Tell me about it this is in the shade on my back verandah

Crikey Trout!

I thought it was hot here today, perhaps it's just the humidity. I've been out a couple of times, came in pretty soon thereafter, but it's nothing on that!

Reaching 43 degs. by next week in Adelaide. Plenty of time will be spent watering.!!

48 degrees C in the shade now.
The cucumbers and Habanera's are suffering.
An how's this for a  a  planchet peel , I blow this on the way to the store and even my pluggers were sticking to the melting asphalt when i changed it :dash1

It quite often gets over 50 C here because I live on a ridge of Granite and it takes a while for the sea breeze to get here (IF it gets here).
The Easterlies are the killers here.

Not a day you wanting to be changing tyres, Trout.
Not quite so hot down here in Perth.
I put a thermometer outside and it's reading just
over 40C, maybe 41 or 42 at most.

Anything over 40 in Perth is pretty awful with all that heat staying in the roads and bricks of the neighboring houses night time wouldn't be too flash either :dash1:
At least here if the sea breeze comes in with a vengeance there is nothing to stop it between me and the sea

As I don't have air con, you're right, night time can be worse.
You jump in bed and the sheets feel like they just came out of the clothes dryer.
I'm not far from the ocean, but I don't think the Freo Doctor will be blowing today.

whoa ..

[trout]

whoa ..

All is good the sea breeze is trying its down to a balmy 40C now :dance2:

Count your blessings, folks.  It could be worse.  On Monday it was -16 F here with wind chills down to -50 F.

-16ºF=-26.7ºC!
That is starting to get cold. You can boil a saucepan of water, take it outside and throw it in the air and create a little snow storm -true.
