Grab a cold one, lie down in the shade and then enjoy these 27 UK heatwave memes
No air con, no sleep, just sweat
We asked for a hot girl summer, to make up for what’s safe to say has been the worst year of our lives. But what we didn’t ask for was sweaty girl summer, dehydrated girl summer or sunburnt girl summer. A heatwave has hit the UK with the force of 10,000 suns, and sales of fans have never been higher. I say this directly to god, geography teachers or whoever is in control of the weather: Please sort it out.
The Met Office has issued a UK extreme heat warning, with temperatures potentially going higher than 35 degrees Celsius in parts of the country. If you didn’t already believe me: It’s hot. But whilst people are crying over how hot they are and saying they’ve never been sweatier, the heat has given us one good thing, and that good thing is heatwave memes tweets and memes.
Now wipe away your SULA, turn your fan on and enjoy these 27 UK heatwave memes, because you know you have nothing better to do when it’s this hot:
