    Summer is here and while its clearly good news for most of us its not always plain sailing, I just went out to put the mower away and realised it was as warm outside as in. So that'll be an uncomfortable night then....:( Say what you like about cold nights - its a lot easier to stay warm then it is to cool off while trying to get 7 hours when humidly warm.

    ahhhhhhhh always complaining about the weather.
    Buy a fan or something, I dunno.

    I think if people in Ireland were banned from complaining or talking about the weather they'd implode.

    Close all the windows and leave the fridge door open.

    I wonder do they complain as much about the heat and cold in countries with seasons.

    I slept in a tent last night and it was like a sauna! Took out my mirror this morning and it actually fogged up. Dont know how I got any sleep!

    Yes, they do. Spaniards are notorious for it and justifiably so.

    Czechs aren't so bad, though, from what I remember.

    EDIT: Btw, was walking home from work at half ten in the south of Spain and it was 28.

    Can you set the oven to cold?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 467 ✭✭YumDeiseMum


    No complaints from me. We've had way too long a winter - about 4 years??
    Windows open and the dog in just to make sure no-one tries to take advantage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,731 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    Ah that's grand weather out there. Fine bit of sunshine that we hardly ever get combined with that heat :)

    Too hot? You wouldn't stand outside where I am for long with no clothes on for long I can tell you.

    I'm standing out naked on my balcony right now having a smoke! :D








    hope the neighbours down underneath don't come out for a smoke and look up, the last crowd moved out a few days later after they thought it was an eclipse they were eyeballing! :pac:

    Lived in Arizona for 2 years, listened constantly how they would love to have weather like we have here. The term "perfect" was used many a time by the locals when i described our weather. Granted there is only 2 seasons there, Summer and cool Summer

    I prefer winter


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,790 ✭✭✭confuseddotcom


    Detest heat. This weather is driving me mental / demented / bonkers / loo-la / crazy / bananas. I absolutely hate it. Can't stand it. I want rain and wind and would even take snow instead of this heat. I can't breathe.

    Although I would agree that sunny weather as such can lift one's spirits and bring about a good mood, I'd prefer being in a bad mood to not being able to breathe right.

    It'd nearly drive me to drink and one is supposed to enjoy drinking in this weather. :rolleyes:

    Bleedin ten degrees out you whingers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    We humans are programmed to adjust and adapt to all weathers and with recent late springs and autumns becoming early inductions to winter , I for one welcome our long overdue summer .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,653 ✭✭✭Voodoomelon


    Was out for a run there half an hour ago and the sweat was rolling off me within 5 minutes, no need for a jacket anymore methinks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1

    Me too. I think I have the opposite of seasonal affective disorder.

    Living near a coastal town or city for the sea breeze during hot spells is obviously better than living inland but that goes without saying .

    It's not even hot, just pleasantly mild. Fans are quite cheap too you know.

    Stand outside in Dubai or some other Arabian gulf country for 10 minutes in July and tell me Ireland was hot. It's bleedin 45 - 50° C there! This is nothing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual


    Hot ?
    Were you born on the Sun ?



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493

    Indeed ...

    We once experienced a freak heat storm in the Canary Islands which blew in from north Africa and it was so hot and humid , we were sucking in nothing but hot air and it made me realise the difference between Hot in Africa/Arabia and northern Europe .
