It's too hot :(

[darael]

30c in my bedroom tonight and feels what can only be described as unhealthy.

Heard the occasional distant rumble here in Somerset but nothing on the map closer than 20-30 miles - shame it seems to all be off the east coast as the energy setup is quite something.

A real shame to be missing it. Just need it slightly west.

Yep, still 23c outside here so this is going to be one in nude with no sheets.

Still warm here but much cooler after some spectacular storms in Suffolk. After a while trying, I finally managed to capture a lightning strike

Heh!

 

[aardvark]

still 30.2 in my bedroom at the moment!

 

[Gundam God]

Got you beat. 23 outside and 34 inside.

 

[MartinPrince]

Heh!

Apologies if the thought of that freaked you out.

 

[.:MBK:.]

Living room reading 26c. Who needs sleep anyway...

Good picture. I wish I'd got my camera out the night before as it was like watching a strobe effect as there were so many in such a short space of time.

I needed a wider lens that I just don't have yet. But as you say, the rate of strikes was astonishing. This one was a 30 second exposure (f/22 ISO 50), and I had plenty of other shots that simply had too many strikes in them, especially those in the clouds, that the image just looked like a load of flash guns going off with no definition.

Ah good one. Lightning strikes are one of my most satisfying images to capture, along with the Milky Way and Aurora.

19.8c in the bedroom, bliss

I've done the aurora (poorly, admittedly, but I was very drunk). Back to Tenerife early next year hopefully to tick off the Milky Way.

Tiny bit of rain now. But my 9000btu has only just leveled all the heat out of the room. Takes a good hour or so but once it has its a nice level. Dread the leccy bill

Shouldn't be insane for one 9000 btu unit. My one uses 800-900 watts under load.

 

[Old Man]

OK, not normal. It has rained twice now for a bit and it's hotter than it was during the day!

Wait, me hears more lightning and maybe more rain please.

We went with a professional aircon install for the house back in March when there wasn’t a waiting list and increased prices because everyone wants it fitted last week. A split inverter system with 3 units. Right now, it’s the best money I’ve ever spent and will also heat in the winter.

We haven’t even changed the high tog duvet - it’s blissful. kitchen/living around is currently a cool 19c

This is definitely the way to do it. What are the noise levels like? Portable unit gets the job done for the bedroom at least but its noisy AF
