Red Alert

Somewhere between 31-36C here depending what app I use. Sunny too but I thought I'd take lunch outside. Actually fairly nice. I wouldn't want to be working outside but it certainly wasn't the wall of heat you experience in Dubai. A hot breeze though - that's pretty unusual.

Came back to my office and 22C now feels quite cold, I'm resisting finding a jumper while my body reacclimatises.

I'm fine there is loads of greenery where I live.

If you read the article it is people in places like Brent who have an issue.

I bet Slough must be absolutely balmy now as well.

I don't live in Slough so you need to ask Vetran..

Pressure now 1014.
Humidity was 49% at 6.40am, now 67% and rising.
Rain had eased for a few minutes, but is now full on.

Well, that didn't take long to arrive. Currently big heavy drops of rain falling.

Same here, south of Bath. Lovely smell of ozone in the air.

Stopped raining now, but the humidity is still climbing.

Severe thunderstorm warnings now in NE.

Since the SE is on fire they could probably do with the rain.

All around me temperatures of 40 degrees were reached by 4pm

Only 35.2 in my garden. Easily bad enough.
