Does it get hot & humid often on the SW coast Allan?

I expect humid conditons in the sub-tropics, but January always floors me.... at the rate we're going, I expect February should also be humid :-(

Just wondering....... isn't there a place near you where you could hire a wheelbarrow for a few days? Bunnings have a hire shop.

Scozz, a max of 29 forecast for today, and it is already 31C. Not humid at the moment but the clouds are beginning to form :-(

The temps this weekend have all exceeded the forecast maximums, and we have bee trying to spread 6 cu metres of gravel on our front verge. It's nearly all done but we can't finish until we get a wheelbarrow.

Once spread we then have to compact it

nearly noon

not a good day

There's a helicopter circling...... which means only one thing to me..... there must be a shark! Our beach is on my avatar.

It's flat calm out there, so there should be nobody surfing.

Perishin' in Old South Wales, and hot & sticky in New South Wales.

It's just gone 10am, and the temp is 28C in the shade :-(

The lizards are all hiding in the undergrowth.

I used to live in South Australia, it got hotter there, but a dry heat.

I'm in far north NSW, and the humidity is awful in January.

I'm wearing a sarong & knickers!

When is that storm getting here?

well for the record it's perishin' here in South Wales :-(

The humidity is definately worse than the heat.

Can't stand humidity. That's probably why we British moan when our temps get to the mid 20s or higher. It's much easier to tolerate dry heat......as long as you don't get dehydrated.

It's hot here too Scozz - very humid. We don't normally get such hot weather without a southerly change coming through but it's not happening :-(

in the north east of England its freezing :-(

:-(

It's 8 in the morning, and already 26C :-( :-(

This is the hottest summer we've had since we moved here. Very rarely does the temperature go above the low 30s. This week we've had well over 35C.

A thunderstorm is predicted for later today, hopefuly it will cool things down a bit......... but if the storm brings rain, and more heat :-( it will be horribly humid.

We used to live much further south, where the summer temperatures rose to well over 40C, but without the humidity. Not sure what's worse!
