The Heatwave

[Thunderstruck]

only 23 today top was meant to be 32..41 for tomorrow ouch playing cricket in that but I'm not sure if it will get to 41 and only 20 with rain on Sunday

Should get to about 44C or so in Geelong 2moro I'd say, 45C for Melb would be my actual forecast.

Brisbane has been hot but it's nothing special. Been 30 degrees max most days but its the humidty that makes it unpleasant up here. I think its got to 99% in the past week

Been raining a fair bit too.

I'm guessing all students don't have to go to school? For those training for sport teams, what's it like training in this heat?

 

[scooterb]

Renmark 30 48 Windy. Late evening change.
Roxby Downs 33 48 Windy. Late evening change.

Holy ****!

I'm looking forward to tennis tomorrow (Melbourne). You guys playing cricket have it easy.

juniors is already cancelled in geelong
im sure seniors will follow suit

48 forecast for two SA locales - I wonder if the record (50.7) will go under?

That's pretty damn extreme heat.

 

[madcat001]

the cricket will be called off in geelong most likely. because of the extreme wind etc it wont even be a decent day for the beach. wonder what time the power will black out?

 

[MacMum]

I see Mildura is supposed to be 46 today (saturday).....If that is what is expected, then I'm tipping it will get to 48 easily!

A real hellhole on hot days!!

 

[The Cotch]

We're gonna break records today.

 

[tess]

We're gonna break records today.

Lets hope it's just for the heat!

 

[beez]

39.3 in Melbourne atm

Edit: Just hit 40.0

 

[Paddy_Mac]

My computer says it's 43 now!

 

[Xtreme]

It's warm but i wouldn't say it's boiling at this point. The wind will hopefully ensure it doesn't get hotter.

 

[Kahuna]

****en expecting 45 where I live, it was stinking hot at 7 this morning.

I think going to the pub and sinking a few is in order.

Wind would help, if it wasn't a northerly.

44ish at the moment for me.

Melbourne 07/01:05pm 43.0

Nah, not hot at all.

 

[Xtreme]

I was going to say that i must have built up a toleranace to last weeks heat. I'm not feeling it today as i was back then.

 

[Belly #12]

45 easily here, and the air conditioner stuffed itself so yeah.

Unbearable.

 

[chickens_law]

****, it feels 10 degrees hotter than it was last week. BoM says its 44.1 in Melbourne...just another few more degrees.

 

[Thunderstruck]

46.8C at Avalon, that is extraordinary. That place always wins in the Melb area for heat. Geelong usually up there too...as u can see that 41C progged was too low 45.5C Geelong max temp so far. City struggling behind the rest but still 44.3C. No doubt some metro stations are going to crack 46C.

Adelaide is very lucky the change came in early otherwise they'd be getting 46-47C

 

[lifelike_]

Apparently up to 45 now.

46.8 at Avalon. Wonder how high it'll go.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

45.2 in the city.

 

[Paddy_Mac]

It's 45 now. I can't remember it ever being 45 here before? To think I wanted to keep playing cricket today in the morning when it got called off.
