I think the Autumn suits me more than summer, i can walk without been a sweaty mess, we lose lots of tourists, the decent long period swells start hitting yet we still have mild sea temps up to December, a pristine late September sunny day is my ideal
It's too hot :(

I guess you got to go through summer. It makes September sweeter when it arrives.
Yeah the coast is usually a great place to be on a really hot one, yeah I'm in east yorkshire so if we get it really hot like this weekend its often overly humid, this weekend was much worse than last one though with us, its cooled down outside but the rooms refuse to come down much.

Should I be worried? We might be getting 40cm hail stones. 
Totally, summer for me sometimes when its really hot does seem like a quest to get through, even the latter 2 august weeks I see a major change in the feel of summer, its getting a bit darker earlier which makes a difference with it cooling down more at night, I do think September is my fav month saying goodbye to summer.

Supposedly today is hottest day of the year:

metro.co.uk
Not suprised. I was so hot and sticky I actually contemplated becoming a hermit and spending the whole day in my fridge freezer
It is the stickyness that gets me, I keep getting stuck to my leather sofa if i don't wear a t shirt (because my body is producing sweat by the bucketload) but if you wear a t-shirt, it justs helps your body store heat.
UK’s joint hottest day of the year at 32.2C recorded on Sunday
Summer temperature in Coningsby in Lincolnshire matched by Chertsey in Surrey on 10 June

Today has been the hottest day of the year
The mercury has rocketed to above 30 degrees.

Ooof dunno why but I'm sudden sweating like I've got COVID, dunno why - coolest part of the day and just chilling quite comfortable with just a slow speed fan pointed at me.
Forecasts look like a long summer of heat but mostly upper 20s with the odd day potentially >30, interspersed with the odd cooler but muggier
days, but mostly resuming to days like we've had recently.

Thankfully it was a much cooler night and today is comfortable. Much less grumpy today (well, there's always the resting grumpy face of course)

Haven't been out in it enough for that. Possibly digestion related mixed with it being kind of close/muggy despite being a bit cooler.

Can't afford to get aircon this year due to other house projects, but if anyone wants to get a fan to see them through the summer, the dreo tower fans are amazing. I was surprised at how good they are.
Obviously they don't cool down the room, but they cool you down plenty enough to get a good nights sleep. Very impressed with them.

Which fan blows hardest -- Tower fans and regular fans
Comparing three different tower fans to regular desk fans and pedestal fans, evaluating their ability to move air.The fan I used was the Dreo Pilot max tower...

Yes I hate crowds of people and they are so damn rude and throw thier crap everywhere (the van users are the worst in my car park) I need that sort of space
Nice bit of rain last night
Boo! Very boo to this.Temps were around 28°C which was noticeable when taking a break from riding.
More like this please

Seriously for me I come alive the hotter it gets and have set all my best times riding on some of the hottest days.
Done some long walks abroad a while back in 45°C and walked from Steins (Sandbanks) to the centre of Poole during last years hottest day and so did the OH

Unfortunately it's not fun when being in packed city full of people also cars during this time
Oh course there will always be a downside with any extremes of cold or heat, which was noticed at the weekend in London.
