I've heard of people that it has happened to in this situation.

Probably best to play safe and wait about 30 secs after the kettle
has boiled. by the time you get outside it should be well off of boiling.

I've found hot water from the tap just fine. No need to wait for the
kettle to boil.

Not having a combi boiler I never thought of that.
