Lol...you forget how that black vynal would just about fuse to your legs when you got in after a day at the beach!

No power in those temps, and over Christmas...that sucks big time.

What else would one expect in the desert?

[Rockoz]

I love how some of the record temperatures being shown in some places record temperatures to 0.1 of a degree.

In some cases, and not necessarily in the above post, the record for 100 years or whatever was broken by a couple of points of a degree.

Yet, when those original temperatures were recorded, they wouldnt have been recorded for the most part within a degree or maybe half a degree of accuracy.

The thermometers back then didnt have scaling sufficient for 0.1 degree measurements.

 

A true scientific measurement for comparison studies these days must be carried out in identical circumstances.

In the case of temperatures, at the exact same location, using preferably the same instrumentation to measure the temperature.

 

Whilst doing my engineering studies, these were rules of evidence.

Otherwise we were told that we were comparing apples to oranges.

 

Not sure where so called scientific evidence will end up with discrepancies creeping in from doing the wrong thing.

Up there with research that these days seems more like preparing for a debating match instead of actually doing proper research.

 

Just my thoughts on what I was taught.

 

 

Cheers

You dont need scientific evidence to know when its frOckin hot over here    
lived all my life in the same area its wasn’t this  hot 30 years ago 

 

What i do find funny is the media weather report 

Its fine and a sunny 42 degrees in W.A. 
but you have a 37 degree day over on the east coast its a frOckin heat wave 

frOckin soft

What else would one expect in the desert?

Bunbury Mean annual rainfall 720mm.
Hobart mean annual rainfall 612mm.

Yet I find the weather these days more like when I was growing up in the 70s and 80s.

Sure, we get the occasional extreme days of heat or cold, but I can remember them from my childhood as well.

But it does seem that as lots of people age, they find the hotter days more extreme than they recall.

 

Some of the bits you see that showed the temps from the 1800s show that we havent really changed a lot.

But when they are now measuring things with finer measurements, falsehoods seem to be finding their way into the data.

Im sure the CSIRO takes note of all high temperatures recorded, but they have been caught out raising minimums by significant amounts.

And their response was that it didnt alter their results.

If you are looking at an apparent increase in average temperatures, then altering the smaller numbers will of course alter the average.

That's terribly hot. I dislike the cold but that's just way too hot. The hottest day that I recall here (Wollongong NSW) was 44 degrees. When I was surfing that morning the wind felt burning hot on my face whilst in the water.

Feel sorry for you guys in the west.

Case in point here that the heat fries your brain.

Your mighty leader translating English in to English.

He's also got a few other downsides.

But I would take that guy over any of the others currently in power at the moment.
