Brits Are Not Coping Well With This Heatwave

Brb, just buying 10 fans.

Whether it’s hot, cold or somewhere in between, us Brits love to complain about the weather.

And with temperatures reaching 32°C in some parts of the UK this weekend, the #hottestdayoftheyear gave us plenty to discuss.

It's reached 31.9 °C at Hampton Water Works making it the #hottestdayoftheyear so far and temperatures are still rising in many places! pic.twitter.com/yN4Ny41XKU
