*in 2000 YEARS

I know it's only a few days until November so by all official records it's not summer any more, but by "last summer" do you mean 2023, or the summer of 2024 that STILL HASN'T BLOODY WELL ENDED YET!?!!

We equalled the high temperature record again today

It takes awhile to compile such things, so, yeah, 2023. 2024 will be the hottest year in 2001 years I suppose.

There's a possibility of some severe weather between 6pm and midnight today.
