Terribly hot, also, myself: it’s horrible (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

loathsome

'it's horrible' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'terribly hot also myself' is the wordplay.
'terribly' is an anagram indicator.
'myself' becomes 'me'.
'hot'+'also'='hotalso'
'hotalso' anagrammed gives 'loathso'.
'loathso'+'me'='LOATHSOME'

(Other definitions for loathsome that I've seen before include "gross" , "Disgusting, nauseating" , "Horrid" , "Hateful" , "15 [ABHORRENT]" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
