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 !

I can't get over the crazy weather this Summer! It's usually up here in Brisbane getting some high temps, but it honestly hasn't been all that extreme... Hope that doesn't just mean it's going to be coming up here soon!

Those temperatures are just ridiculous. I hope there's a cool change coming for anyone in those places!!

My friend moved from Adelaide to Brisbane and was bemoaning the fact that she was going to find it hard. Now she is LAUGHING. Bless ...

Apparently we are going to be spared the worst of it, but may have more rain and wind. I can live with that ...
