Obviously we’re experiencing a late in the year heatwave. There seems to be a big split in the UK with people either thinking “this is amazing” or “this is hell”. Personally, I can’t stand it. Anything up to about 25° (as peak temperature in the day) I consider pleasant and enjoyable. But this is just so debilitating. It got me interested to know how hot is too hot for most people in the UK. I know us Brits love going to hot destinations on holidays but here we have quite high humidity so heat feels very different. What temperature do you think is the highest before it gets uncomfortable and unbearable?
