Bloody hell ,

Where was/is this ?

today @ around 2pm in Phuket

It's not 41 in the shade which is how you should measure temperature. Was that in your car? It's 33.5 in my kitchen. But we are creeping towards the hot season

Its the outside temperature according to the gauge in the car of course ,

Inside my car it was 20c so a little cooler than your kitchen , jees

36c on my old fashioned thermometer hanging in the shade of the balcony right now.

37C under shade at the rear of our house which is now exposed to direct sunlight.

The air sitting over the asphalt is always hotter than in other places. No shade, heat from the engines and exhaust fumes. Plus it's usually surrounded by concrete. I'm sure it can raise the temperature about 5 degrees.

Plus the air inside bigger urban areas can be 2-3 degrees warmer than in rural areas.

i usualy get 44-46 mid day in the car, normal

46c on the car gauge , normal ???

36c sure but 46c you must travel different parts of Phuket than myself everyday

39 in the moist spot under my arms. Gets hotter as you go lower too.

Come on guys this is not really hot, left Perth a couple of weeks ago

had 8 days in a row over 40 degrees and that was in the shade

Don't get this, what is the point in repeating my post without comment

Meant to add this ,

A small village in middle UK same time today , so yup some people do think its bloody hot

A vulgar post also some empty posts removed

34 on the stoop in the shade at 4pm. I was surprised at how cool the air was this morning around 6ish, hopefully more of that early tomorrow.

I'm up for an ice cold Red Horse, of course. Wonder what he hi-so folk are drinking to stay cool?

i think the difference with perth and australia overall is that most people have central aircon

Perth heat is so dry you can feel the moisture being sucked out of your skin.

Do you only drink shorts these days!!

Pretty much........though, a chilled cider in the afternoon goes down well.

i'm feeling it this year more than usual for some reason. i'm off to CA USA soon, i can't stand another hot season here

Leaving at the end of March.

April here is just miserable.

Not that bad, nothing a swim wont cure.
