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 !

Wow. That's pretty terrible. I think the hottest it ever gets where I live is about 40ish, but the humidity stays at least 80% for most of the summer, and the temp rarely goes below 25-30, even at night. I'll happily send you some of the 5 degree rain we got yesterday, though :)

PS HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
