A top tip from truckers who night out is to use the cool mats on the vents to get quasi AC. I guess you could do the same with a fan.

The problem with this heatwave isnt the level of heat but the length of time its here. We are going to need a REALLY wet autumn to replenish the amount of water we have lost so I honestly cannot wait for Monday and the predicted storms!
Yeah hot cold hot cold hot cold is better than hot hot hot hot hot hot cold cold cold cold cold cold.
These hot nights also now have someone throwing a street party right outside my front door, music on etc. about 20-30 teenagers.
The older post preciting accuweather predictions would chance.
Initially they were predicting 27-29C temps, when I checked yesterday it was 30-31C, now for the rest of the heatwave its 32-34C. The end is now predicted to be the 17th, so extended as well.
Low pressure it seems nowhere near the UK until Sunday. Storms that day at the north west. East, Central and south maintaining dry heat.

Air conditioning in car should provide better temp than most peoples houses ? .. unless you have a greenhousepan glass roof w/o shield
e: yes costs fuel though.
e2: need an S class Since 2017, they have offered in Europe the S- and E-Class as the first production passenger cars equipped with CO₂ air conditioning systems. Thanks to their especially quick and high cooling performance, CO₂ air conditioning systems immediately provide a comfortable climatecontrolled cabin even during very hot weather

Blimey this heatwave is dragging on isn't it, all the days Friday onwards at the beginning of the week for us were manageable mid 20s now around 30, I thought we'd be over the worse by now but no its wants more heat. none stop sunshine, not seen a cloud for nearly a week now, now its all the way till Tuesday before we get normal British summer weather. Also had us down for quite a few thunder storms for next week but all thats vanished of our forcast, was looking forward to a good downpour for the garden, light rain now for tuesday, hope its more heavy.
Not sure if this is in reply to me, but I mean I'm not looking forward to leaving the coast and getting back home. The air con in the car is amazing.
Currently the forecast for Monday does show rain, but it doesn't seem to be where it's needed most.
