Australian heatwave

1/7/2013

Picture
Australia (particularly southern Australia) is in the grip of a heatwave.  Today was the first time in the past 2 weeks, that my QTH was expecting a day cooler than 30 deg C(today 29 deg C).
This map shows the temperatures around Australia on 4th January, 2013.
Some areas had temperatures above 50 degrees C.
