Meanwhile I’m resisting turning the heating back on here on the East Coast of Scotland…
Not a fan of that kind of temperature BUT i remember the good old days when that was a weather forecast not an “alert” or “breaking news”.
It’ll be interesting to see how hot it gets this year. I like to wait until it’s sweltering, late summer, then I go on a raging hunt for a decent fan knowing full well they’re all going to be sold out and I should have ordered Months ago.
Finally some heat, my tomato plants have been so stunted this year from the cold spring. Hopefully this gets them going a bit
You’re telling me that it’s going to be hot when we are 14 days away from it officially being summer?
I’m Shocked.
Nice!
Must do the warm weather prep for my mum’s house as the heat can affect her health conditions if I don’t, but only takes me an hour or two.
A&Es are going to end up seeing a lot of badly burnt people and a lot of people suffering from dehydration then. People love this sort of weather but you only have to go to the Costa del Sol or the Algarve to see how Brits act in these temperatures.
Yeah I got the “breaking news” today on the phone to let me know it’s going to sunny and warm……

My weather app says it’s going to be raining and mid 20s in London this weekend 🤷
It’d be helpful if the beeb gave some details of what type of people are likely to be vulnerable. 30 degrees is hot to me but far from concerning. I’d gladly check on someone if I had a fucking clue who I’m supposed to be worried about though.
That said, I hate the bleating about these articles. If 30 degrees is OK for you, great, but at least public broadcasters are doing what they’re supposed to do and flagging it up for those who might need to know (even if this is light on details for the rest of us).
And yet the BBC weather and Met Office are currently predicting highs of 26c in london.
I have an aircon unit this summer! No more uncomfortable nights for me.
But they’re also saying that it’s going to tip down with rain this weekend! Weather forecasters seem to constantly change their minds and contradict themselves!
Not here SE weekends going to be wet and 21 according to the BBC website somebody is lying
Warning. You may be able to enjoy the sunshine and go outside. Take care, we want you inside dying of the cold.
Well our grass is never going to recover now lol it’s a fucking desert here in the south west lol
People have to keep the windows and doors shut to stop the hest coming in when its that hot
My parents were moaning its hot last year in the house during last years 40c heatwave. Yet they had all the windows and doors open. I said keep them shut, your letting in all that 40c air and its warming the room
They didnt get it
This thread is a perfect example of people not understanding what humanity is heading for because:
“It was the same in 1990’s” or “Breaking News: it’s going to be nice and sunny”.
The reason this is breaking news is because climate change has had the UK consistently breaking temperature records in consecutive years.
But I guess it’s easier to just say it’s always been this way.
It’s not been that warm in Lancashire. Cool east wind.
I like the way the beeb is adopting the “everything is scary, click bait, DISASTER” method of reporting as the red tops. One day there will be 30c in Feb which will be a crisis and everyone will take no notice.
It’s sweltering in North Cornwall today but *so windy*, really unpleasant not being able to have the windows open on the shady side of the house because the wind keeps slamming them shut.

Um. Yay? [I get rain and thunderstorms instead? ](https://i.imgur.com/6FHryXr.jpg)
It’s 30c not 45c people need to calm the fuck down.
Maybe people would like to remember 33 years ago when 1990 was a hot year, it happens, it’s not a recent thing.
