Really? I can't say I've noticed that. I feel like the summers have gotten more moderate and winter just downright colder. Even this summer seems pretty mild. I also despise muggy weather. I'm beginning to despise the winter even more.

It was still 32 degrees when I went to bed the other night.

Towns have been wiped off the map:

Inferno all but wipes Yarloop from map
WA is counting the cost of its most damaging bushfire in more than 50 years after the historic town of Yarloop was all but wiped from the map by an inferno that destroyed about 95 homes.

Shattered residents were yesterday flown and driven via convoy to evacuation centres in Pinjarra and Australind, clinging to meagre possessions and one piece of good news — that three townsfolk missing overnight had been accounted for.
Fuck you summer.

Currently 19 degs in Melb, raining, 89% humidity. 30+ and 87% humidity yesterday. Tame-as compared to SE QLD which is making headlines down here for record heat+humidity but still, I hate muggy. Where's my dry heat.

I can imagine that's tough for Melbournians.

Don't feel too bad for us, yesterday was the wussiest 37 degrees I've experienced since an Adelaide 37. The sun never broke through the clouds which helped immensely.

I see you've only got a max of 21 today, Melbourne. That's almost jumper weather.

Seriously it must be the aircon. I'm not suffering with humidity at all. I didn't even know yesterday was all that muggy. Warm, certainly.. I must have acquired some kind of new super power lately.

And Maddy, that's Melbourne. Hot for a day, cold for two.

Missus said it's expected to be 40 degrees and 100% humidity on the GC this week. So fucken glad I am here in 5-14 degrees days. At least when it's cold I can put on layers to keep warm. It's not like you can keep taking clothes off to stay cool when you don't have air con.

That's what I'd love about Melbourne. Sure, it gets hot but it doesn't last.

The worst of it is gone tombstone, today is still hot and humid (33) but by tomorrow we'll be back enjoying a fantastic summer.

Perth has recorded its fourth consecutive day of temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius, equalling a record that has stood for more than 80 years, as a heatwave continues to grip the city.

The temperature peaked at 40.3C in Perth at 11:30am on Wednesday.

The last time the city recorded four consecutive days above 40C was in 1933.

However, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) said it was unlikely the record would be broken on Thursday, with a slightly lower 38C forecast for the metropolitan area.

...

[BoM forecaster Neil Bennett] said Perth had also now recorded its most number of 40C days in any one summer.

"Yesterday we equalled that record of six, but now we have set a new record. We've had seven days of 40 degrees or more in summer," he said.

"We've had two in December, one in January and now four in February."

Firstly, this is the fuck off summer thread. Secondly, the next four days are 20, 23, 22, and 22. That's what you set air conditioning to. That's perfect. Why you would want hotter weather than this ideal of artificial creation I do not know.

no, those temperatures are alright. I still wouldn't mind it a bit hotter than that though. I'd say 25 - 31.7 is a good summer day. And slightly warmer nights, around 21 - 22 with a breeze is ace.

I'm already dreading Winter.

Fuck off, err, Summer overlapping into Autumn. Melbourne now trapped in a 'hot air mass'. Humid all week. 35 degs today. Like being inside a toilet with the lid down.

Yeah I'm a whiny little baby when it comes to muggy.

Yeah, this is fucked. I'm over it, fuck off. It's been pretty atypical weather since February too, hello strong El Nino!

I read somewhere recently that El Nino's tend to show their force mostly in February and March, I can't say that hasn't happened here.
