Rey_Piste Posted May 27, 2017 Posted May 27, 2017 By all accounts there was a thunder storm last night here, but I slept right through it. it is definitely less humid than it was last night, it's still going to hit about 22 degrees later. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 27, 2017 Paid Members Posted May 27, 2017 We've just had thunderstorms. Doesn't stop it from being warm though, we tend to get this after we have a couple of days of heat for the first time in a while. Quote
Paid Members Slapnut Posted May 27, 2017 Paid Members Posted May 27, 2017 We had one of the worst thunderstorms I've ever witnessed at about 4am. Flashes of lightning every 5 seconds or so for a good 20-25 minutes. Now it's miserable as fuck outside. I miss the sunburn weather. Quote

Yeah I have my PA1 and PA6, you can get away with shorts under the paper suit and don't bother wearing the nitrile gauntlets if it's too fucking hot. You don't really need to wear wellies when you do it either, to be honest I don't wear the gear most of the time, it's only on certain sites where they are shit hot on health and safety. Apparently there was a massive thunderstorm here last night. I woke up to people who had posted vids on facebook of the storm, I slept through the entire thing. Apparently there was over 2,000 thunder strikes last night. Edited May 27, 2017 by Rey_Piste Quote

That Storm early hours of Saturday morning was frankly amazing. It was lighting up the whole of Caerphilly mountain. Well worth being woken up by the cat for.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 28, 2017 Paid Members Posted May 28, 2017 It's cool, cloudy and drizzly this morning. Bliss. Quote
Rey_Piste Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 I'm loving the sun, but I am sweating like a nonce in a nursery. I have had to take 2 showers already today. Quote
MrK Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 How does anyone sleep in this? Sweat is pissing off me in bed. Doesn't help that the wife is like a hot water bottle. Quote
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted June 18, 2017 Paid Members Posted June 18, 2017 I've got two fans on in my bedroom and they're barely helping. Going to be even hotter tomorrow. I can't believe I moved into a brand new building and they didn't bother to install air conditioning. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted June 19, 2017 Paid Members Posted June 19, 2017 I haven't been down on this weather at all, and I still won't, but the air conditioning in the office not fucking working is taking the right piss. No breeze coming through the window either, so I am melting away like the witch in Oz. Quote
Paid Members Nick James Posted June 19, 2017 Paid Members Posted June 19, 2017 Its been 32 degrees in our office today. Doesn't help that the coolers in the server room have broken and the hot air is being pushed out in to the office. Dreading trying to get to sleep tonight in this heat. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted June 19, 2017 Members Posted June 19, 2017 Playing football in this heat in an hour, that'll be fun!!! Yep, air con is gone in our office too. We have fans from I think 1991, and they stink and I'm sitting there soaking wet. Quote
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted June 19, 2017 Author Paid Members Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) According to the local paper we are experiencing MONDAY MELTDOWN. Sadly no alliterative action for tomorrow as of yet. Yeah, this is plainly total bollocks. I won't have the Chest's of this world try and force heat-based happiness unto me while I'm having to change boxers with this level of startling frequency. Edited June 19, 2017 by Gus Mears Quote
