I have suffered the last three days in the South East. It is 30 degrees where I am today. I'm suffering! And its been in the high twenties all week. I haven't slept with fans on.

However looking at the weather forecast, its dropping to a lovely 21 degrees next week. Is that the end of it?

I don’t think it’s been as bad as this summer’s previous ones. Less soupy and humid.

i love summer and warm weather compared to rain and chill. However, wishing for weather that you or I might like best doesn’t make any difference to the day to day reality.

in my experience August is usually a bit wetter and cooler than June and July but we shall see

No it isn't 'the coolest summer we'll have!'. Next summer will probably be cool and damp and then everyone will moan about that.

Love your username @BettyJoanPerske

Well I'm bloody loving it. Long live global warming!

Early morning walks under a warm blue sky, lunch in the garden under the shade of the cherry tree, then evenings at the beach playing with the kids in the sea.

Feel sorry for the city folk though!

Well bully for you!

Anyone finding it’s cooled down but still somehow so humid!? I only have to get up from a chair and I’m sweaty!!
