Fuck the BBC. Not a single mention of climate change in the entire article.
When do we redefine the threshold for heatwave?
This is normal.... Right?
Yeah, we get record temperatures every year, its nothing new.
As to normality I will not remark - but I know you will recall this mild weather fondly.
Of course, its the coolest summer the UK is going to have in years!
Next year people can say "still not as dry as ~~1976~~ 2026"

General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
