    I wouldn't call today hot. It was normal and what summers were like 6-7 years ago. It's just we have not had a proper summer weather since 2007.

    Milk would've been a bad choice, had you chosen it.

    It's 22:45 right now and it's 18 C so it looks like it's going to be a right warm one to sleep in tonight, sweat rolling off me here, not used to this humidity.

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears... in rain. Time to die.

    It's hot. Damn hot! Real hot! Hottest things is my shorts. I could cook things in it. A little crotch pot cooking.
    Well, can you tell me what it feels like.
    Fool, it's hot! I told you again! Were you born on the sun? It's damn hot! I saw - It's so damn hot, I saw little guys, their orange robes burst into flames. It's that hot! Do you know what I'm talking about.
    What do you think it's going to be like tonight?
    It's gonna be hot and wet! That's nice if you're with a lady, but it ain't no good if you're in the jungle.

    I opened my tub of coconut oil and it was totally liquified. Now it just looks like a tub of water. Heard my neighbour singing in the shower earlier, haven't heard him do that before, he must've gotten lucky this evening, *shudders at thought of him*. Just saw a guy piddling through a fence, while being stalked by his cat:D

    The summer of 1995, now that was hot. I remember the skin peeling off my back in chunks, couldn't sleep for a week.

    I hate the heat, it's oppressive during the day and uncomfortable at night. My house is like a furnace and it's worse upstairs. My skin feels itchy and my hair looks awful from the humidity. It's all fun and games in the sun now folks but give it a couple of days of restless nights and people will be ripping shreds off each other out of sheer cranky exhaustion.

    It must have got close to 30 degrees today, A few days in 05 and 06 were the same. 1995 is famous on these shores because of the prolonged run of hot weather.

    We've had a real bad run of summers recently but today has to be above average for any typical Irish Summer day.

    I didn't feel like a pint of Harp so it couldn't have been that hot.

    .

    Not a hope of 30 where I was today. A nice strong sea breeze kept everything in the low 20s in real feel terms. Still pasty white with not a drop of sun screen on me.

    It was so hot today, half the population of Ireland came onto boards and made threads about the weather.

    I went for a piss once that summer and it came out like half-set jelly.

    No they weren't.

    We've had a terrible string of summers but weather like this still wasn't all that common. We hit the high 20s today. You might get a few days of that an average Irish summers, maybe, but usually low 20s is about the norm, with many high teens days. 30 degrees is a once in a decade kind of occurence (Met Eireann's own words) There's a gulf between this kind of weather and the weather of the last six summers.

    The gulf is where a normal Irish summer usually lies.

    Where I was inland in Tipperary I think it got close if not over, that said I say where you were by the coast was more comfortable. Still it's nice to get an oul blast of heat now and then without having to step on a plane.

    It was in the high twenties where I was today, was 29.5 at one point. The humidity was pretty high as well according to google which would explain why it felt much hotter, today was the hottest day in recent memory for me anyway, real dead heat, I even got burnt which hasn't happened since I was a child.
