Today and tomorrow are both going to be 42 deg C here (that's 107.6 F, in old numbers) which is not going to be very nice. A good day for staying inside with doors and windows only open a little bit so as not to let too much heat in.

Mind you, I am getting way over the media whipping us into a frenzy about fires/hot weather too. Australia is a hot country and we have hot summers, usually with fires somewhere, but the way in which weather conditions are reported one would think it's never happened before. As for reporters waving a microphone under the nose of some poor soul who has just lost their home and/or business and asking inane questions like "how did you feel when you realised your house and possessions had all gone".......for heaven's sake, give people some space, peace and privacy to grieve for what they have lost.

I'll climb down off my soapbox and kick it away now.......
