Roads melting in the UK - gritting carried out

On the same subject, here's an interesting story that my housemate told me yesterday. She had the pleasure of using the London bus network yesterday and was unfortunately situated beside a rather large man. He was obviously struggling with the conditions and sought what little relief he could find from one of those handheld fans. My housemate felt some moisture on her face but couldn't figure out its origins. A ray of sunlight cast some much needed light on the situation by attracting her attention to the beads of sweat that were being flung at her face from the aforementioned fat man's fan.
