Got home around 4.30pm, temp in the house said 34 deg celsius, about 90 degrees right? Temperature today got to 43 deg C (108 in your language) Just too hot to do much, Boss is cheap bastard who let us knock off 1/2 hour early.

Evaporative cooling in the house cools it down fairly quick, especially after sunset...8.30pm. It will only get down to 28-29 overnight, so lots of people are fairly snarly by day 3. Yesterday only got to 34, Thursday is estimated at 43 deg, same for Friday and Sarurday.
Longest stretch above 40 degt for a million years, or since records began, I don't know. AND it has not rained a drop in 26 days...Our average rainfall for January was 0.00

So I've had a whinge. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

What the heck is a "whinge?"

It took me 20 minutes to remove my car's ice cocoon before I could drive to work this morning. But you can keep your 108?. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
