I've noticed the met office seem to lowball the actual temps until the day.
It's too hot :(

Still depends on the room size. If you want to cool a big open plan living room or big master bedroom, then yes, but if you just want to cool a 10 square meter office etc then 7-8000 should be ok, even in 30 degree heat. My 9000 cools my 15sqm bedroom just fine.
Make the most of today and tomorrow, what's coming sounds like hell on earth to a hot blooder like me, hope we don't get corona virus in this heatwave OMG imagine having a hot fever in 40+
What I don't fully understand is why do we get all these heatwaves when its nice like today, what causes it all of a sudden to be cranked up to temperatures we've never seen before and breaking records each year.
I still can't workout why 1976 was mental weather for a whole summer either, weather is weird and unpredictable I guess.

1976 wasn't actually mental in terms of max temperatures compared to these days, it was more the length of sustained higher temperatures and lack of rain
ha ha, was just talking to someone in Edinburgh who said similar. He's just put his heating onsods banging on about air conditioners......while some of us are sat with duvets wrapped round us while looking at heat maps lovingly and forlornly. moaning bunch of ninnies

The cloud has gone here and it looks like we have 9 days of uninterrupted sunshine. Looks like I’ll be watering the garden at least once a day.
Best to do it at night so the water doesn't evaporate as quick
