135.6 ? Nay, lad - up the Congo, we'd have been digging out the wooly hats and mittens if it had got that chilly.
Ah yes..

So much for me complaining about yesterday's 34.9°, today hit 35.9°C (96.6F) and the forecast says worse is to come.
Practically begging for rain now. x_x

Everybody stay safe, hydrated and wear proper attire. Also keep your pets under wraps.

We have had cloudy cover today, so cooler, and a little rain.

Saved myself a holiday in southern Europe. It's been 25 to 30°C for weeks now with no rain in sight. Just today the thermometer outside of the office indicated 36°C and it's supposed to get even hotter in the coming weeks.

And some rather unexpected things happening as a result of the heat.
Apparently, the heat has rendered Hannover Airport (EDDV) inop, due to works on the Southern runway and heat damage to the Northern one.
