I don't know about all the rest of you's but it was over 30 degrees yesterday and I for one have had enough and am seriously considering a move to a country like Norway or something [lol] I can't be doing with it anymore! If its over like 25 degrees I strat to get ill and at the moment I have the worst stomach ache and headache. I'm sitting here with a massive fan thing blowing on full power and I'm still a sweating mess [lol]. It was so hot last night that I slept outside, on the garden with only a pair of boxers on, I can't believe that it would be this hot in this country ..... it just shouldn't be!

Why is the weather in this country so erratic anyways? You watch, it'll snow tomorrow [lol]. The weather is never one thing or the other, its hot for 3 days then cold for 3 days, then rainy for 3 days then windy for 3 days, then hot and rainy for 3 days, then cold and cloudy for 3 days ...... and so on, its never really possible to distinguish when its summer or winter [lol], except for on days like yesterday and today, when the entire country just comes to a stop because everyones on the floor going "water .... water! I need water!" [lol] Although thats probably just me heh heh, because the heat does wierd things to me, it makes me feel ill, it makes me feel really sleepy but makes it impossible for me to actually fall asleep ...... I guess I'm just not made for this ...... roll on winter is all I can say

Yeah, this heat is killing me, i guess i chose a pretty stupid moment in time to move into my new loft room. I have this big towerfan in there but no good. Its literally a sauna and can't stand to play on my new pc for 10 minutes. I feel annoyed because i really want to play on it.

Dammit England![:(!]

Jpecool, you actually ..... like the heat? [lol]

for me 17 degrees centigrade is the perfect temperature, because its not hot and its not cold ...... add rain to that and you've got perfect football weather [:D] Although really I do prefer playing football when it is about 0-5 degrees centigrade, that way you don't overheat [;)] heh heh.

Absolutely rediculous here as well. I had to carry my big heavy bass uphill for half an hour in it yesterday, and i almost collapsed when i'd finished. We're a funny lot, aren't we. We complain when it's cold, and then even more when it's hot.

Its been a super comfortable 70-75 (21-23.8) the last couple days here in Ohio.

However, there was a week where it was 90-95 (32-35) and the humidity was over 85% every day. I sat at my computer and sweated buckets...I hate that. Basically with humidity like that the air felt like 100-105 (37.7-40.5)


I definatly love Spring and Fall, I hate summer. I dont mind winter, I just hate to sweat like crazy. So Im right there with ya, except our weater is absolutly abnormal cool. (I just converted the numbers for you Euro folk...and geez, 30 ISNT so bad if 30 is mid 80's. Thats not hot at all. Where I work, it can get up to 125. (yup, 51C)

30C sounds pretty good about now around here. Prolly won't see it again for several months. And I feel for you, Real. I also work in a hot environment, with temps during the summer averaging about 130-140F.

Here's my weather forecast for the week. [:(!]

Kev, I think I'd die [lol] 72F at NIGHT! would actually kill me, I would collapse and die .... then melt.

It was 34C at its hottest yesterday here in the UK, now considering, the highest temperature ever recorded here in the UK, was last year and was just a little over 100F (about 100.3F), then I think 34C is DAMN hot for the UK. [lol] We're just not made for this, well I'm certainly not, I haven't moved in 2 days [lol]

[lol] @gouldy. Hopefully you have air conditioning in your house. I know a lot of people here that live in the northern states don't have a/c, and they usually fry for a few days during the summer. It's just now getting hot here in OK. By the end of July, it will be about 100-110F with nighttime temps being about 80F.

Only real saving grace for you guys is generally your humidity is a bit lower than us in the Great Lakes region. We get all this blasted moisture and it just kills.

However, I still wouldnt like the Plains states weather, way, way too hot.

Yeah I have exams, I have one tomorrow, I don't know how I'm going to cope with the heat in the exam hall, and with my stomach aching and my head aching like bastards. At least my exam tomorrow is in the morning so it won't be AS hot, it'll still be way too hot though ...... gay.

Pfft, last week the temperature in my backyard was 43 celcius with 98% humidity!
And last Sunday my friends band played a show inside of this hot concert hall, it was about 38 celcius with 100% humidity! I could barely see the top of the CN Tower because there was a hazy mist in the air. Good thing I had backstage passes and got to go in the only air conditioned room in the building :D

I'm just hoping this summer isn't as bad as last summer. Last year my town had an entire week where the temperature didn't go below 37 celcius, including at night.

But just watch, in 6 months time I will be complaining of the cold. I love living in an area that gets both extremes. -30 in the winter and +40 in the summer [lol]

You have it bad? Lol, well weather changing wise at least, I live in Colorado, and people that live there, know that it can be sunny 5 min later, then the next 5 min, can be pouring down snow... Colorado has 5 seasons instead of 4, [;)]. We have summer, fall, winter, spring, and mud season [lol]

OK, what did I say in my very first post ... "you watch, it'll snow tomorrow" .... well, I didn't have to wait till tomorrow as it turned out [lol] At about 5 Oclock yesterday afternoon, all of a sudden BANG! massive thunderstorm, ridiculously heavy rain, then MASSIVE hale stones, I know its not quite snow but its still ice [lol], they were huge though, theres a big dent on my cars bonnet (hood) from one of them. they were like, just smaller than ping pong balls. All you could here was BANG BANG BANG BANG [lol] as they smashed off the cars. Also yesterday, it went from being the hottest and dryest day of the year, straight into the wettest day of the year in parts, there was flash floods all over the place causing a lot of damage. Thats the heaviest rain I've seen for a long time and it was the biggest hale stones I've ever seen [lol]

Such randomly erratic weather [lol]
