10 Memes that perfectly describe how hot it is in Metro Manila

Last Wednesday, Metro Manila recorded a heat index of 44°C and it is only the beginning of our month-long agony as the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) warns us of warmer days ahead.

(Welcome to Hell: PAGASA warns of warmer days ahead)

However, the weather is something that is out of our control so there is no other way to deal with it than through memes! Lol, just kidding. But really, the Pinoy thing to do at tough times like this is to smile and be optimistic. Like, it’s extremely hot in here but that does not mean we can’t have fun, right?

So without further ado, here are some memes that perfectly describe how we feel right now!

10) When you thought that the electric fan is your best friend but it betrayed you.

7) It’s so hot that flexing our electric fans has become a thing.

Not that it’s a competition, but most fans only got three speed-control settings… unlike this one.
