Why are they always wrong ? they've predicted one every week since June.Are these meteorologist fellas taking the mick or what ? Anne Robinson of Watchdog needs to be on this one.

Loads of clouds just keep going anti clockwise around the UK.
Get the odd few hours and days now n again.
Not much chance of a Heatwave in England with Greenland melting.
Well that's my theory.
Probably more reliable than Mr Fish n Co.

I'm certain weather forecast is much, much more inaccurate now than it ever was 10 years ago. It genuinely seems made now to encourage clicks on articles, its either "super dangerous high winds" or "tropical Caribbean style heatwave". Yet the heatwave may as well be a candle and the super dangerous high wind a whoopie cushion!

I blame it on the British weather.

Someone told me every saturday at 3PM in Halifax the entire town is temporarily absorbed into a glacier, with the epicentre of it at the Shay.

h try keighley and haworth. its one inch colder there than the shay i can tell you. when i come up to the vic in winter it feels tropical after 11 years in the worth valley. something i thought i,d never say.

best way to find what the weather is like is to step outside the front door. wonder if anyone has spotted those big arrows in the sky they show on the weather charts. never spotted one yet but keep on looking.

I blame referees.

at least i cannot be blamed for that anymore as i packed it in after being asked to fill in some bollocks on the net that would take me a hour to complete. after the first few questions i just gave up. all that for the sunday league and students on a wednesday afternoon. best practise rubbish. if i don,t know now i,d never know.

Remember in the 90’s when we we’re gonna burn baby burn because of the hole in the ozone layer..... we didn’t. The ozone sorted itself out.

pity that did not happen especially if the hole was directly above Stadium MK.

Ooh it didn't. I was in the Falklands in 2002 and the ozone hole was directly above us. We went in November for remeberance day at the height of the summer down South. Simon Weston said to me 'I'm not coming back here, ever time I do I get my face burnt'. True story.

Been a bad August so far.
Got more sunburnt in April.
No doubt the so called experts will be predicting one of those bullshit Indian Summers in Autumn which rarely comes off.

bad august for some but total relief for others. being one of the latter i cannot wait for summer to be over. hate heat plus a bit of hay fever does not help.

Welcome rain today.

Saves watering the garden....brill

I've saved about a tenner on lawn green products this year..

Just built a state of the art.....shed. So perfect for testing for leaks, sat there with my book in peace looking for the occasional damp patch, passed it’s trials with flying colours but.... er, more research will need to be done

How long before we see locusts and lizards munching on your green bean and carrot plots ,snowy ?

Any truth in it Hartlepool could be hotter than Algeria in 10 years time ?

Who wants a fucking heatwave anyway?

Unless you're heavily arthritic or are that old you can no longer regulate your temperature, the heat is fucking shite.

Sweaty as fuck, shit sleep, shit to work in.

The sun can fuck right off.

I don’t bother with the gardening crap, apart from my apple trees....... our lass likes that stuff... I just like building things.

Exactly, I’ve just rewired my bunker, installed new heating and the last thing I need is sunny weather. I just acquired an industrial paper shredder, hours of fun just tossing stuff in it, beats the telly anytime.

well you have done it now big time and we,ll all live to regret your actions. some TV company will read that and low and behold come winter there will be Celebrity Paper Shredding hosted by a box ticker you have never heard of.

True, it can be a misery to ginger's, freckled and those fragile souls who suffer in prickly heat..

Aw naw..... my neighbours off for the week and been out since 7.30 this morning cutting paving slabs...... it’s like a North African sand storm as Smooth fm drones away in the background at builders volume playing Phil Collins, Smokey Robinson, Mariah......et fucking cetera ..... went out for the day, come in at quarter to eight and Smooth fm is still playing music to put you into a deep coma, the dust is still flying and the grinder must have overheated by now.... but no, like a little Barney Rubble he carry’s on.
Probably a bloody JCB coming tomrrow

well i,m quite dark but aint fragile by a long way but having to cover up constantly in the sun is no fun i can tell you. i,ve scratched my arms red raw in the past with prickly heat.

Cloud all day when they forecast a sunny day only last night Lies,lies,lies!! fish and chips and a couple of tinnies on the beach has now been replaced by. 'we could always go and have a look at a new oven'

The ultimate nightmare, spending money on none essential items.

Drove over to Ribblehead viaduct today and also had a helicopter flying cement up to the top of the Buttertubs pass ... the further west you got the better it got... from seafret to glorious sunshine by Barnard Castle.

I'm in the lakes, it's too hot but it's another excuse to drink more beer.

That’s it, go on, rub it in...

Dull down here,not very warm.You'll need a parka jacket on if any of you are travelling to Brighton on your scooters.
