But we are doing it in style with a right retro look at scorching summers from the past.
Take a dip into these memories from the Echo archives, including a 1974 scene from the Roker paddling pool and a 2013 visit to Herrington Country Park.
We’ve got ice cream from 2019, a super cool paddling pool scene from 2004 and dogs having fun in the Seaham waves in 2015.
Breeze your way through that lot and then get in touch if you spot someone you know.
13. Be cool and share
