Here yesterday it got up to 93f (about 34c) with 75% humidity luckily we've go whole house AC, i dred the electric bill coming. One thing we used to do when we didn't have AC was to put a large bowl of ice in front of the desk fan and let the chilled air just wash over us....nice!
It's not supposed to be this humid here in the Piedmont, if I wanted high heat and humidity I'd move in next door to santaman2000.

Being a ginger ninja, this weather is like garlic to vampires for me... I'd rather be in the shade of a tree than the garden!
Patrick's kind of weathered looking sometimes anyway, but if he's anything like HWMBLT (who walked 15+ miles up near Aviemore yesterday) he'll be looking like an old salt

I'm trying to think of a way of jamming both back and front doors open to see if I can generate a through going draught
It's not working with just the windows.Everything's growing like Jack's beanstalk
My freckles are starting to join up
I can't say it's a 'tan' exactly, but it's definitely sun stained atb,

Long may it continue!
A very pleasant 24 here today although we do have all the doors open at work and fans creating a sort of wind tunnel effect which is very nice indeed. Our excellent work uniform of black jeans and black long sleeved polo shirts makes for a fairly warm day!

Nivea sell a factor 50 kids waterproof sunblock that's pretty comfortable to wear.....just apply little and often.
Touch wood, but I haven't burnt despite the sunshine
Tell you though, there are folks walking around that look like burnt leather :yikes: not sure that's good for the skin, tbh.
I've been eyeing up a new hat.....I know I'm going to get laughed at over it, but it's tempting, really tempting.

These days I always wear a 'Rogue' leather hat and factor 50 after a having a few bits chopped out of me questioning skin cancer.
Look after your skin folks it's the only one you get!

I was in Merthyr Tydfil today and the fashion trends were
Young girls...cut off shorts and sleveless tops
Young men...Bermuda shorts and flip flops (no top)
Men over forty...Bermuda shorts, vests and flip flops.
Its a real fashion power house here in the valleys and you could hear flesh searing as you walked around. I think there will be one or two very, very, very sore people later on tonight.
It hit 29 here this afternoon, just a bit warm. I have discovered a fun Web site that tracks live where there are lightning strikes. There are currently storms creeping up from the south west so we shall probably get them later this evening here in Somerset. http://www.lightningmaps.org
I'm in the North Sea, all we have is fog! Its been foggy since Monday night and we've had no flights since Monday. Theres a lot of sad people here at the moment. The longer the good weather onshore the more likely we'll be fog bound! The current back log of flights is around 80! I might not even get off next tuesday at this rate. The summer will be gone by then!
88f (31c) here now and that's probably as hot as it will get today; relatively a nice, cool Summer's day!

I just looked up average humidity for both of us. 75% is normal average for us both. Low 90s in the morning and low to mid 60s in the afternoon. TBH 75%
The national average (other than the desert southwest) is pretty close to that. 50% to 80%
It hit 34.9degC in the back garden today, and it's now down to a blessedly cooler 24C
It's still too warm, but it's an awful lot more bearable
