It's Too Bloody Hot!

[outback]

At the moment the temperature in my workshop is 26 % . Trouble is I had too good a lunch to go there now.


Peter.

26% of what?

I'm not game to put a thermometer in my shed, I'd onl;y find out how much too hot it is in there. I'm happy to know its way to hot.

Just for a little fun a put a digital thermometer out in the sun in the backyard today. It recorded a max of 50.0 and a min of 27.5. The min was at 9.00 am when I put it out. Now it is back to around 28. The thermometer can read up to 70 so 50 was chilly.

we measured a 50 under our back deck as well, though we spend half the day in the garage trying to get the car running for Australia day. Then get home to find out they have upped the expected temp to 40+. Looks like we wont be going to the car display (Car will cope, driver wont). Test drove the car early this arvo and wondered why it was getting hot. Temp gauge went off the dial.

Will have to keep an eye on the expected temps to see if we can make the aussie day display

Rocker has it right.

If you can't stand the heat, leave Hell!!

Move to Heaven.

P (23° and admittedly with a few light showers, but clearing later - gosh I love summer here ... it's just like winter. )

Seem to remember Midge said something bout his air conditioer some time ago.
fess up BM,
do you use an air conditioner

[Schtoo]

0 degrees here, expecting snow any day now...

It's dry heat, no problems whatsoever, so what the ^%^&% are you crying for???

Officialy 39c in Hobart today..My Backyard (in the shade - 43c +relative humidity 76%) 2 blocks from the beach in Bellerive.:eek::eek:

It's always hovering around the 40C mark out here at this time of year so I turbo-charged my shed (that's what the kids reckon it looks like anyway). Now I can spend the summer in the shed (cooler than the house) and the winter out collecting wood.

PS Also works as a dust expulsion system.!!!! Blows everything straight out the door at the other end.

The reverse is true for winter.

As is the A/C unit

Your memory's playing tricks Bob!!

No air conditioner, no heating. We do have a woodburning fireplace, which consumes about a sugarbag of 2 x 1 roof battens per season for effect, but now that my dearest has worked out she can put candles in there adn get a firey effect without all that silly heat, we probably won't burn too much!

Cheers,

Love it: dust expulsion instead of dust collection. How sensible!

Why the two outlets?

trees came from the earth, he`s just sending parts of them back to where they came from

It made it up to 30° on the verandah for a short while yesterday....
currently 22° at 9am.

Zen - the A/C is designed to run 5 or 6 outlets normally - even pumping out through just 2 on high speed it nearly blows me out the door with the dust !!!:eek: :eek: :eek:

Err Gra,

It is a Jaguar, isn't it? They stopped making good ones around 1975.

I did have a nice '67 E some years ago. Pretty reliable too, but then I'd sort of grown up on Alfa Romeos :eek:
