Not too bad here in Perth Eric, had one day at 44c,  but mostly in mid 30s. A couple of small fires.
Thank god we have good air-conditioning. Best thing since sliced bread. |
The Adelaide bushfire control was helped when we had steady rain overnight, and is now80% under control,no loss of life but about 30 homes destroyed.
The weather dep,t now tell us that we could be in for the heaviest rains for some years.
