Oh I don't know how anyone can live in that heat! It is 9 degrees here and I find that hot enoughRe: Living in Interesting Times
Interesting times BRUCE, thats a very pragmatic approach to the warnings.Re: Living in Interesting Times
43'C is unusually high, about 7 years ago I cycled the 14 km home from work in 44' heat, it was OK until I ran out of water with about 2km to go. It happens occasionally but remember this is dry heat, the humidity is very low - part of the reason for the fire danger - you would be surprised what a difference that makes. You must keep hydrated though because sweat evaporates immediately and completely.Re: Living in Interesting Times
It was 41.8 here in Hobart on Friday - the hottest for 37 years. Today it's 18 which will make it easier for firefighters. A crew from Victoria has arrived to help.
