News is just a non-stop Psy-Op now Sydney is getting five warm days in a row and the Sydney Morning Horror is warning that it could be deadly. Even newspapers in Belgium think their readers need to know there’s a warm spring in Australia — 10 – 15 degrees above average. It’s not even a record. Not even “the hottest in history” — just by golly, a bit warmer than a similar September heatwave, you know, nine years ago.
It was 35.6 degrees in September 2000 — so after 23 years of global warming, it’s not even hotter.
Driving a car could be deadly today too, but we don’t put it in a headline. The psychological effect is to generate fear of warm weather.
What is exciting is that Sydney didn’t even reach 32C last summer, at all, so after one of the least warm not-hottest 12 months on record, Sydney is finally getting some beach weather. But don’t mention that in 163 years there has not been a longer period where Sydney didn’t break 32 degrees C.

As a North American, I was under the impression that it got hot in Australia. I guess not.
32 (89F) is a temperature where it is nice to go for a swim if you are in the mood, but hardly mandatory.
Being American raised but now living in Ontario I am amused at varying perceptions of “hot”. This part of Ontario has 3-8 months of winter, depending on how one wants to define winter (having snow on the ground would qualify in my books, but if one is hard core and defines it as when it is safe to drive your truck on most lakes we can probably argue for 3 months). This is followed by spring, which, in my opinion, is followed by fall (our leaves begin to change in August).
One can select the hottest two to eight weeks and call them summer, but they would not pass for summer in any place I’ve lived in the States.
As one priest I know observed, “global warming can be nothing but good for Canada”.
It was a nice day. I was terrified. Never before have I been so close to death.
You can’t go to the beach. Those that do could get skin cancer and die. Better shutter the entire country and none of this traveling stuff, you could be in an auto accident.
35.6C? Some August days in Pensacola, Florida, were hotter than that this year. WPNN (a local radio station) was routinely forecasting temperatures up to 100F (37.8C).
So, does Sydney have that infamous Florida humidity to go with the heat?
I’m seriously worried about the “heatwave”; I almost broke a slight sweat.
Keep in mind that Australia is coming out of winter into spring when we're coming out of summer into fall. Always add or subtract 6 months to figure out what the weather should be like there now (September here - 6 months = March weather in Australia). And as a reminder if you're from the southeast -- the 1993 blizzard we'll talk about the rest of our lives was in March. LOL
Nothing but a bunch of climate clingers, hanging onto their weather reports. Climate clingers.
I’ve had little exposure to the southeast, although I did spend a couple of years in the mid-South.
In my estimation 95 is beach weather. 89 is a nice time to head to the lake, but one can also mow a lawn.
What struck me was that it had been 14 months since they had topped 89. That would be like Alabama having no summer. Even where I grew up, fairly close to the coast in Oregon in what we thought of as a cool/temperate climate, one would expect it to top 90 at least a few times in the summer.
Abbo = Aboriginese?
a native austrailian?
