Wot a scorcher!

I prefer Spring sunshine and that wonderful invigorating soft breeze you often get. This Summer heat is too much and saps energy. Also it can ruin your skin and cause long term damage.

I’m loving it, we’re due some rain this afternoon and I may go stand outside

Soaking up every minute of it here.

I too am one of those whose aches and pains go away in hot weather, so I have trimmed a hedge, carted the cuttings to the pile, dug about 2 square ft of tough grass up so I can extend my vegetable patch (can't do more today, if I am to be able to move tomorrow) and the heat makes me absolutely starving!

It’s a mild 22° here and raining on and off. The rain is so welcome I didn’t even bother to go inside, just got damp.

Me too. The heat makes me really ill. Roll on winter?

Casdon this weather induces homicidal mania in me. Anyone who says 'Isn't it lovely?' is sailing very close to an unpleasant and messy death. I detest every second. So there.

It’s often 95 degrees Fahrenheit here in North Carolina and while used to it I still hate it. I find myself counting the days until October

Really have to LOL at the term "scorcher" when it is 24!!!
When we lived in Oz, the temperature over one week in our back garden was 46 with overnight no lower than 38 for a month. Now THAT'S "scorching". Anything less is mild.....

It was 32° at 11am here in Normandy. Shutters are tight shut and aircon is on upstairs. We are also watering at 7am and indoors by midday.

I desperately want it to rain. I live on a narrow boat and am sitting at an angle in very shallow water. Ducks are paddling where they once could swim. Saucepans slide off of stove. Doors won't stay shut. I can't use my washing machine as it can't drain because of the angle. It is also difficult to walk along boat.... Is not just me...most boaters where I am are in same predicament. We all desperately want rain....

Hotter here today as well high 20s. I have a hairdresser's appointment later today and not looking forward to it. My hairdresser is on holiday for two weeks from Friday so can't cancel. At least they have air con in the salon.

The good thing about being single is that you dont have to worry about being "decent" in this really hot weather. I am typing this wearing nothing but socks and flip flops!

I dont answer the door to people without appointments. My nephew is expected later today but not til 6 pm.

However one day I brought one of the outside cameras in to re-charge and it was a very hot day. Forgot camera was facing into the room and I was walking around naked.

Wooops! Quickly deleted all pictures.

Now I automatically turn them to face the wall.

Love the sunny hot weather makes for better days.

I have heart failure and am being treated for cancer amongst other things. I find any sort of warm weather quite frightening as my breathing is not good. The hotter it gets the more I panic as the air quality seems really poor. It reached 30c here yesterday and the beginning of next week they are saying 35c I for one can't wait for Autumn, some frost and fresh winds would go down a treat right now

I like warm, sunny weather; but when it climbs past 25/26 degrees, I find it too much, so I’m not looking forward to this coming Sunday & Monday with temps forecast to reach 33/34 degrees where I live. That’s too hot to be comfortable for me, as the house gets like an oven despite closing curtains facing the full sun & opening windows in the shady part, then swapping it around as the sun moves round. The plus side is it saves on the heating bills a bit.

Like being warm as it does not cost money, having heating on in winter is too much cost now! Do not like extreme heat though as find it difficult to walk normally but heat makes it harder! As my Nan said ‘ Oh poor me, how sad, too bad’! ?

Horrible heat.
I have just forced myself to wash the kitchen floor( on my hands and knees) before it gets any hotter. That is all the exercise I intend to take for today. There is no sun here at the moment but it is very hot and humid.

I love the heat but don't sunbathe as much as I used to. I have Lupus anyway so not supposed to. I play golf and the ball runs beautifully in the heat but it is exhausting. I'm up in the North West so its not so hot anyway.

Thankfully cloudy here in North Devon at the moment…

I’m staying on the seafront in Brighton, and it’s been quite pleasant, with a wee breeze, and air conditioning inside. I’ll have no problem with heat when I return to bonnie Scotland!

open the loft hatch around 8pm when the ouside air is cooler than the house, open some windows too. The warm air will move upwards through the loft air vents, particularly the ones in the ridge tiles. Leave that system in place all night and then reverse at around 6am, when the sun starts to warm the roof and certain windows

It is going to be much worse from the end of the week

Another one who hates the heat.
I have just read that it is going to rain here in the west mid`s.
It may clear the air a little with luck.

there's a warning for sunday , very high temperatures forecast.

I’m enjoying the heat too. It’s brought some reduction in constant pain and is welcome for that alone, heat also relaxes me and I tend to sleep better. We’re all different for sure. I’m fortunate enough to live close to an often windy coastline, two hours there this afternoon and the evening sitting in the garden have been wonderful. I know it’s not the same for everyone, it will cool down soon and be your turn to be comfortable.

I absolutely love this heat. Sorry for all of those who are either uncomfortable or miserable. You can have your revenge for most of the year as I'm pretty unhappy in any degree of cold and there's certainly plenty of that.
