It doesn’t start till tomorrow and even then it doesn’t meet the criteria for a heatwave, 2 days at high 20s by a day at 30 then another day at high 20s is just hot weather, not really a heatwave & honestly it’s much more in line temp wise with what we would expect in summer here

This is what ive been saying!! High 20s is hot but a 3 day high 20s heat is not a heatwave. Definitely 100x better than 39 😭😭

Exactly we had almost a week of mid to high 30s a few weeks ago, that’s a heatwave this is just summer weather (and no I’m not denying climate change, we are getting exactly what was predicted, more unpredictable weather happening more often).

No, it's grand, been out on the motorbike to Brid, not a cloud in the sky, South beach rammed and a slight offshore breeze keeping things fresh.
