Here in the UK, specifically England, we've had abnormally high temperatures brought in from across the Sahara in North Africa via France that even here in the usually temperate West Midlands region have gone to around 34 degrees Celsius and only a little below 20 degrees overnight.
Those of course are the outdoor temperatures, what happens indoors matters just as much and being in a mainly brick built building that heat is effectively trapped in it which is good for winters but not very helpful with this.
The other aspect to all this is we've had lots of thunder and lightning such as that shown in that picture of Stoke on Trent, a part of this, the North Staffordshire conurbation which was very dramatic on Tuesday night lasting from around 10pm through 3 am.
Apparently we were the epicentre of the it and with it came severe rain that caused issues on the Crewe-Derby line at Uttoxeter together with cross country services around Stafford and Rugeley in the south.
After all that typing, I'll take a rest!
