lmao are english people ok? it is 95 degrees outside where I am as we speak and i dont consider this unusual in the least
Also 95 here, but after visiting the UK during one of their “heat waves” I’d rather be here in Florida at 95 than the UK at 80.
Here we’ve built our society around air conditioning, I move from climate controlled space to climate controlled space spending as little time out in the 95 degrees as possible. For the short time it’s nice outside, our houses are largely built to encourage a cross-breeze from one end to the other.
In the UK even though it wasn’t as hot outside there was no relief. Nowhere had AC. Not the houses, not the businesses, not the busses or trains or stations. All the buildings were made to keep air and heat in, so everywhere was 90 degrees inside. They barely even had ice for drinks most places.
And to add on top of that, people there aren’t acclimated to the heat. I keep it at 78 degrees inside my apartment, but when I first moved here I would’ve been dying at 78 indoors.
You’re giving British people way too much credit. Plenty of places like NYC you do not move between climate controlled spaces all of the time and the vast majority do not do so in a climate controlled vehicle, PLUS NYC can be just as humid as the UK
Oh trust me I have no desire to give credit to the English. I just know I was there when it was 80 and it made me miss my 95 degree Florida days
