Hot Out Here

[ShedBoy]

Went outside and check the thermometer yesterday 49 degrees celcius in the shade! Who knows what it is in direct sunlight. Water from the cold tap is 30 degrees! Verified heat at a weather station. It is now mid morning and 38 degrees already and it is going to start raining any day now, that is going to be uncomfortable.

Send some of that heat my way!

I don't want it hot, just warm enough to clear the ice off the roads for my
morning commute to work.

ICE! I have to put my head in the freezer to see ice or snow. Never seen snow in my life. If I could swap I would.

Just went and checked the mill thermometer hanging on a post out in the open in a shade cloth box, insert drum roll here 51 Degrees Celcius!! Put a temp gun on a sheet of steel in the yard 78 Degrees Celcius! Even the lizards have gone and hid. Snakes are hyperactive in these temps.

sounds like if set a cast iron griddle in the sun you can cook right on it no need to fire up the barbie.

Once it gets over 40°C it's all academic anyway - not a matter of whether it will kill you, just when!

Our air conditioner kicked in for the 1st time this summer but only 34C outside in the shade according to my $3.00 thermometer.

Had a few snowy days here so far.
Nothing that sticks around for more than a few days though...
Raining again this morning and going up to 8 degrees C!!

Going to be a green Christmas this year!

All because i bought a snowblower!!! ;D

Waiting for the snow to get the beast out of the garage and into a snow bank!

Seems to be a bit hotter than usual, this is the wet season too! Mid to high 40's is the norm not 50 though. Interesting fact hottest recorded temp in WA was 50.5 at a place called Mardi, at bit north of here. Could not sell a snow tyre in WA.

That's getting warm! I've never seen it go above 45°C here, but, mind you, it also goes down to -16°C, a big enough swing for my liking.
