So.....40°C on Monday in London
« on: 15 July 2022, 14:08:01 »

We'll see but, even though only a measly 38° forecast up here, I'm staying in after 11am.

I will be trying to sleep between shifts ! but when at work in the evenings A/C ill be turned down as low as it will go.
Also need to keep an eye on pets in those temps. Apparently even the little Tortoise will struggle if it cant dig itself down to hide in cooler soil.

Back in the day we were told it's going to be very hot tomorrow so get out there and enjoy it. :y

In 2022 nanny tell us to be careful and afraid. :-\

People have been dealing with hot weather long before there was any form of government.

The summer of 76 was blisteringly hot for weeks on end. Hose pipe bans and water shortages everywhere. :)

Before I was born but I have heard the stories. :)

76, I remember doing stage rallies that year in my ultra lightweight Cooper S. Perspex windows that didn’t open ( except for navigators side which had a disc for paperwork) No fan mechanism either.

So far I've heard; Trains stopping due to buckled tracks. Some (most) trains don't have AC and the windows don't open, so you'll be done to a turn by the time anyone reaches you. Car engines overheating and stopping, leaving you in a mobile microwave on the motorway. Tyres bursting, leaving you in a mobile.....blah, blah. Death from heat stroke, heart attack or stroke. Hospitals being overwhelmed and equipment not working (that's assuming you get to the hospital and the ambulance hasn't broken down and microwaved the paramedics).
All we need now is pestilence and locusts.  ;D

Iirc one day in 76 reached around 35. Nowhere near what is predicted for next week.  :)

The BBC only just stopped short of this, but there is a few days left before the world comes to a fiery end. ::)

A quick Google shows a peak of 36.......5 consecutive days of 35 or over, and 15 consecutive days of 32 or over.

I doubt it will make 40 but even if it does it makes for a great opportunity to enjoy the sun, drink beer, and have sweaty sex. :y
