Had an overnight low of 27.8ºC at my place on Thursday night/Fri morning, went out at 5am and it was over 30, the seeing was awful, Arcturus was twinkling so badly it looked like it was gonna go pop at any moment.
Had 9 days over 30C at my place this month, which is about twice as much as for the whole of Feb
Forecast 24/39 for melb. Tomorrow night could be blistering away from the seabreezes as the northerlys strenghen ahead of the cool change. I wouldn't be surprised to see 26-28C minimum temps around melbourne before sunrise on Tues.
