Well, I'm not in england but might aswell post about the weather here in Malta 
It's not really that hard to describe, sunny, not a single cloud and as hot as it can get (for now) its about 32 degrees celcius. It's like walking into an oven when you go outside and today I got sunburnt after spending 4 hours at the beach.

Oh, it's brilliant. I sweat like a pig after performing even the simplest task, all the windows are open, but it's still too hot, the water out of the tap is warm, so I have to keep it in the fridge if I want it to cool me down, where I live, there's no air con, so temps have jumped up 10 degrees. To make matters worse for me, I've effectively got a 200W heater sat next to me, working 24/7, just adding to the problem (oh the joys of proper water cooling :banghead, so now my room is 2-3 degrees hotter than the rest of the house, which was already a furnace to begin with, so yes, the weather is lovely 
<EDIT>
You'd think after having grown up in Bulgaria, I'd be pretty used to temperatures in excess of 30 or 40*C, but the oceanic climate is so damp that 28 feels like 45. And it keeps getting hotter every year, so I don't see how people can deny global warming with a straight face

I'm not sure how hot my room is, but my coolant temperature hasn't dropped below 39 in a week, it normally stays close to ambient (when idling anyway), so I'd imagine it's anywhere between 30 and 35. Weather report says currently 22 in Sheffield, but rises to 29 at mid day, the blinds on my windows could do with some work though, if I can find any tin foil in the kitchen, I'll line them with it, so at the very least the room only keeps within a few degrees of outside air temp, having the sun shining bright through that window only makes things worse.
I actually spent 2 hours last night (trying to fall asleep lol) coming up with a basic design of a relatively inexpensive CO2 capsule based mini cooler to keep the worst heat out of the room But when I'm about to buy a few rolls of tin foil to line the windows, things are definitely getting desperate:flamed:

lol it is 33'C t 21:20 takes the mic ... and with the tin foil put it on the out side of the glass otherwise it will create a hyper focus zone and just get hotter

Living on the third floor, I have no way of doing that
Plus, that window is open 24/7, so all the heat accumulating in the glass will happily convect outside the room. I'm fully aware that it will only reflect away the radiation that comes in through the window, but as I said earlier - I'm getting desperate here -_-
On top of everything, I have a CFD project to run (which rapes the CPU on a good day) AND stuff to move from downstairs, so I think I best start stocking up CO2 capsules and other supplies, if this is projected to potentially run into Sept, I'd be screwed without a portable cooling unit :sad:
