For those affected by the bushfires in Victoria. So far 35 people have been confirmed dead, including children. These are now the worst bushfires in Victorian history, surpassing the fires from Ash Wednesday in 1983.

Feeling hot, hot, hot.

Today was the second hottest day in all of South Australia’s recorded history. It reached a searing 45.8 degrees celsius (114 degrees farenheit) here today. 

The road was melting. Literally. The tar used to repair the cracks was a glistening, melted mass. It was so hot it was hard to breathe outside. We have a week of searing hot weather to look forward to here in SA. The forecast for the next week looks like this:

Thurs 44

Fri 41

Sat 40

Sun 40

Mon 39

Tues 38

Wed 38

Rather depressing isn’t it?

 

Hello, Global Warming.
