Melting

Today is going to reach 44 degrees Celsius (that's 111 Fahrenheit for my American readers). The fire level is at catastrophic. Yesterday was 40, tomorrow will be 41.
Luckily, it's Saturday so I can spend my day hiding away playing video games. I have a fan, so hopefully that keeps me cool enough (I also have a pint of Ben and Jerry's which I'm saving till later)
I really dislike summer, you can't get cool no matter what you do. Boo summer! At least in winter you can wear lots of clothes and snuggle. I hope all of my snowy American readers are okay at the moment, with that vortex going on.

We hates The Evil Yellow Hurty Thing! We hates it forever!!!

Sending you a large Zen box of ice cubes to help keep you cool. (Wish I COULD send something like that!)

sounds literally like hell. I remember when visiting my grandparents in Uzbekistan (where I was born) in summer and there was like 41 degrees, it was horrible! i didn´t get out of the house.
I wonder- is it moist in perth? because if it is then it´s 100 times worse than when it´s super hot yet dry.... in Israel it´s super moist and no matter the weather it´s always yucky...
wish you cool days, and drink lots of water!

We have had sub-zero temps here and have been buried in over a foot of snow for a week. Today everything is melting, but that will brings floods :/

I'd much prefer a Polar Vortex than 44C! Ewwwww. :(

Correction, it got up to -59 Celsius (-75 Fahrenheit) in some places in the frozen tundra of Wisconsin.
