It’s so, so hot in the UK

It’s so, so hot here in Sheffield. We have been suffering this heatwave for sometime now. The temperatures are soaring and today, it is just unbearable. I haven’t felt this dehydrated even in the KL sun!

This will give you some sense of perspective of the dry heat we are suffering at the moment - the roads in the UK are melting under this burning sun!

So what do you do to overcome this hot summer day? Take in lots of liquid, bath regularly, be in your shorts, eat loads of ice cream and just chill out. But believe me, nothing works. It is just too hot. Today, Sheffield was boiling at 29 degree C.

For the Brits, the rising degree means they need not go overseas looking for sun during this summer. In fact, I have a bunch of girls next door enjoying their sun baths on daily basis. I just hope they don’t get over-burned, or more dangerously, they don’t get killed by the heat.

And if you thought today is bad, forecasters are predicting an even hotter day tomorrow. The BBC reported:

"BBC forecasters in Yorkshire said the county reached its highest July temperature ever with 32C (90F) at Linton-on-Ouse, while forecasters in the West of England said the region could have its hottest July day for more than 100 years on Wednesday."

How I wish I was back home, enjoying a cool beach holiday in one of the islands.
