Warm Enough ?

[Agrippa]

Summer, warm weather, gawd who have expected that...............?

[Chetcombe]

Hot weather during Wimbledon, well there's a rarity.!

I'm in Washington DC this week and it's hot in t'colonies. 90 degrees warm in old money (sorry we don't do centigrade over here at all) and 90% humidity,which is an unpleasant but fairly typical summer combination

old money (sorry we don't do centigrade over here at all)

Ha ! nolonger do we do centigrade,
don'y'know they furrigners changed it to Celsius ( degrees Celsius °C ) a wee while back,
then they took it upon themselves to adopt Kelvin as the SI unit of temperature,
(mark you, not degrees Kelvin, no little circle needed, just Kelvin, symbol a plain K ! )
harumpf.
Système International d'Unités, I think they call themselves, somewhere in Paris or, well over there somewhere.

Well you mentioned the subject ! Do try to keep up in the colonies over there   

Me, at home in the garden, in SW England,  I know it will be beginning to get comfortable at anywhere over 70F should I be so lucky, it wont last

Summer = a couple of hot days and a thunderstorm , usually.

actually, you made me chuckle on two fronts, at home and in the lab.

Cos I was brung up in the dark days when dinosaurs roamed the wild,
I was (am) happy at home in F, and I know when it is safe to go out without my longjons in summer if it is in F,
but at work it didnt make sense if it wasnt in C or K
that's why I ended up a schizophrenic and dyslexicule

Basinga I can top you on that one 62.8C in full kit but that's a different story.

Apart from those who sadly suffer more than most in the heat (that doesn't mean been sweaty or more than usual in some cases  )

Embrace it come the next bank holiday weekend it will  been glorious all through the traffic jams until you arrive at you weekend get away then it will  it down!!

Nowt wrong with kelvin, that's a proper British measurement  (and before anyone jumps in with "he was Scottish not British", he was actually born in Belfast  )

Well, Summer was nice while it lasted. Weather forecast says thunderstorms overnight at my lovely hometown, followed by torrential rain tomorrow morning. Aaah, the British weather

[MalcolmInN]

Scottish not British

Not long to go now till that will become a common phrase !
That will cause the Americans some problems, they have enough trouble distinguishing the English from British !!

he was actually born in Belfast 

I never knew that, quite an educational forum this place
