13 of those 18 years have happened since 2009. There's a reason spotting patterns is included in an IQ test.
The UK has hit 35°C+ in 18 different years on record.
In 1976, it hit 35°C+ for five consecutive days.
So yes, it gets hot sometimes.
But can we all calm down a bit… and also get rid of the doom maps?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

22 - 25 is not average when 90% of the adult population probably couldn’t run a continuous running 5k
How fast is your 5K?
• 12–14 min = Olympic-level
• 14–18 min = Elite
• 18–22 min = Competitive
• 22–25 min = Average
• 25–30 min = Fit enough
• 30–40 min = Beginner
Over 40?
You’re out there trying. And honestly… that counts more than people admit.
Most people won’t even test themselves over 5K. They’ll stay comfortable and never find out.
You did. That already puts you in a different group.
