It is swelteringly hot in Europe atm, and that plume is making it’s way over here
What do you do to keep cool?
It's meant to be 31°C in my area on Saturday. I'll need to cool down with iced drinks and stock up on ice-cream 
Wow, that will be warm indeed. Just as well there seems to be lots of cold drinks and ice cream on offer 
Even spending time looking for such products in the supermarkets will keep you cool 
I have filled the paddling pool in anticipation !!! Ive got grandkids staying over the weekend so figure the pool will warm up through out today and tomorrow ready for Friday after school 
Ooh good idea. I need to clean mine and check for holes first... Will do that tonight! And get thr fan out of it's box
I do hope we have a nice weekend. Ive got a new pool for my daughter and a water/sand pit table we need to put together 
I hate excessive heat, am dreading the higher temperatures and apart from work I will be staying indoors with curtains closed as I did last year. Luckily, although my work is mostly outdoors it is in air conditioned vehicles!
I’m really happy the heatwave has finally hit Scotland yesterday - i‘ve had to have my heating on in June! Which is insane but it was freezing up here! I make doggy ice lollies for my dogs to keep them cool, i dont really have an issue keeping cool!
I love the heat myself but feel for people who can't cope. If we had the heatwave like last year every year we would be geared up for it!!
Me too, a big fan of the warmer weather, as it’s never bothered me. But I understand how uncomfortable it is for some people, and how it makes some people really irritated (and smelly!)
I am doing everything I can to keep it cool for my son! Despite having the fan on in the bedroom over night, it was still 24 degrees!
put a tea towel in the freezer then at night put it over the fan, instant air con
I can't complain too much, it's 38 degrees in the shade at my sister's right now and she's pregnant, poor thing.
it was not that hot over the weekend, certainly not as hot as anticipated...but the sun was intense for those who were sitting out in it, as I noticed from those walking around with red raw skin
