Although it hasn't got as hot as it was last year (yet) I feel like I've already had enough. I'm got hayfever, I can't go outside without insects getting in my face and I'm already feeling hot and sticky. I also want to go to bed and someone round here is having an outdoors party. Yes I'm a Scrooge, no I don't care. Roll on autumn and crisp sunny days and frost and apples and brightly coloured leaves (ahh, I feel cooler already.)

20’degrees tomorrow.

Is anyone ok in that temperature?

LoafofSellotape · 21/06/2019 09:57

I'm ok in that if it's dry heat and not muggy and if there a breeze which is forecast here.

Will be too hot for me next week!

RosaWaiting · 21/06/2019 10:01

London is just forecast as humid hell

I think I’ll stay at mum’s Monday night and Friday but the days in between are pretty bad and I will have to use Tube of course. The office will be disgusting.

I actually can’t find my linen trousers though they must be here somewhere....

RosaWaiting · 21/06/2019 10:02

I’m fine in 20 but not 30!

Becca19962014 · 21/06/2019 10:06

Apparently it's "just" 16 here at the moment.... But over 19 inside...
I need to go out and get food today and I'm dreading it as I'm feeling really unwell, I've period from hell as well today.

Humidity is 90%. No breeze at all.

Fuck.

LoafofSellotape · 21/06/2019 10:08

I wilt I humidity, I can't even think straight.

LoafofSellotape · 21/06/2019 10:08

**wilt in

Sowhataboutthat · 21/06/2019 10:19

When Percentage is classed as bad humidity?

Sowhataboutthat · 21/06/2019 10:19

*what

Emmabryant123 · 21/06/2019 10:25

Dreading next week :(

Becca19962014 · 21/06/2019 12:58

My fan thing turned up.

Its small, with a fan in it, I've it running right now in an effort to cool off a bit - it's got an option to constantly spray water as it works so adding some moisture to the air and running it isn't adding to the room temperature which using my fan does. I do need it to be on full though as the lowest setting does nothing.

Not a total waste of money, not that I've used it very much!

It wasn't so hot by shops but when I went in I was hit by a wall of heat - apparently the temperature is set somewhere in South Wales based on the met office readings! Currently saying 13c. There's no way it is 13c!

Becca19962014 · 21/06/2019 13:01

20.2c outside!

Stupid fairies.

RosaWaiting · 21/06/2019 13:22

I’m so hoping they are wrong, they are quite crap at weather forecasts more than a couple of days. Xcweather now showing 34 for Thursday in London.

Emmabryant123 · 21/06/2019 13:27

34 :O
What the fuck 😢

LoafofSellotape · 21/06/2019 13:43

Where I am it's pleasant today and cloudy sunshine. 'Only' meant to be 26 next week here but it'll feel like hell's armpit if it's muggy too. I have an event I have to go to on Sunday,it's going to be 24 but with a moderate breeze,might be ok with the breeze 🤞Sad

LoafofSellotape · 21/06/2019 13:44

34 should be banned,that's fucking awful!

Nousernameforme · 21/06/2019 14:15

It's 17 today supposedly its fine inside but outside is quite toasty. It's going up to 24 next week.
I hope our hot weather poorly ones are coping today

Becca19962014 · 21/06/2019 14:35

Max 25c here next week, given the fairies have been out by 6c I'm worried.

Am sitting under my new fan with it spraying fine mist over me right now. So I'm ok for now. Except for the terror worry about next week.

WeCameToDance · 21/06/2019 14:59

It's 17 here but it feels much hotter. I'm boiling and grumpy. I live in an estate which is in a dip I don't believe that's the technical term so when it's hot I swear it feels hotter. As soon as you get out of the estate you get a lovely breeze back!
I wanted to go to the doctors today but it's a fair walk away and I think I might melt. My temperament can not take this temperature and it's only the first official day of the fucking summer.

WeCameToDance · 21/06/2019 15:00

Pissing hell! And my strike though failed. It's one of those days. I'm going to eat an ice lolly.

Nousernameforme · 21/06/2019 15:10

I'm out in it now blocks is it 17 am roasting

GummyGoddess · 21/06/2019 20:21

It hasn't been too bad here today, I think actually slightly cooler than expected.

It's forecast 27 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday Sad I feel I can't complain too much as it's been a pretty good summer so far, I just feel a bit sick and miserable at the thought of being hot and sticky and unable to do anything about it.

yulet · 22/06/2019 07:05

This week coming up looks like death, but it might cool a bit the week afterwards.

Becca19962014 · 22/06/2019 10:04

Fairies already reporting 20c here...

RosaWaiting · 22/06/2019 12:37

heat is definitely building,

however, the horror show of 34 has been moved from Wednesday to Friday, so still crossing fingers that it's not correct.
