It’s hot

Yeah sick of those idiots. I am 58 and remember it well. Water shortages too. Not too many people were aware of the dangers of too much sun on exposed skin then. I remember being on holiday in Devon then. This couple were sunbathing by a river and I cannot tell you how brown they were through sunbathing. Like someone had put gravy browning all over them. Probably both died eventually of skin cancer.
People were obviously less informed then, my criticism is those like pointed out in clarksons tweet, who are using 76 to make light of this present weather that could cause illness and death

The Love Island Generation, panicking about 2 warmer than normal days.

This comes across as a proper simpleton/boomers analysis of the situation.

Nobody is panicking over '2 warmer than normal days', they are panicking because this will become the norm....

I'm from Australia originally and last summer apparently we didn't even get a day over 40. It's insane to think that the UK will and this country is absolutely not built for it.

I was at an airshow yesterday, we took our shelter tent to get out of the sun as we knew it was going to be too much. I don't get the amount of people just lying in it literally all day... Some of them looked torched on the way out and there were a few ambulances blue lighting taking people who'd obviously had too much.

The UV rating gets to 8 in places today which is pretty equivalent to the conditions you get in a desert. How many people would lie out in the sun in the middle of a desert?
 
5pm is said to be when Manchester will be at it's hottest 36°, just in time for the rush hr traffic.

Stay hydrated and safe all those in work or out then thankfully I am off and will be indoors
