"Yes Dorrie, Ena Sharples round on Coronation St. says she heard it will be 51* tomorrow" :lol:

stagga.

 

[Bizier]

Yep, hearing the forcast for Adelaide made me shut up about the temp here in Syd.

Cheers guys.

 

[quantocks]

going to be 40+ for the rest of the week guys. Grab a case of VB, it'll see you through.

 

[Lukes]

Say what you will about -40C, when I'm cold I only have to put on more clothes or cover up with a blanket. But when you're hot.....you're pretty much stuck without A/C.

And where I grew up, north of Saskatoon, the record high was 42C and less than a year later it hit -56C. I really don't like either extreme.

FWIW, I can't fathom the temps there now. You have my sympathies. I wonder how many homebrewers try to cuddle up next to a full keg in order to get some sleep tonight.

Newguy,
Ive been to Canada when it's been 43 this time of year............
43 foot deep dry powder that is...

And what does Herb think of that? We at No 96 are refusing to drink beer during this heatwave h34r: My Aldo reckons dehydration via beer swilling will not help & Norma & Alf upstairs are on the H20 for the duration. Goodness knows what the resident poof is thinking? :lol:

TP :beer:

8pm - still 40c in Geelong

I bought a wine fridge from Aldi about 2 years ago to store my wine collection. Has been fantastic as a fermentation fridge!... whilst the Grange bakes away in the kitchen cupboard. Hey... was never gonna drink it anyway! :icon_cheers:

I feel for you lot. That sort of heat is opressive.

I remember living in cobar in NSW.......... out near broken hill (where they filmed the mad max movies) and during the 1995 dorught it hit 50 deg at 3 in the arvo for 2 weeks strait.......... made it to 53 one day..... air temp in the shade.

HEat like that is nasty. Keep cool and keep your fuids up folks!

have fun!

cheers

Melbourne heat today bent the train tracks, this is going to be an interesting week.

yeah we had train and tram delays in adelaide cause of the heat, which is awesome since te public transport system in this inbred backwater state is f#$ked enough on a normal day, its a bit sad when the new trams cant cope with the heat so they bring out the old school trams to do the run, ahhhh adelaide it takes f#$king forever to get things done in this place and when we finally have progess its not done properly.

lets hear it for the one way expressway WOOOOO!

cheers

Weren't there that day, but I spent a few days in a row over 50C in Jan 2005

 

[buttersd70]

Keep cool and keep your fuids up folks!

Problem is, I don't think my liver can keep up with it. :lol:
