I was there!
That is exactly what happened to me earlier this year when I was in Adelaide and the city experienced its highest ever temperature.
The previous record stood at 46.2c dating back to January 1939. This year it hit 46.6C (my car was showing 47C).
It was so hot that on temperature charts we were in the dark purple shades having gone straight past the different shades of reds.
You can feel so much heat on your skin. It’s like standing next to a foundry furnace in full melt mode in a short sleeve shirt. Even some flights got delayed due to the extreme heat. Now that’s a new one for me too.
So, whilst every local person there was moaning about this extreme freak weather, I was actually quite pleased I made it because a record that stood for so long is highly unlikely to be broken again for a while and therefore, I can say…. I was there
Until next time

Why Didn’t I Think About That?
Howdy from East Texas where the weather is unusual to say the least. Here it is late May going into June and we have yet to cross 90f yet and as I type this, it is raining yet again and the temperature on the porch is a mild 66f. Yes, we Texans always like to talk about the weather because if you don’t like what it is now just wait an hour and it will be totally different. -
