Dear all,
Unfortunately, high temperatures are expected to return today with a forecast high of 26 degrees and probably still no rain. But we have better news for the weekend with heavy rain promised for Saturday, so you are likely to get a chance to use your umbrellas and other London type gear.

Most Wikimanians will be spending most of the day indoors, except of course for smokers. The organisers of the cricket match have found a covered venue for Saturday night's match, so neither rain nor lightning should be a problem. https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/England_vs_Rest_of_the_World_Rapid_...

From South of France point of view, temperature are cold (we are used to
36+ °C). I bet from Islandic point of view it's just high temperature record ...
So I guess it's just a question of point of view.

I guess most notable here is that the Tube is an absolute nightmare when it’s hot.

If you believe the press, then the Boris buses are even worse in the heat than the tube. I have no personal experience.

No risk of that. As we know, "Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it." (pseudo Mark Twain)

Not only is our weather different, but also our sense of humour.
Especially regarding the weather.

Yes, but recent forecast have been wrong suggesting that UK weather is a unstable mode.
Stability is associated with the "Azores High".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azores_High
"When it moves north towards the Iberian Peninsula it causes ridging to develop for short periods across northern France, Benelux, Germany and southeastern United Kingdom. This brings hot and dry weather to these areas normally affected by prevailing westerlies. The Azores High (as it is known in Europe) ...."
Are we in an Azores High situation now?
