    Bcos its now obvious that Ireland is set to miss out on all the fun and games regarding heat (the high teens, gas!) im focusing on the uk heatwave. :rolleyes: the uk is now bracing itself for some serious heat, by midweek temperatures are set to reach 33 degrees, with a heatwave alert issued/ emergency situation (level 4). could the all time record of 38 in kent be matched or beaten?

    No it will be cooler and more unsettled here, the atlantic is spitting cloud / rain muck at us, the exceptionally hot continental air mass is not filtering through here, so we are getting more banal uneventful weather. in fact it will be pissing rain here tomorrow on the west coast and wednesday, enjoy the heatwave:mad:

    Already starting to show up on radar.

    anyway, I'm not too bothered with heat. once you get bast 28,29 degrees is starts to get really uncomfortable.
