Today is expected to be 39-40C here in Adelaide. Feel sorry for those who live north of Adelaide here in Sth Aust. I have been out to water my garden earlier. Now I am doing nothing else for the day other than sewing and Computer. Tomorrow is also expected to be hot again.

feel for you here in perth finally have some cooler days today just 26 have to say i hate it when it goes over 35 at least you can spend the day sewing..

Hi Lyn - we have also had extremely hot weather here in South Africa. Living on the coast it is extremely humid. We also need some rain. My poor garden is suffering and we have water restrictions, so only allowed to water with buckets. Oh well - I rather that than snow. LOL. Sarah

Sarah, Thank goodness we don't have water restrictions at the moment. It did reach almost 41C today.

It's been around 40C here in rural WA for the last week but last night was so cold my fingertips went numb like it was winter (15C) lol expecting 32C today and another cold night. Hope summer stays a while longer though coz I hate the cold weather :) xXx

Shirlene it looks as though all of the southern part of Australia has had it hot the past few days and yet in Queensland they are having just so much rain.

Is the air dry or humid? I could not stand the heat with humidity, unless I was on the beach with a nice constant breeze. LLDS!

Thank Goodness it is a dry heat. Don't think I could stand that humidity any more.

Ooh! How I remember those ghastly summer holidays in Adelaide. You've been having a rough trot over there. I hope you get some relief soon Lyn. Love and blessings Chris

Please send some rain down to us.

39C here, Lyn. That's 102.2F. I believe it could go higher here. Nasty N/NW wind building up, too. It's a real fire danger day.
It's 31.3C already - that's 88.3F. I shopped early. Did the washing early, too. It was dry in minutes.
I'm hoping my daughter cancels the visit to the Lakes Playground for my little great-grandson's 1st birthday party and has it at home instead. Even in the deep shade of the lovely trees the air will still be very hot.
I don't mind the hot weather but it's difficult to get used to a jump from around 20C last week to 40C this week. The ever-present thought that current arsonist who's been lighting fires along the Penola Road a few Km from here last week is a worry, too. If a fire gets into the pine forest across the road I think this house would go up with it.
It's a good day to sew and connect with cyber-friends, though, and I have to admit that I enjoy getting into a real Aussie Summer Routine for a while.

Why don't we just share and that would bring the temps both back to an even temp.
