Its 25 degrees in my house right now. It's September, in Scotland. It's not right, when is it going to be autumn? I want to wear my new coat damn it!

Yes I wouldn't mind it if it was lovely and sunny but its grey and horribly muggy. I never know what to wear and end up a sweaty mess. It is cooler here today thankfully but it is still 24 in my house!

Not for a while yet - just seen the ECMWF and GFS runs, and it looks like it's going to be warm until well after next week - getting a bit rainy in the UK next week though - enjoy it - it'll be a dank January soon enough...

We do keep getting these random mid week, one day only, heatwaves, normally on a Tuesday! Very strange. Never at the weekend..

I keep wondering if I'm going through the menopause. How can it be September, rainy and grey, but so bloody humid? Angry

Noooo not another mini heatwave. Anyone know what the chances of it staying cool on Friday are? We have a day trip planned to Legoland and anything over 20ish feels like death! Confused

OhYouBadBadKitten · 12/09/2016 18:53

I think your chances for cool weather on Friday are fairly reasonable:) it might be a bit drizzly.

It's going to be really hot in the south tomorrow, it's strange putting washing on the line in September.

RepentAtLeisure · 12/09/2016 20:06

I might try for a final lawn mow then...

Flufflepuff · 12/09/2016 20:18

Ah, drizzle sounds good to me OYBBK, all the more reason to stop and have a coffee every so often while friends kids run riot Smile

Our weather app's just gone up another degree for tomorrow Confused another week without sleep in the new build - roll on winter already!

Flufflepuff · 12/09/2016 20:20

(Just realised that potentially sounded mammothly judgmental - no kids of my own, going with a friend. Whose kids are lovely Smile partly because it lets me go to Legoland still as a grown up! But SO full of energy...)

OhYouBadBadKitten · 12/09/2016 20:24

That didn't sound judgemental, it sounded very practical, if kids can't run riot at legoland than where can they?

A Level 2 Heat Health warning has been issued for some parts of the UK for the next few days.

'Tis 27.1C already here (Leicester)

GloriaSmud · 13/09/2016 11:03

BBC report ~ today could be the hottest September day for 50+ years.

GloriaSmud · 13/09/2016 16:14

Highest September temperature since 1911. Shock

RatOnnaStick · 13/09/2016 20:09

It can piss off now. Neither of my children are comfy in bed. Ds1's room is reading 27°. I feel all sticky Angry. When is autumn arriving please?

Whatthefoxgoingon · 13/09/2016 20:14

I've run the AC in our house for longer than any other summer previous. Enough already! Confused

OhYouBadBadKitten · 13/09/2016 20:18

34.4!! Impressive!

longdiling · 13/09/2016 20:21

September is always a bit like this though isn't it? Or is that just my perception? I always find it a funny old month. I stock up on school tights for the girls and they end up wearing summer dresses and socks.

MalbecAndLindt · 13/09/2016 20:26

Soon please! I adore autumn when it's lovely and crisp, especially in the mornings. Love cosy nights, warm coats, gloves, hot chocolate etc. I hate this sticky and humid weather, especially in the nights as I can't sleep Angry

OhYouBadBadKitten · 13/09/2016 20:27

It's pretty extreme for September.

5minutestobed · 14/09/2016 15:38

So when is it going to bugger off and get cold?! October? It can't be this warm in October, that really wouldn't be right!

warnings for torrential rain Thurs into fri
will be much cooler as the rain moves in.

MadisonAvenue · 14/09/2016 17:03

As a PP said, September often seems to have a warm spell, usually just after the kids go back to school!

Two years ago I remember taking my son to London for the day at the start of November to see the poppies at the Tower and it was warm then. I feel the cold (not that I mind) but was walking around in jeans and just a t shirt, as were most people.

longdiling · 14/09/2016 22:31

Yes, we don't often need hats and gloves on bonfire night. So according to that warning we may go from sweating pints today to getting drenched with rain tomorrow! Crazy

The weather thing on the iPhone can't make its bloody mind up. Changes between ☀️ & 🌦 ⚡️💦

BBC weather shows ☀️ ALL DAY - but then there's 'warning' of ⛈

MET office ☀️ ALL DAY

The only constant seems to be the 27deg.

I need to know what the weather is going to do so I can plan my day off goddammit! 😤

I have enough trouble planning one day out, I haven't the time for 'alternative plans' 😁
