Is anyone else worried about Monday and Tuesday? There's a weather warning in place here. It could get to 36-degrees here on Monday! I know it'll be hotter elsewhere but this is still a lot of heat to endure. I'm so scared. I don't want to be ill. Do you think it's likely I'll be ill in this heat? I'm going to try and keep hydrated and stay in, hopefully I'll be ok, but it's still scary. Don't want to end up ill and in hospital.
I think if we didn't have the media we would just think "crikey it's hot" and do what we need to do by our instincts. However the nhs is under huge pressure already and people might want to go bonkers open water swimming etc and we are not used to these temperatures in this county. So that's probably why we are being warned. And also to get us used to these type of alerts because they will probably get more frequent.
they do go bonkers already, cooking their brains on the beach all day
Yeah they flock to the beaches when it gets hot. I live by the motorway and every hot day they just fill up with traffic where people head for the coast.
