That is very hot!


Time for lots of AC, fans, and baths filled with cool water - It's just too hot to wander out to the pool. :holy-moly

I've experienced temps up to 43 degC, that is near Roxby Downs SA, where I was working at the time. It was a dry heat, so bearable. Unlike the humid summer days we get on the east coast of NSW...

Yep that sure is a hot one.

I do remember those hot and very humid summers when I working on the East Coast in the 90's
