I know you guys think it’s the jet stream affecting you but I’m certain the real cause is much much closer and local to your vicinity - almost certainly thermals from houses with dark tile roofs that warmed up in the afternoon sun and giving off heat well into the night, and poorly insulated buildings - especially offices and apartment blocks - with central heating and ventilation systems.
Too True Wavy a lot of THERMALS from all the building works here near Burwood.near me also back at Castelreagh it's usually good and I can see what I want.. many Belts and barges on Jupiter etc. Summer is magic at Castelreagh!
