Damn it's hot today....

[Felder]

33 degrees Celcius and only 21% humidity here.....and it's not even 10am!!

Wish I'd packed a spare pair of jocks.....

[Bleedin Thumb]

On the coast there is a thick fog, about 21 deg and very humid.
Heard from someone that the Ferries have been cancelled.

[craigb]

Did my morning walk over the 'Bridge from Milson's Point this morning.

You could barely see the Opera House through the mist. It was as humid as buggery too.

By the time I got in to work I was sweating like the proverbial. :rolleyes:

Had to stand over an A/C vent to cool down. :o

Well you'd best brace yourself for when it burns off, Bleedin, cos it's a stinker! :(

About 20 degrees and very windy down here today. Nice day to be in the office. Rather be in the shed though...

[Bleedin Thumb]

Yeh Brendan , the fogs gone now...bring it on baby!...
My only complaint today are the bloody cicada's.... can't hear myself think!

[TassieKiwi]

Coolish start this morning, 'bout 7-8° at the pool at 5:50am. Now crisp and clear, 0/8ths and expecting 22° with a light westerly.:cool:

[Felder]

The wind direction has just changed to a southerly and the temperature has dropped 5 degrees and humidity is up to 49%. All in the space of about ten minutes.

Yes: I am a weather geek.

Still hot though..... :(

[Bleedin Thumb]

Gawd, next you'll be giving us precipitation reports.

[Felder]

Well its not that warm here BUT its a bl@@dy sight warmer than it usually is this time of year.
The last couple of days I have been working outside in a short sleeved polo shirt, except in the rain.
It really is nice but you get the feeling that it will freeze your nuts off before the winter is over.
I miss the cicadas here. We never hear any. There are plenty of sirens though.

[Flowboy]

Almost hot enough to boil a monkey's b*m

[echnidna]

Beautiful weather down south today.

[ptc]

2.30pm and only 15deg here.

[Christopha]

2.30 and about 27 here, light southerly breeze, bloody nice, might go sit on the ride on mower for a bit....

[Rossluck]

Brisbane and the Gold Coast are at their worst today. I don't know what the temp is but it's hellishly hot and smokey and hazy and when you drive you hope you don't break down because you would have to get out of the air conditioning and ... I could go on ... Brisbane at it's worse. :( :( :(

[Harry72]

Low 40's here @ 15.50

I cant understand the weatherzone web site they say its only 31... their on drugs!

Indian Summer then. 20's here (Dunedin) but violent Westerlies. Splatters of rain but gone before they hit the ground. Ahhhh England: Pint of Pride please - OK Directors - that'll be good..

[mic-d]

Just got home and the outside temperature sensor says its still 36º in the shade (4.30pm Queensland stupid bloody standard time). Could you imagine how hot it would be if we went to daylight savings:rolleyes:

And I hd to pick yesterday and today to replacea side fence:(

Radar says the storm might just get us, fingers crossed for some rain.

Cheers
Michael

[RufflyRustic]

[echnidna]

Sounds like time to sling off at the crummy weather up north.:D

Its been a very nice day down south.:cool:

[Rossluck]

Wendy, you have your own radar? I'm impressed must be some shed you have set up there.:)

[Harry72]

Was still 33 on the way home from work at 6.30am this morning!!!

[RufflyRustic]

:D Bleedin' - I've actually got 3 radars, the eyeball-the-sky, HWMBO's arthritis and the Bureau of Met's radar :D HWMBO's radar works the best:D

[bennylaird]

Ahhh memories. I used to maintain the WF44 Weather Radar at RAAF Butterworth. Would ask the met officer the forcast and he would look out the window and say what he saw:D :D :D :D

[Felder]

HWMBO's state of stiffness

:eek:
You trying to send a thread about the weather to the Orange Room, Wendy?

[RufflyRustic]

No!!! :eek: :rolleyes:

Fixed, thanks Felder:o

[bennylaird]

No!!! :eek: :rolleyes:

Fixed, thanks Felder:o


Sure it is Wendy, we believe you:D :D

[RufflyRustic]

Well Brisbane got hit by hail yesterday afternoon and today it is windy and a lot cooler than yesterday. Still no rain locally though I believe our local dams may have got some rain....

[bennylaird]

Supposed to be 32 here with a late change, hopefully some rain here as well, will keep the dust down a bit.

[echnidna]

Its still a nice day down south, pleasantly warm.
A great day for painting pressies

[Christopha]

This is us over here in the middle bit (sorta)

[Bluegum]

Apparently it was 40 here in ipswich yesterday and the storm that followed wasn't much with only 3mm of rain here with a small amount of hail. Bring on the rain......

[mic-d]

Bring on the rain......

Amen to that!

[Big Shed]

I don't know what everyone is complaining about, Birdsville had 47 yesterday.........:eek:

[swiftden]

Well it got to 42 here in Murray Bridge today :(

[Christopha]

13 athe moment and a predicted top of 25...... mmmmmm Friday!

[Felder]

Total Fire Ban here today. Looks like it will be hot, dry and windy. :(

[bennylaird]

Total Fire Ban here today. Looks like it will be hot, dry and windy. :(


How go the fires? Any danger of flare ups?:confused:

Hope that the mongrels who light fires are on their meds today and stay in bed.

[Felder]

How go the fires? Any danger of flare ups?:confused:
The fire fighting campaign in the Blue Mountains was slowly winding up. The fire is still burning in a remote area of the Grose Valley, but closed roads were being re-opened and fire crews were being stood down.

I was supposed to be on a crew today, but got stood down on Wednesday.
I received a call last night saying that due to the Total Fire Ban, the crew had been re-instated, but I'd already made four appointments for today. Work wins as work pays the bills.

The re-opened road has now been re-closed, and folks are bracing themselves again. We just need a week of cool weather and the fire would probably burn itself out. :o

[craigb]

A week of rain wouldn't go astray either. :(

[MurrayD99]

Rained most of yesterday and half the night. Freezing.... not going to get above 11 degrees. Trade you 1/2" of rain for 10 degrees hot.

[Felder]

A comfortable 26.7 at Observatory Hill (Sydney city). :)

A jock soaking 39.3 where I am out in the western sticks. :(

[bennylaird]

Too much info Mateeeeeeeeeeeeeee:p :p :p

[Flowboy]

Jock who, does he know Phil McCracken?

[mongrell]

isnt Phill McCraken Ben Doons brother

[Flowboy]

I believe so, and an inspection of their family tree shows an Irish branch, represented by either Michael Fitzpatrick or Patrick Fitzmichael. Records are vague.

[woodcutta]

I think Phillup Mc Averty is a distant relation

woodcutta

[RETIRED]

You are walking a fine line boys.:rolleyes:

[goat]

strange weather indeed yesterday was 30 this afternoon i went to pick up a truck load of hay and it was snowing followed by hail:eek:
