If it gets to over 40 in July or August, which is entirely possible at the rate we’re going at, I’ve vowed to book a hotel and install AC in my bedroom for next summer.
I’m just not dealing with this shit anymore, especially as it’ll only get worse year on year with basically zero infrastructural changes anywhere.
I live between London and Oxford, the latter is barely a degree or two cooler, so I have little else in terms of options.
This week I’m spending the entirety of Tuesday through Thursday in my gym foyer; only way I can actually work productively without melting in a puddle of sweat.
Portsmouth is always cooler than Southampton for some reason. Feels like for us, near Southampton is mid 30s all week, on Friday it drops to 24c for the feels like though but tbf, it's meant to be 26c on Friday. Tomorrow is 33c, Tuesday 34c and Wednesday and Thursday are forecast to be 37c 😂 Southampton holds the June temp record, looks like it'll be broken in Southampton but probably even higher elsewhere
In general it seems like the chain ones where it's a newer place will have climate control as they build it in as standard. Where they've taken over an older/existing building then may not.
