[Misc] The what’s the temperature or heat feel where you are at the moment thread

[PeakGull]

37.2° at 1pm in mid-Derbyshire compared to 32.3 at same time yesterday - just been out to get some lunch and it's like stepping into an oven.

 

[KZNSeagull]

About 36 outside oop here now. That must be a record for this part of the country

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Hit 33.3c here about 10 minutes ago

 

[Eeyore]

I've never seen 35 degrees in Brighton before, although I did see the Three Degrees.

 

[Brok]

40c exceeded at Heathrow

It's always Heathrow.

I don't suppose hundreds of jet engines help much.

It's always Heathrow.

I don't suppose hundreds of jet engines help much.

Heathrow will be overtaken soon anyway

 

[RandyWanger]

In Borough area of London and just went out for lunch. Stepping out the airconditioned building onto the street feels like stepping off the plane in an asian summer.

Is there a current record for Sussex?

 

[GrizzlingGammon]

38.4 in the shade in my garden.

Is there a current record for Sussex?

According to the Met Office, the current record for the hottest temperature in Sussex is 35.6C, recorded on July 19, 2006 in the village of Wiggonholt, near Pulborough.

Just driven down to Worthing seafront to pick up Igzilla jr - car thermometer settled at 33.

According to the Met Office, the current record for the hottest temperature in Sussex is 35.6C, recorded on July 19, 2006 in the village of Wiggonholt, near Pulborough.

I believe this has already been beaten as West Wittering had temperatures higher than that earlier.

 

[Mellotron]

Got into the jalopy for a quick lunch jaunt - 35.5c. Oof.

Down in Arundel though, there's a nice breeze which is making a big (positive) difference. Definitely warm enough though.

Think I'll stay indoors with the fan... my car is showing 40C outside, and is currently a toasty 62C (143.6F) inside!



Edit: Make that 66C (150.8F) which is impressive considering the decent sunscreen I've got...

It's only 39°C in Dubai today.

I'm going to Heathrow for my holidays.

Only been to Dubai once and that Dubai heat is one reason would not rush back. Im sure you cope living there but i couldnt !

I believe this has already been beaten as West Wittering had temperatures higher than that earlier.

I think that's a different Wittering. RAF Wittering

 

[KZNSeagull]

The weatherman on BBC Look North has just used Fahrenheit (or old money as he called it) for the first time this year I have seen. 102 in Ripon.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

There aren't many official Met Office stations showing on this interactive map.

[Brok]

Phone showing 36 here, so I'm going to stick it in the fridge for half an hour to see how accurate it is...

Really?? That sounds awful. Does it work? I would have thought naked feet all the way.

It helps me get off to sleep...helps cool the body temperature slightly, and I find it more acceptable than a wet flannel round the neck. I'm talking nighttime of course!!
