More will die in winter than summer but it doesn’t for the narrative for the media. Yes any death is sad but this green agenda is destroying the economy. More people will die being in poverty than a warm couple of days in the uk

For those without fans and AC, put some wet facecloths or towels in the freezer or fridge. Failing that cold water on your chest, upper thighs and arms. The evaporation will bring some relief

If I had a beer every time I saw or heard ‘1976’, I’d be Boris Yeltsin 2.0.

The UK’s houses and buildings are largely built for weather that we don’t have anymore. It starts getting uncomfortably hot for me in April. Summers go into September and sometimes even October can have the odd scorcher. Winters are obviously cooler but they aren’t the winters I remember from the 90s, they are just like dull autumn days. It doesn’t always snow either, and I’m in Scotland btw.
It is absolutely roasting here today. My dogs are lying flat on the floor and groaning. One has longer hair and refused to go out.

Who actually dies when it’s 30 degrees outside? When it was 40 a couple of years ago, fair enough, but this isn’t even that hot

In 6 months the headlines would be Frozen Britain in parts of the UK as rise in deaths likely.

Glad I spent the money on integrated AC for the house. Only use it a few times a year, but it’s more than paid for itself from the comfort it brings!

This is the third or fourth time they’ve run this headline, or one very similar, since May. Each time the bricks get a little bit hotter and don’t get enough time to cool down turning our houses into pizza ovens.
The sunshine is nice and all but really hope this is the last time I read this headline. Bring the rain.

A reminder that this UKHSA warnings aren’t intended for the general public.
These are mostly for agencies to prepare for hot weather related issues. So more people at beaches and lakes, more vulnerable people requiring support and traffic congestion to tourist spots.
If you are a normal generally healthy person there is nothing to worry about. If there is a real danger to the general public from extreme heat the metoffice will issue a wether warning.

It’s like two extremes out there at the moment
People dressed for the middle of winter, and people walking around half naked

Got lucky here. Couple of days ago it was showing 30C here for tomorrow. Now showing 24C. That’s quite a big difference in forecasting in the space of two days.

I understand babies or the very old may struggle in the heat, but surely for everyone else it’s just a warm summers day. Early 30’s in summer is practically the norm in large (perhaps even the majority) parts of the world.
Makes me laugh so many people moaning. Majority of the year it’s depressing grey clouds, surely a nice spell of weather is a welcome boost.

ITS CALLED SUMMER!1!1!! Back in t‘ day it was hotter than the surface of the sun. All we did was rub crisp and dry into our skin and enjoy slow roasting for a few hours……FFS.

I had to go out earlier. The heat was oppressive. My eyelids were sweating.
I have to go to work later. I’m not looking forward to it, although there is air-conditioning so other won’t be too bad.

It’s not even that hot today. I’m someone who really doesn’t deal with the heat and this year hasn’t been all that bad. But I think I’m traumatised by being 8 months pregnant the year we hit 40 degrees so maybe that’s why. It is getting far more common though. I can’t remember having temps over 30 even 5 years ago, hopefully air con and things will become more standard if this is life now!

If you die because it’s hot in summer or cold in winter you were probably on your way out anyway. Just nature innit
Kushbeast666 on
It’s warm alright. Walked into m&s and dandered about for a half hour due to the air con. It was glorious. Then, I walked out to the car and immediately burnt myself on the leather seats. Then the gear knob. Should have just stayed in the shop lol
