    Really warm and humid today which is disappointing. This wretched summer just won't leave us alone will it. I am getting tired of it now!

    Hated it! Far too hot for my liking except for that more unsettled period we had in June. Never-ending misery, but at least it's September now and the risk of seriois heat is rapidly diminishing.

    I usially look forward to seeing snow and cold in winter but this year, with circumstances being what they are re energy prices I think it's in almost all our interests if it's a mild one this time.

    I remember not long ago people would say "40 celsius would never be recorded in the UK", with their rationale being the UK is too small a landmass and surrounded by water ergo we would never get the required daytime heating even in v hot airmasses. Well recent events have proven them wrong I'd say. We need to accept in a warming world and changing climate anything can happen, including previously unthinkable extreme events.

    Raining here too which is good to see. I must have a chuckle at the current Met Office forecast summary for my area though, which is "A cloudy start with a few spots of light rain and drizzle at first...". It's currently throwing it down out there and has been for a while now.

    More like the summer that has long outstayed its welcome... Cloudy but warmish where I am with little wind (again). There's supposed to be some rain later but judging by recent form I'm not going to get my hopes up.
  7. Stewart M
    Agree 100%! Now, if only the weather would get the message and cool down a little more.

    Hey welcome aboard! The "MAD" thread is the Model Output Discussion thread, but is often labelled the MAD thread due to the sometimes rather hyperbolic and over-enthusiastic discussion that take place, especially in summer when hot weather seems possible (and in winter when cold weather seems possible).

    Oh please not another heatwave this summer! Rumours are flying around that a hot spell could happen during the BH weekend, which if it does happen is the last thing many of us need. Pray for rain is all I can say!

    I'm looking forward to enjoying some rain, and by enjoying it I mean getting out there in my wellies and raincoat, with an umbrella to hand, sitting in the shelter sipping hot drinks. After all, that's how sun-worshipers "enjoy" hot sunshine isn't it, slathered in sunscreen, sunhat and sunglasses on, sitting in the shade during the hottest part of the day.

    Couldn't give a stuff about sunshine, it's rain I'm looking for, and for the heat to stay away. The last couple of days have been a big relief and personally I hope we continue into autumn in the same vein, with some much-needed rain thrown in too.
  12. Stewart M
    You and me both! There's nothing better than a nice drizzly day with overcast skies and a fresh breeze. I've had enough "warm sunshine" to last me a lifetime.
  13. Stewart M
    Looks like, once we get into next week the warmth will be back and could be maintained for much of the rest of the month. However by the time we get to September itself temps may moderate somewhat, at least according to the GFS 12z run.. Personally I'e had enough of summer but it looks like it's not done with us yet.

    Lovely cool, fresh, breezy and cloudy day today. I wonder how long it'll last though.
  15. Stewart M
    It's actually raining here at the moment! Only light spits and spots but it's so nice to feel some rain on my face for once. I'll stay out in it as long as I can (or until it stops altogether!).
  16. Stewart M
    Still awake at twenty to 4 in the morning. Yayy. This night seems even more uncomfortable than last night. Maybe I'll buy a tent and sleep in the garden next heatwave.
  17. Stewart M
    Really seeing the change in both daylength and sun angle at noon now. The daylight has a slightly more, dare I say autumnal look to it as we pass into mid-afternoons too, even though the weather is still in summer mode.
  18. Stewart M
    25 celsius in my neck of the woods tomorrow. Not "cool" but much more tolerable at least.
  19. Stewart M
    You're posting in a heat-haters' thread telling people to enjoy it. I thought being here for so long you'd masterr the subtle art of reading thread titles.
  20. Stewart M
    Yes let us all put considerations of health, comfort and liveability (and sleep!) and just enjoy the heat! Silly me, that's where I've been going wrong all this time! d'oh! And as for my elderly parents who have really been struggling in this current spell, well if they'd only just enjoy it, well there you go eh? Seriously, why don't you realise we don't all like heat and will never "enjoy it"?
  21. Stewart M
    Wow this spell has been draining! In many ways it's worse than the July heatwave. I don't know why but it's seemed even hotter to me than the extreme heat of last month. Probably due to the protracted nature of this heatwave, maybe higher humidity, or maybe it's just because my already limited tolerance of heat is now at breaking point. Roll on next week!
  22. Stewart M
    Feeling really uncomfortable today and it's going to stay muggy for the next couple of days. I wish that fresher weather due later this week would hurry up.
  23. Stewart M
    They could use more neutral language, such as "it will be a hot and sunnu day today". Also, do they ever use ohrases like "plenty of rain on offer" or "plenty of snow for all"? No, exactly.
  24. Stewart M
    The GFS is showing what could look like a lengthy hot spell as we get further into August. From around the 9th or so temps could widely be in the high 20s or even low 30s. Not as intense as the recent heatwave but much longer lasting. I hope it doesn't come off!
  25. Stewart M
    It's not just the press. The Met Office also have a habit of presenting warm weather as good by default; "plenty of warm sunshine for all", "more warm sunshine" and "plenty of warm sunshine on offer" are all examples of forecast summaries on the MetO website in recent summers.
