Smile Too Hot!!!

Been too hot to do anything, up here. Not so much celcius wise, although it's over 33 degrees, but the humidity has climbed up pretty high and it makes things uncomfortable., especially when all you have to keep cool is fans.

Hope it starts raining soon, although it can go for weeks likes this, then absolutely bucket down.

37C in perth today.

39C tomorrow.

Why don't you sit in the bath with your head under water and a snorkle? I hear that works.

You maybe hotter than here, but we're a lot more humid. That's what I'm not looking forward to later on, when the temps get up to that high and we still have the same humidity

That's like swimming in a pool up here at times...just like getting into a warm bath. Makes no difference.

Hi Carl & All,

It is 31 deg C here at bright and sunny Engadine, Sydney with 13% RH and just a couple of knots of breeze from the SSE.

I just shelled out $700 on a new washing machine today, but despite that I'm all smiles: the sky is vivid blue, the Moon doesn't rise till after 2am and you can guess where I'll be tonight!

Here is the 7-timer numerical weather panel for Bargo:

looks very good.


Best,

Les D

I love a Tasmanian summer, warm to hot & low humidity, makes the cold winters worth enduring. 21 at the moment 44% humidity. Midsummer is usually in the high 20's sometimes in the low 30's but the humidity is always low.

I haven't ridden the bike for awhile, because of the heat...and I need to fix the front tire. Sitting in the library at uni has been tempting me for some time, now. Always cool in there, plus all those books!!!

I don't think it'll really rain for a few weeks, yet. Going to be one of those summers!!!.

extremely cold here yet again...and ofcourse overcast. SO far this December has been very cold and cloudy, and forecast shows the same crap. What a catastrophic turnaround from the brilliant November we had

That is wayyy too far out, I wouldn't give it a single thought. They can't get the forecast right 1 day out most of the time
