I am not complaining about Sydney's weather this week.

It was a mere 30 or so here today, quite thoroughly bearable. In Adelaide, the city of churches and blessed public pools, it was nearly 46 degrees Celcius. That is over 110F.

THAT IS INSANE!!

Melbourne was a balmy 42 by comparison, and neither city is scheduled to drop below 40 during the day for the next several days, nor far below that at night.

Poor old Canberra is nearly as badly off.

Feral, Mere, Jamie, Emerald, and you Adelaideans, HIDE IN THE FREEZER AISLE AT THE SUPERMARKET!!! Stop pretending it's bearable, it's completely not! Hell, come up to Sydney for the week, it's passably reasonable here.

Finally, HAPPY BIRTHDAY [personal profile] separatrix !

46 degrees is not funny. Jandals start melting to the footpath at 40!

I will now encourage all the Britishers to appreciate our perfectly reasonable 3-10 degrees.

46!!!!! O.o

Oh what I wouldn't give for an English winter right now. I'd even settle for a Scottish one ... at least Sydney's 40 degree weather sat on 40 and 42 and then went down to 28 or 25 at night, I believe Adelaide is going down to 30+ at night, madness!

And they wonder why Australians are all so barking mad.
