As an Australian living in the driest state (South Australia) in the driest continent where we regard anything less than 40 degrees as gloves and beanies weather, I can report that we (including the kangaroos) haven't all incinerated and that we have "learned to live with" hot weather (just as we are ever so gradually learning to live with Covid, although the rest of the world seems to have moved on in that regard)
In our village someone put out the 'Flood' sign on the road in readiness for the thuderstorms, but the road has cussedly remained persistently dry. They might be rewarded with a bit of water running down the road when winter approaches.
I like your tinfoil hat-- I will have to steal some of the foil off the solar oven my children constructed, since there appears to be some kind of aluminum shortage.
P.S. I do have the power to control the weather with my foil, right? Or does it also involve a special dance, prayer, witchcraft (my specialty), the kind of toilet that requires several flushes to do the trick, or setting my thermostat to emulate a sauna in summer and an igloo in winter?
In one of my fb groups a lady was say it had only been really hot for a couple of days and normal temps were expected in a couple of days. She did say the airport tarmacs melted. Are they made differently in England. Do Tarmacs in Hot areas of US melt when it gets around 100F or so?
At those temps, the asphalt can become too soft for a plane to land on without damaging the runway. It's a normal and well known phenomenon in the southwest US in the summer :)
You Sir are on fire 🔥
I see what you did there ;)
Wickedly funny, again, Mr. Rigger.

Hilarious. So much redder!!
At least our German weatherwomen have blue clothes instead of blue hair.
Bwa-ha-ha! Even my wife laughed when I read it to her just now, and she's a tough audience.
"I don’t have a garden any more - everything that once was growing is now glowing."
You have the beginnings of a tune right there!
Nothing like a good does of sarcasm to lighten my day!😊😂😉
Turning hysteria into hilarity. 🫡
Very funny.

Marvelous

I wondered. We’ve had temps in the 100s recently. Blacktop driveways seem a little soft.
