It’s horrible here on the other side of the Channel as well. Real shitty summer weather, I hate it. And just last Monday I was wearing my coat…

I feel like I would love it in the UK, if 34 is record highs I could absolutely rock that

This is a new record high for May. The current record high across the UK was 40.3 °C (104.5 °F) during the 2022 heatwave, though I wouldn’t be shocked if it gets broken again this year

Ah that sounds similar to where I live in upper Midwest then, that’s a shame, maybe I should just move to canada

So hot… My living room is now up to 25c, was 23 this morning as I am struggling to cool it much overnight.
Can’t open the windows much as our cat is an indoor cat. Had an idea to put a fan in the room to pull air in through the barely open living room window and push it out through the back of the house, back window open slightly and bathroom/kitchen windows open more but behind closed doors.
Keeps the cat safely in the living room/back room and hopefully will reduce the temperature more tonight. Not the strongest of fans but overnight does give it a lot of time to work with and it’s only small openings.
