OK. Thanks. My data is outdated. The highest was 42°C. And that's one of the highest so far. However, it is still much hotter in the UK.

There's a difference between the actual temperature and how it feels. That's why weather reports give these two variables two different columns. The reason is humidity. When you sweat, there's evaporation which reduces the feeling of heat. When humidity is high, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in more intense heat. This is called the "feels-like" temperature and it's measured in terms of relative humidity. Below is a table of how temperature feel like with respect to relative humidity. I've been in both regions, believe me, the exact same temperature is much hotter in the West.
Definitely feels hotter in UK at equivalent temperatures due to the humidity �

My problem with oyibo weather is it doesn’t stay long. That 40C likely stayed for 15 minutes. It’s still a record so nothing spoil.

Global warming.

Even fishes are feeling the earth warming up and relocating to cooler regions, thereby causing loss of income for fishermen.

A wise fisherman will block the marine boarders to the cooler region to harvest all for his one benefit

God is Warning Humanity with these events! Wake Up people!News Headlines are Right Out of the Pages of the Bible!

The Only reason the Tribulation has not Started is becos of the restrainer who is Holding back all of the Destruction that is about to Hit this world.

Something is about to Happen on this earth. JESUS CHRIST is about to take out His own from this sinking ship.
Take your relationship with GOD highly serious. A Genuie relationship with Jesus Christ is the most Important thing on earth right now.[/s]

That's just a little off 40 degrees.

I learned it got up to 42°C this year! However, it's not as hot as 40°C in the UK due to the relative humidity.

Genesis 1:28
'And God blessed them [granting them certain authority] and said to them,
“Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subjugate it [putting it under your power];
and rule over (dominate) the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
'

We woefully failed at bringing the earth under control.

They have to call parents to pick thier children from schools and ask them not to come until further notice.

The AC is also braking down as it can't stand the heat.

Normal thing for Naija

How is it a normal thing in Nigeria to have 41'C weather?

Most states in Nigeria have never crossed 36 degrees. Only Borno gets hotter than 42 degrees

Northern states exceed daily temperatures of 50°.

Nothing new abeg!

You have no idea what you're talking about.
No place in Nigeria has ever been near 50 degrees.
We just have poor respect for numbers in Naija, that's why people can claim their grandfather is 177 years and nobody takes them to task �

Virtually EVERY building in the UAE and Oman has air conditioning…
They usually walk from air conditioned buildings to air conditioned cars, and vice versa.

People even leave their AC on in the Gulf when they go on vacation.

Schools are closed down in the UK because of a temperature that seems normal in Africa. In Nigeria, Mathematics, statistics and engineering class holds around 2pm when the weather is at the peak.

All these religious jumbo, covid came they said the end was finally near, whenever disaster occurs the world is about to end, now temperatures are rising, it's still the same world ending, I wonder how many times the world will end. Sit in one place and be preaching fantasies while serious countries are making landmark achievements.
