I'm dreading going to bed. Its almost bordering on "warm but comfortable" now, with the fan blowing directly on me, I wont sleep with it on though.

Yeah Rob needs it to be bang on 30c to be uncomfortable

Yeah another thing to add during this hot spell no point trying to game with computer dumping heat as well

can't wait till it's over

Cannot wait till Monday when it cools down! Flat is a hot box.

Lizard man!

My bedroom is almost 26c and 61% humidity, so I'm also in the "not looking forward to not sleeping tonight" club.

If it wasn't for the high humidity, this heat would have been nice. Otherwise it's been mostly unbearable.

26C indoors here and i've unfortunately just had to close all the windows due to the amount of insects that had found their way inside, would rather be hot with no creepy crawlies.

Just got back having been out all evening. Had to close the windows due to the threat of a Thunderstorm, and it has rained.

32C in here.

Kill me now.

27.7C and 72% humidity according to the clock in my room, 86% humidity according to the nearby weather station - forecast to hit 94% outdoors overnight.

I'm not having trouble sleeping though - point a small USB fan at my bed at 75% speed and I'm comfortable enough to sleep, trying to do anything is horrific though.

It's cooled down nicely. Helps I'm not stuck in the factory as I'm on the fork truck. Had some lightening earlier but no sign of any rain.

I saw a couple of flashes earlier, must have been pretty distant as I didn't hear anything.

It's close to 30c in my flat and 92% humidity. Worse yet it's on the top floor on the corner, situated to get blasted with sun literally all day. It's like living in an oven, I've got fans I run but I'm going to have to invest in an AC unit. I swear this heatwave is going to see me off.

Woke up not long ago absolutely gone all the way through the towel with sweat on to quilt cover, extremely unpleasant, can hear lots of dogs barking in distance and can see health alerts on phone due to extreme weather conditions.

A lucky escape this summer to not have to deal with this through july and august.

Currently accuweather predicts a storm today followed by a rapid descent back to pre heat wave temps within 48 hours, will it be right though.

Current night temp is higher than day temp 10 days ago, crazy, a 10 degrees swing in such short time is mental, similar to last December when we had a large swing downwards.
