Is it actually hot elsewhere in England?

[Kokapetl]

It's raining here (Devon). And has been cloudy all morning.

Maybe it will pick up a bit later.

29 here near Blackpool
Weather says we will go up to 30 at the most today.

@MrsMacIsBack official temps are taken in the shade.

Then fill jugs and tip water over any plants that need watering. I hate paying for more water than needed. I empty DDs water bottles into my plant pots on a rotation and try to use as much 'grey' water as possible.

Water company changed my meter twice thinking our low usage must be a mistake but now I have teens who can stay in the shower for all of infinity

It's 37 here. I love it but I am inside in the shade. I only went out for a few minutes in the midday sun.

50 can't be right, surely - that's 120F?

Sure, a surface in the sun can get way hotter than the shade temperature. Only the latter can be sensibly compared.

36 in the shade here in east Northants

I'd choose this over weather cold enough to trigger a weather warning 😬

30 degrees in my kitchen with no windows or doors open. Waiting for the shade to come over before opening the back door but guessing I may get the "getting off a plane" smack in your face experience. Haven't been outside yet so can't comment on that yet!

I much prefer cold weather. You can always put more clothes on, but there’s a limit to how much you can take off!

SE 29 outside but 24 inside

All front south facing windows are shut and curtains drawn

Kitchen windows and blinds were open but have just closed them as it's getting hotter and hotter outside

My washing dried in half an hour outside

Where in Devon!? I’m in the north (close to mid Devon boarder) and it’s 33! 🥵

It's 35 where I am. Summergeddon has well and truly arrived.

36 in the shade in my garden nr Manchester

That's true, cold weather just makes me really uncomfortable. I'd maybe feel differently if I had a physically demanding job outdoors. Or any job outdoors.

I’m in Plymouth and my car says it’s 36

West mids here, South facing garden with full glass windows directly into the lounge and sons bedroom. 44.9 😓
Its hotter than Hades!

I mean, it is hot, but not massively so for a hot summer's day (about 31 here)
I've been OK as in a nice cool air conditioned office all morning, as they have already gone from 5 trains an hour to 1 I've abandoned it to get home before they cancel everything. Heat walking back to the station and on the platform now is bearable, train will hopefully be air-conditioned so fine!

Currently 38 degrees in South East London where I am.

Hit 36 here which was the forecasted high (albeit at 5pm) so will see if it climbs any higher

Hertfordshire, my south facing patio, outdoor thermometer reading 48!

Cheshire. Feels hot outside but cool enough indoors so far. No air con

It’s now risen to 42.1 on my garden thermometer but have managed
to keep inside temps at around 28.5! This is in Derbyshire.

It’s hotter than Satan’s armpit here in South West London. Hope that helps.

35.5c in shade here, Gloucestershire.

Recently walked home from work (under umbrella😉) and my padded bra is soaked all over - I'm not normally one to perspire that much.

Found our cat behind bins, I managed to entice him in, he's had some cat milk, done his but as I wouldn't let him out of front door, but has now gone back out through cat flap.

South coast, West Sussex, it’s 29/30 here.
