So I have a question for the floor. What you all doing to keep cool with this heatwave. (I’m keeping cool with my fan in my house and keeping cool with my Ac during my nightshift)

Manchester (she/her)

Windows and curtains closed during the day, open at night

Drinking lots of water (in the fridge/freezer), cutting back on caffeine, no alcohol.

Minimising physical activity

Staying indoors. If going outdoors, seeking shade (plus sunscreen, hat, and long sleeves and trousers)

No hot food

Computers and television off

Fan

Sleeping under a flat sheet, no duvet

Wet flannel on the back of my neck is a move I haven't used yet, but I will.

I’ve not tried the flannel yet. Sounds a good idea.

It's fine at home but do you have A/C in work.

I'm not too bad, A/C in most areas but driving to and from work is a nightmare, putting towels on steering wheel so I can touch it when driving.

Never seen so many people in the sea today, still cold.

I remember burning my fingers to the point of welts on the seatbelt buckle when I was a kid

Leeds (Home) / Sheffield (Work)

Have the fan on at night pointing towards me. I have a spray bottle (like the ones you buy for cleaning) filled with water. Every so often a few sprays in the direction of the fan and I get a cool misty breeze blown back. The air feels cooler then

Wring out a soaking cold wet towel and use it at night when it gets too hot.

Tempted to but a standing AC unit but how often will I actually use it in the UK :/
