Whoever enjoys, or wishes for this kind of heat seriously needs to see a psychiatrist!  Boiling in my office, fans on full blast and I have the dreaded train journey home later, just so I can sit sweating in my front room till it's time to lay in bed boiling to death.  Did I ever say this kind of weather also makes me a tad tetchy?

Sitting under a shady tree at the back of our house. Have set up the hose on a stick so it is about 6ft off the ground with one of those water guns. Used the mist setting.  Doesn’t use too much water and you get a gentle mist blowing around. Nice and cooling.  Helps I don’t have a water meter.

My garden tells me in the shade here it's 34.2. 

Probably not totally correct. But yuck.

A very light breeze mind and a bit excited to see all those storms i will miss.

 Already been getting headaches and feeling a little dizzy.

Really don't think I can drink much more water.

Hard to believe posters on the MAD thread hoping we get to the 40’s on Thursday. This weather is completely worthless when you’ve gotta do a full days work in it, roll on winter with overcast skies and 13 degrees

That's what the GFS is forecasting for Christmas, overcast 13c not 40c

Try getting some electrolytes from a sports drink and get your pulse points cold. ie cold wet flannel on neck and wrists

Thanks , I don’t mind hot weather but when it starts heading into the mid upper 30s that’s hideous .

Anyway an update from French forecasters for Thursday . Temps widely 37 to 42 across a swathe of France running from here , yuk ! to ne France . Locally higher .

They don’t expect the all time French record to go but lots of cities north of France should break their all time records .

You are always welcome here Nick, nice to see you outside of the winter months:) We had a very hot walk along Kingston riverside this morning with the car thermometer registering 24 degrees on the way there and 28 degrees for the drive back to Surbiton. I must say, at 10am it was glorious but now it is sticky and uncomfortable. I dread sleeping in this weather, similar to others I struggle to breathe and had one large fan plus an air purifier on the go last night which worked, but as the brickwork warms and the temperature continues to rise I'm not sure this will still be working on Thursday. We are on the far eastern extent here of the storm warnings for this evening so not holding out hopes - this year we are either too far east or too far west it would appear.
