39C



That's about 102F and record breaking temperatures. Ummm this is England and not the continent that folk pay a lots of dosh to take a holiday there, hehehe we are getting for FREE. I love free stuff but this is a little to much LOL.


So if London is 39C we will be about 1 degree cooler, phew that makes me feel a whole lot better about our drive 40 minute drive oneway to the hospital today LOL.

Some of the roads are melting and the temperatures inside the tube trains are expeted to reach 117F! Does the USA have this problem with roads melting? I don't recall hearing that in Phoenix.

I don't recall ever seeing the roads melt around Phoenix. Most of our highways are rubberized now which is really nice because it makes for quieter driving. They use recycled tires that have been crushed up and heated so it resembles tar and they roll it out on the highway. Once it hardens it makes for a very smooth ride and much less noise.

They do break down in the heat, though...that's one of the reasons they're resurfacing one highway or another all the time. Gosh, I hope it cools down in England...You just don't think of England being 102.
