It just made it ridiculously humid with the cloud cover Trev. Would have been better if it had been sunny.

Got no idea how hot it got here I just know that it wasn't pleasant to work in

Dry and still dark here this morning

Cloudy and humid this morning.

No, you blokes are not used to this, and it will knock the stuffing out of you. Your pigeons aren't used to it either, but when they get up and flying, the air is cooler higher up. In the hot summers we used to get here 10 or 15 years ago, I would wait until it got down to 37c (100F) before I let the pigeons out. They would still fly like lunatics We haven't had that sort of summer heat for years and years.
It is relative though, isn't it? We are forecast a 25 degree day next week, and we are all smiles!

That's the thing. The climate may be changing, but it isn't getting worse.
We appear to be going through a cooler period, and you seem to be going through a warmer period. That's how the planet works.
But there weren't people making trillions of dollars out of it before.

Full cloud and warm here
