It’s not so bad 😅 it’ll get hotter probably. It’s the pollen that is killing me 🤧

@adorbz it’s too hot for me, it wouldn’t be so bad if the house was cold so I could go inside and cool down

@adorbz A couple of years ago it hit 48.3 degrees here one day. That is hot. It cooked my tomatoes....

I've been sleeping under a quit cover with no quilt in and I'ma still too hot at night, I accidentally knocked me lamp over last night, in turn this knocked my full glass of water all over my quilt cover and bed, couldn't be arsed to get a fresh one so slept under a wet cold quilt cover, best nights sleep I've had in ages!

@AntisocialTroll my nana always tells me to sleep under a wet towel when it’s too hot. I know what you mean about not being arsed - I’m currently being taunted by the sounds of an ice cream van but I ain’t moving 😂😂

No, I have all the blinds shut & doors & windows open, with fan going 😊

@SW-User One thing I’d do, is blast the hairdryer on cool shot, all over my nakedness 🤣
SW-User
@BalmyNites I could see that working too. We have a chest freezer in the garage and I’m so tempted to go and sit in it
BalmyNites · F
@SW-User Omg lol, don't be cooking those burgers up on the bbq afterwards 😂
mrh1972 · MVIP
If we complain about it it will rain and probably get windy and snow. Lol
SW-User
@mrh1972 this is true, I just wish air con was a thing here then at least you could cool down
mrh1972 · MVIP
@SW-User makes you want to go sit in someone car lol
Its really hot here in the US but I take a few cool showers and that helps and sometimes I wear damp clothes around the house.
SW-User
Yeah..I have to be near water when it’s like this because I can’t take it
SW-User
It’s so hot @SW-User
SW-User
@SW-User yeah. Did you try the ice cube bowl in front of the fan thing??
Spokeskitties75 · 46-50, M
Yes… we sent it over from the USA…. Sorry, it’s a Jet Stream thing… 🤷‍♂️
SW-User
@Spokeskitties75 I hope you sent it with a return address 🥵🥵🥵🥵
Spokeskitties75 · 46-50, M
@SW-User it’s cooler now…. We will be sending that too
vetguy1991 · 51-55, M
Pretty hot here in the states
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
No air conditioning in the UK?
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@BalmyNites Just wear less clothes to cool off.
BalmyNites · F
@MrBrownstone Yes, I’m just in a short cotton slip today

I’m used to keeping cool in the heat, I spent a few Summers in Germany, now that’s what you call hot 🌞

Ohhhhhh you have no idea how bad it can be. Try living in that weather from May into October and you will have an idea of what real sufferering is. 😂

Fantastic. England must lose the test match to New Zealand
KiwiBird · 36-40, F
@Nomad7 They already did, by eight wickets.
Nomad7 · 22-25, M
@KiwiBird Unfortunately the weather couldn't save them this time round
KiwiBird · 36-40, F
@Nomad7 England could have won the first test. The target wasn't unreasonable...they didn't even try.
smiler2012 · 56-60
{@sophiemiles] 😆 come to where i am in north west england cloudy overcast the sun trying to break through now
SW-User
@smiler2012 I’m north east so it’s normally rare for us to get into double digits
Adamski24 · 41-45, M
Even in the shade, it's hot, I'm loving the air con we're lucky to have. The children are also making use of our pools and beach
ozgirl512 · 26-30, F

ozgirl512 · 26-30, F
@mysteryespresso warmish 🤣
KiwiBird · 36-40, F

ozgirl512 · 26-30, F
@KiwiBird still, the brollies will be handy ...
SW-User

Not sure how it would work with getting rain all the time, but some people get a window A/C unit, and will leave it in for the hot seasons and remove it until needed again. But that's all in the states, not sure how that all would work elsewhere.
Beatbox34 · 31-35, M
How hot?

It was about 44°C where I live.
Beatbox34 · 31-35, M
@BalmyNites Actually I wish it was always hot lol. It changes. I mean the monsoon has started and this is the worst time to be here. It's going to be damp lol and the worst part about the monsoons is the roads are swimming pools 😅.

We Indians don't get a subsidy for anything lol. It's either given as a subsidy and taken away in taxes to be eventually marked as NIL 😂
BalmyNites · F
@Beatbox34 Yes but it’s not cold, despite the monsoon 😊 Consider this is our Summer time & right up until the last couple of weeks, we had minus temps overnight

Ahh yes, I hear you 😊
Beatbox34 · 31-35, M
@BalmyNites Interesting.
empanadas · 31-35, M
