The Weather.

Very untypical Irish weather - calm, warm and Sunny! Yay!! The high has been around 27 or 29 in Cork city I think, here on the coast perhaps 25?
This is Gorgeous weather for me!

25°C isn't too bad, especially if you're near the sea.

We are expecting 34/35°C and being inland, the pollution levels are high. It's already feeling muggy and hot.
 
35°C and pollution levels are high. I can tell as I often feel uneasy and find the air too be unbreathable.

I have decided not to go into town. I spent all morning trying to help and sort out a pidge rescue. Moreover, one of the girls from the group said that she would try and catch the sf'd pidge.

Too many people are suffering with heat stroke and I don't think it's worth the risk.
 
I swear I'm some sort of mutant...like in "The X-Men". I don't mind heat and humidity at all- and my ancestors came from drizzly or cold areas, such as Ireland, Britain, and Germany. I think my name will be "SWEATHOG", and my power will be to repel my opponents with my dripping stench. But as with Cyclops, my power is my curse: I can't control it. Cyclops has his visor; I have my shower and Speed-Stick.

Edited to add: not only that- but when I go into a building with air conditioning, I feel COLD. I want to wear a sweater, even though people will logically think I'm nuts. Or some sort of mutant.

We now end this post of weirdness to resume our normal discussion...

I cannot tolerate heat but I also get cold from AC and never go out without bringing a lightweight jacket/sweater.
 
I'm comfortable at 78-80 degrees inside...if I'm not working hard... sadly it's the same in winter but I won't turn the heat up because it's too expensive. I think that's why I'm ok with it being warm in the house in the summer.
 
well, we are about to get the weather that Europe has been having - starting Tuesday 35C feeling like 45C and that will last for a few days - so thankful for air conditioning and just hope the power grid holds - I am doing another big grocery shop today so that I don't have to go out all week

Our heat starts Thursday but still not as bad as you guys. In the 90's with real feel in the triple digits. 😓
