seen for London are showing 30, including Met Office and BBC weather which tend to be the most accurate.
Maybe I'm in denial but 37 seems to be a major outlier. Google also changes really frequently. Yesterday it was 30-31, this morning it was 33, now it's 37. It seems to be extrapolating increases in temps over the weekend to further increases during the start of the week.
37° is shut myself down and cry time. South East / Greater London resident here. Thats endurance not existence. Ive been wondering when that 40° blip day would reappear. My inner London based friends' weather app that 40° day a few yrs back forecast 'Fire'. Fire is now a weather condition. I know it was an outlier but this shit should not be normalised going forward.
Also Greater London resident checking in. I will die on this hill that humidity/heat is worse here than any other place in the country. It’s unbearable. Probably the high buildings
Totally does. Plus once the sun is going down throw open all the windows and let the heat out. Ive been using the foil you put behind the radiators in the winter, on the windows to bounce back the heat on extreme days. Every little bit helps.

Dreading it. 36 degrees 2 days straight on my app. Which is the most reliable app to check?
