It's quite hot today, tomorrow might be hottest day in UK and some other countries. 
Luckily it looks like it be a lot cooler on Friday and the weekend, normal service resumed of it being much cooler and pissing it down.

I can't bring myself to "like" this post - it's pretty crazy.
Holland, Belgium and Germany all saw new all-time high temperature records set today... and tomorrow the UK could follow suit. But even if it doesn't break the record of 38.5 deg C, it is still likely to smash the UK's July record of 36.7 deg C... and that will be the second monthly all-time temperature record set this year, as February 2019 has already seen the February record smashed by a scary 1.5 degrees.
2019 is still very much on course to be the hottest year on record globally, but the speed and scale of temperature increases across Europe are really quite disturbing.
This is just a weather trend. The weather has trends as well. There is no such thing as climate change and global warming.
Indeed. I wonder what will happen to the world, climate in 20 odd years.

I'm currently on a super busy train to London and even though it's only 8am the A/C is already struggling to keep up, luckily I don't need to use the tube today.
EDIT: Now on the way home and the train A/C can't keep up despite it only being 33°C/91.4°F outside. I dread to think what it will be like when it reaches 38/100 later this afternoon.

Official status: hot
I hate this weather. Anything above 30c I start sweating and can't get decent sleep. That thunderstorm night before last was a Godsend - stuck my legs out the door in the rain and watched the lightning.
It's already killed my PS4, can it stop short of killing me? Please? Send help.

It is 4:15 pm at the moment and it is 43.2°C in the sun.
I have decided to take my bicycle and go for a short ride (around 10 - 15 km/h). I like hot weather but I don't like the cold.
EDIT:
It is 5:45 pm and still almost 41°C in the shade. I love it. I really do.

It looks like Cambridge could be in with a shot of holding the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded in the UK! When I reached home it had dropped to 37°C but it was fairly pleasant providing you didn't do any vigorous exercise. Indoors it was horrible but we have an A/C unit now so we can sleep in more reasonable temperatures.
As it happens yesterday it dropped to about 16° again so normal service was resumed
EDIT: In typical fashion it's now flooding in Manchester
