It's too hot :(

I think the heatwave last year is distorting your view on UK summers - the UK average for July is 20c for most parts of England, in Scotland the July averages are 16-18c. This weather is absolutely business as usual for us

Perhaps...but then we've had no 3-5 day heatwaves with temperatures exceeding 25 Celsius and you would expect this in July...this prolonged repetitive cooler spell is odd.

not odd just what i would expect as the gulf stream has slowed and moved ...i am expecting a winter like the Canadians though .. brutal for the uk

The temperatures are fine at the moment, we don't want 40 degrees heatwave or even 30, 22 is fine.

It’s not when there‘s no sun, just dismal cloud making it feel colder

22 would be ok but yesterday lunchtime here in the East Midlands was 15

20c currently here with not much sun and it feels warm, wouldnt want it much higher

 

[tom_e]

I'd settle for some dry weather right now

 

[iron_monkey]

20c sunny and dry would do me

I assume this falls under this thread. https://www.theguardian.com/science...sult-of-climate-crisis-scientists-attribution

I prefer a cooler summer tbh, it's more comfortable, less pollen.

It will be a colder snowier harsher winter this year in the UK. Its the first el nino year for almost 5 years and its looking like it will be a very strong el nino too. So this winter that will mean that in Canada (where I spend the winter) it will be warmer with less snow and here in the UK it will be colder with more snow.

Its a cycle, not all that unusual. El Nino years in recent times have been 2003 to 2007, 2014 to 2016 and 2018. The past few years have been a mix of mostly El Nina years with the occasional neutral year. Commonly El Nino years cause hotter summers in Europe and colder winters, so far this year its followed that pattern as normal, especially with it being a particularly strong El Nino

Takes some balls to be a fire fighting pilot and sadly the risk of the job is the narrow margins between safely dropping the water on the fire and getting clipped

I wonder if with a rise in wild fires, we'll see a rise in fire fighting related aircraft crashes

Yet another dull day here. 15c in the last week of July is pathetic. The only slight positive is that it's not been as wet as the past few weeks

22 sounds amazing considering we've only broken out of the teens twice this month. Awful ******* summer.

Nothing wrong with 30 though tbh.

My eyes!

It burns!!

A strange, glowing, hot bright thing has appeared in the sky!!!

We're all doomed, doomed I tell thee!

A lovely pleasant 14 c here, and the sun's out. Supposed to pour down later though, something I'm sure they'd love in southern Europe right about now.
RIP to that firefighting aircrew, a dangerous job. Apparently 10 soldiers were killed in Algeria a few days ago fighting a fire too when the wind changed and it caught them

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

It's actually sunny and warm ish!!

 

[uscool]

its too Hot

I'm actually sitting in the garden, in the sun. Bit to hot though, gonna go back inside.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Actually quite nice today and not a terrible temperature in the sun, but then heavy rain from dinner time. Saves on watering the garden I guess. Bills will be at an all time low.
