UK airport suspends flights amid reports of 'melted' runway

Stay cool our UK brothers! 🧊🧊🧊

 

• One of the UK's largest airports on Monday suspended flights amid reports of "melted" runways.
• The country is not at all prepared to handle such heat — most homes, schools and small businesses in Britain do not have air-conditioning.
  London's Kew Gardens hit 37.5C by 3pm on Monday (midnight AEST) and Wales provisionally recorded its highest-ever temperature, the Met Office said, 35.3C at Gogerddan on the west coast.

👍🏼 32C in my home office today. Started cooling down around 7pm. It's a good few degrees cooler downstairs. Wish me luck sleeping tonight! On the plus side might actually catch 2424 🤣

We are so not geared up for hot nor cold! 

I've even skipped the gym lol

Only a pint will help. Good luck my brethren 🌞

My neck of the woods in Idaho has been regularly 38-39.5°C for a little over a week. Today it felt cool at 32.2°, but is going back up tomorrow. Thank the lord for AC! It was way to warm to enjoy a smoke this weekend.

As a cycling fan did anyone watch yesterday’s stage of the TdF? For those that are not fans the athletes complained of an inhumane race in inhumane conditions.
