They hit 119 degrees in freedom units, for those in the US

I saw 118 in Austin. 119 is hot.

Record temp in austin is 112, and that was during that 2011 heat wave.

In the UK we don’t get temperatures like this, but it doesn’t take much heat before parts of the country start feeling completely unprepared for it
TMWNN•16m ago
