The edge of the European heatwave has hit south Finland today but it is not here where I live yet. It should be a little milder when it hits here tomorrow and the day after. I maybe should consider getting a fan since I don't own one.
I live in a studio apartment and don't have any windows I can just crack open, but I can open the door to my glass balcony. Only problem is that the balcony is like a greenhouse with the glass panels closed and it easily heats up. Last summer I was away during a heatwave and left all the panels closed. When I came home, the thermometer on the balcony read 60 c, that is 140 F. It was like a children's sauna in there!
I think the situation will be a bit better here than the UK, as many features about our buildings and public transport that are for extreme cold also help with extreme heat.

I need to ask you guys across the pond. Isn't air conditioning widespread over there? I glean from the comments that AC isn't very widely enjoyed in the UK. Am I drawing the wrong conclusion?
Are you guys feeling natural climate shift all at once or did something else prevent the use of AC by everyone??
I feel a little guilty since my garage is air conditioned as well as my shed. Heck we just drove our car around for a week in the deep South in June with a freezer set at -2F running 24/7!

Yeah you are going to want to stay away from that glass, a white sheet or other cover on the outside will help it from becoming heat soaked and just turning into a furnace. We also had 140F on the sun side of our front door. The inside was 70 degrees cooler!
Good luck
I should probably explain. I don't always breath well and humidity is my kryptonite.
Here's the conditions this morning
Almost same temps in and outside but a world of difference in humidity!
