TUESDAY MID-DAY 40 CELCIUS IN THE SHADE



Captain Sensible

It's extremely hot today,with hardly any breeze.  There is an Orange Alert for high temperatures today.

I might put my thermometer in the full sun now and see what happens!

woe10

It´ll probably EXPLODE.  !!!!!!!!!!

Captain Sensible

One of my thermometers did that last year!

In today's Island Connections:
Initially predicted to depart as of last night, the mass of hot air from Africa will now remain until Wednesday. Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura can expect temperatures in the mid-high 30s again today and the authorities have reiterated advice to at risk individuals to avoid exposure by staying indoors if possible, with windows closed. Sunday saw Tenerife South airport record its highest May temperature for half a century, the Met Office reports. Schools throughout the Canaries had to contact scores of parents due to the heat problems suffered by children in stifling classrooms yesterday.

Captain Sensible

53 degrees Cecius in the direct sun at 12.45 - that's 125 degrees Fahrenheit!!!

Paddster

Incredible,i remember you posting the same info around this time last year woe/steve ?

Paddster

53 degrees ? Everybody must stop Steve ?

woe10

Can´t believe I´ve just seen people playing golf. Some without hats on. Are they mental. I hope they´ve got medics on hand.

Yep, it's certainly been hot alright! Actually too hot to sunbathe the past few days, never thought I'd ever hear myself say that! It's supposed to be 'cooling down' at the weekend, I say cooling down - back to the mid 20's.

Deso

North West England, tonight we shall have 'frost' [:0]

Average temp 1 or 2 degrees c

Man i hate this country sometimes,weather is pop......

woe10

Even Admin´s put a Yellow Weather Alert Banner at the top of the page. It´s gonna be a shock for people arriving tomorrow.

Paddster

Think they'll be happier than if it was wee weeing down woe.....

Billy Brown Bum

If you`d ever experienced 40 deg heat you`d know it might as well be PI**NG down..Far too hot to sit out, walk etc do the normal things etc..

  Sadly a couple of Brits have died in the heat on the other Islands doing just that..Keep safe peeps

Paddster

I prefer sun than rain = simple as pal.......

On one of the weather sources we use I've found there is a 'Weather warning alert" feed. I'm now putting that to appear automatically at the top of our sites when they have something to say -  and its wording is theirs - I have no control over the contents. The box will disappear when there is no alert - For us it will likely only appear when there is extreme heat, high winds or unusually high tides predicted. Unfortunately it only seems to alert for one day in advance.

woe10

That´s a good idea Admin.

Captain Sensible

Excellent information.

It's not quite so hot today - 36 in the shade at midday!

The weather has been very hot but life has gone on as normal.
Here in Caleta the golf hotel beaches have been busy. More people in the shade and sea than normal. Plenty of people still on the golf course just taken more water with them. Our complex has seen plenty of people in the pool and sat out as normal but more using the brollies.I remember days on end of rain in the Lake District back in the UK, love the Lakes just hate the weather. Enjoy the sunshine its getting cooler as we speak...

Paddster

U live over there ashworth ?
