Thanks for that. Yes I am too. It came as a bit of a surprise to me, as I thought the heat would help. Think I might need to dig into the research if there is any.

Hey @Christine164 and @aucuparia,
I hope you two are doing well, especially with the weather at the moment, I have also been struggling a bit with pain during this heatwave- here is an article from Versus Arthritis on how to manage your arthritis in warm weather.
I hope this helps! Please feel free to ask us or the helpline with any questions.

I always find that dry heat (eg mediterranean climate) is great - relieves stiffness and pain - but high humidity can be challenging.
