Supposedly to hit 30+ here over the next 2 days. Crazy totally crazy.
Just read that officially the highest ever recorded temp in Norn Iron was yesterday, next door to you Davy - 31.2 deg C in the wonderfully named Ballywatticock, County Down - or perhaps the reporter was suffering from sunstroke when typing the nameDavycc wrote:Supposedly to hit 30+ here over the next 2 days.

Yeah, Ballywatticock has become pretty famous up here overnight. Most people had never heard of it lol. I love the sun and am always getting it in the neck as I don't wear screen. As a family we have swarthy skin and have never burnt. However last weekend was becoming uncomfortable. On hols your geared up for it but not at home.kk white wrote:Just read that officially the highest ever recorded temp in Norn Iron was yesterday, next door to you Davy - 31.2 deg C in the wonderfully named Ballywatticock, County Down - or perhaps the reporter was suffering from sunstroke when typing the nameDavycc wrote:Supposedly to hit 30+ here over the next 2 days.

Highest ever down here was recorded just a few hundred metres from my house - 33.3C at Kilkenny Castle, albeit in June 1887!
