23.5c ground floor
23c upstairs.

---

22.7C in the lounge, 22.8 in the hall.

 

Gentle breeze flowing through the house. Really pleasant.

---

28C outside and 28.7C upstairs - there's a breeze. Downstairs, with the windows firmly shut and west-facing curtains drawn it's 23.5C.

 

---

25-26C so comfortable and very pleasant warm indoor temps.  

When I went to bed last night it was 29.8C in my living room/bedroom. As you’d imagine sleeping was very difficult.

---

With 4 nights this week with overnight lows of just 19C the indoor temperatures are going to be high here, and that's going to be coupled with the humidity.

20c in lounge, 22c in bedrooms, 28c outside

Thank goodness we installed air conditioning last year, so much better than trying to sleep in a bedroom that feels like a sauna.

---

One perk of getting the electrics sorted for a car charger is that I'll be able to get a proper a/c unit installed in due course - hopefully in time for next summer. That said, a 14K BTU portable one did an admirable job last night, the downside is that it won't turn on if it's more than 35C!

Talking of which, it was 33C upstairs when I got in, 24.5 downstairs and 28C outside.

A couple of hours later, it's still 24.5C downstairs (those new windows are doing a super job of keeping the heat out), while upstairs it's 30.2 in the back bedroom (with the windows open) and 24.0C in my bedroom (with the a/c running for the past 2 hours).

---

I ordered a portable ac and should be here by Wednesday.

Mostly for use in the bedroom for sleep mainly.

---

Indoor Tenp currently 29.5C.

Another issue with modern flats are they open plan nature, I had to
Use the oven and pushed the temp up a degree!

---

Reached 21c in the hall today which is quite warm for this house as it is normally around 16c. The benefits of old farmhouses

25c downstairs and 26c upstairs.
25.7c outside too.

---

So, as luck would have it I'm off work today. The mission is to keep the house cooler indoors than it was yesterday, but it's not going to be easy!

Currently 15.7C outside, but no wind whatsoever.

Indoors it's 23.5C downstairs, the windows have been open all night (so starting from a relatively high level).

Upstairs, again with the windows open, it's 25C... aside from my bedroom, where it's 21C (as I had the a/c on all night).

The plan is to keep the windows open all the time it's more than 1C cooler outside, then I'll close them. I'll keep the a/c on today once I close the windows, even though it'll cost a small fortune, in the hope it'll help moderate temperatures indoors somewhat.

TBH I've no idea how to keep things cool IF it gets to 40C, or even close to it. There's usually a few hours' grace before the inside warms up to the outside temperature, but these muggy, warm nights aren't helping much!

EDIT: Patio doors wide open, fan on the patio blowing into the living room. It's gone from 23.5 to 22 in the space of 10 minutes in there.

---

Touched 30c in my bedroom tonight, been around 28-29C for the majority of the time.

It's a small room and the computer being on doesn't help matters

---

24.5c all around the bungalow. Windows and doors open.

---

Up to 27.5C inside at one point today, and that’s in a badly insulated Victorian pile with no south facing windows. The nights in London have been so warm, no respite.

Now 27C but only just a degree of so cooler outdoors so no relief yet.

---

21c downstairs and 22c upstairs with the windows open , the lowest it will get for a while .
Sun is back out and temp climbing to nearly 20c now as the warmth starts to edge back in.

---

Up early this morning. All doors and windows wide open to allow as much cool air in...outside its just a shade over 9c...downstairs 20c...upstairs 21c.

---

Good move that, I'm also trying to get as much cool air in as possible. It'll be a tougher job than you have though as it's 15.4C outside here.

23.1C upstairs (windows open all night) and 22.5C downstairs.

 

---

Managed to get it down to 21.5 downstairs and 23.5 in the loft study this morning. I expect that's as low as it will get. Was 24.5 and 30.5 for a while earlier in the week.

---

Between 22-24C I doors now depending on time of day. Maxed at 27.5C on Tuesday. Who knows what it will reach next week.

---

25.5c with doors shut today.

---

22C outside, 22C upstairs and 22C downstairs. Can't really do better than that without a/c being involved!

 

---

I remember a few warm nights in London in 76 in a southwest facing bedroom.

---

Operation "pre condition" begins in earnest today.

Amazingly, it's only 12C outside - the coldest it's been for a week. I've put a fan on the patio, blowing that lovely cool air indoors. The windows are all open to make the most of the cooler air.

The plan is to close the windows once the air temperature gets to 20C or so, then let the a/c do its thing. It'll take time for the downstairs to warm up.

The aim is to have it around 22C down, 24C up to start tomorrow's "fun".

Anyway, for now, it's 21C upstairs and 18.5C downstairs.
