    That’s what we got to on Black Saturday in Melbs, with ridiculously strong northerlies..

  2. Hot here today, and lots of smoke in the air this morning. It was blowing down from fires to the north of us. It’s cleared a bit now. I think the wind’s changed. I just hope the fires don’t grow too big.

  3. Off topic but gotta ask – when did ‘Aussie’ as a place become a thing, per the title?

    I’ve only seen/heard Kiwis and non natives use it to this point, but curious if it’s catching on in general

  4. Fuck that, I’m in SE Qld, not known for its comfortable Summers but we’ve been escaping these really bad heatwaves for a while now, still some affordable property up on the Granite belt, it even snows sometimes.

    That’s brutal.

    If you don’t have AC get a pail of cold water, add ice and stick your feet in. Then you can relax with your preferred libation and watch TV in comfort for a few hours.

    Yeah seen that before, remember being in country SA, high 40s during the day, mid 30s at night would go for about a week.
