I'm here in Adelaide, South Australia ... same state but 450kms due south of OzWeatherman in Woomera.

We've also been breaking temperature records consistently for the last few years.
Last year we had our longest continuous heatwave (14 days) of temps in excess of 35c daily ... and even hit an altime record of 46c one day.

As Oz mentioned, we're still only in the tail end of our Spring and have broken yet another heat wave spring record (last week) of 5 continuous days of 35c+ days.

Todays forecast is 43c and right now at 2:30pm, it's already hit 41c

I was saying to my wife the other day that I expect that within 5 years, we'll probably hit temps of 48-49c during summer.

Here in Adelaide, we used to enjoy what could be called "Meditteranean" type of weather ... hot (but not overly) summers and cool winters.

The last 5 years or so that's all essentially gone to pot ... long before we even come close to our summer peak, you can fry an egg on the footpath outside !
