Thread: 30 degrees again tomorrow

  1. #1

    30 degrees again tomorrow

    I don't know how the feck people cope with this oppressive heat

    I have had 3 showers a day , thats a complete waste of time , 15 minutes in fresh clothes and I am soaking wet again

    22 degrees tonight at 11pm

    Give me a cold dry January day over this punishment

    Was talking to a fella from Georgia the other day who said the summers there were like this and he moved here to escape the dry intense summers of the Black Sea

    I spent from 1pm till 6.45 at a football tournament, it was bigger than we thought with loads of teams, played 5 min E/W ( which you would expect would mean the games flew ) got to the Semi's and beaten in extra time with a golden goal

    a long hot day, imho it was too hot and they should have cancelled it

    Regarding whether this is a "heatwave" compared to other countries...


    I'm old enough to remember the long hot summer of 1976.

    I don't think the temp was as high as it is now, but everyone was dripping in sweat...
    We had a Nigerian working with us, he was used to heat per se, but he said the "wet heat" of the UK was almost unbearable.

    1976 convinced me that I would never, ever want to live in country with constant heat, ridiculous unbroken run of hot, hot weather.

    Are any other U.S. states expecting to break away to form their own countries?

    I’m still convinced…. Oh, the hot spell, just checked, 23rd of June until the 27th of August, from the 23rd of June - 7th of July at least one place in the UK reached 32.2 degrees. It was relentless, severe drought, with the government bringing out the slogan, ‘Save water, bath with a friend’.
    Eventually Dennis Howell, an ex football league referee and Minister for Sport was appointed Minister for Drought. To my mind he’s the most successful politician ever because when the weather broke it pissed down for weeks……what an appointment
