I think from memory that was part of a heat wave over 35 for about 12 days. Those sorts of days are testing. One day here and there is easy to deal with and most Adelaidians would not be concerned with the odd day here and there. It's the long heat waves that are starting become worrying. We seem to be getting longer stretches of heat during a season. Those stretches present the biggest risks for heat stroke and bush fire danger.

I agree Paul about those day after 40° temps.
I have vowed never to set foot in SA or WA again in Summer.
I can cope with the few day very hot periods here in Queenslands Sunshine Coast,but the continuous 40° + days where enough for me.
Cheers
