Somewhere between 41 and 42 degrees. Bleagh! But a merciful cold front rolled in late afternoon and dropped the temp by nearly 20 degrees, which may be the only reason I am still alive ;-)

In happier news, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to joanwilder , faithwood  and sparemint ! May the day have been far more gorgeous and enjoyable for you!

December is actually the best of the summer months on average. January and February tend to be dire. And Melbourne was historically more likely to be wet than Sydney, though since The Great Drought, rain is erratic and welcome when it falls.
