I feel like I’m actually boiling – it’s not even a nice “oh it’s summer!” heat. Like, if this is how it’s going to go over the next couple of years, we’re totally fucked.

I’m going to go up and investigate

dont you dare be one of those guys who hangs a hammock up in alex park. that sort of nonsense is exclusively for the circus skills twats who also tie a tightrope between two trees and think poi is acceptable

trying to keep myself and misty cool, shes scared of water though :roll_eyes:

Seems like there is insulation in the floor, not sure where the black stuff up there is, didn’t seem too hot up there

Managers brought in lots of ice cream

Personal air cooler on my desk doimg the job nicely. So far not so bad!

It’s 33 here but I’m in the office and there’s aircon, and it has been 30-33 most days for a while.

It’s 36 back home apparently so… pretty glad to be here for once.

I think you’d want to ask @ma0sm and @Mr.Lady too

oh yeah @shrewbie is in Belgium isn’t he? @ma0sm is in the Netherlands

don’t know who @Mr.Lady is, sorry

Guys guys guys I just went outside.

Not so quick!

The Dutch Met Office has just announced that that this is not a valid report, and it is currently investigating if there has been equipment malfunction. The record for today still stands at 39.4 in Gilze-Rijen.

well that’s the last time I trust the BBC

Standing in the rain, lush

That has now been confirmed: broken thermometer.

However, the new all-time record for the Netherlands has been set in Gilze-Rijen at 2:54 PM local time, a balmy 40.4 C.
