Heatwave/Flooding - keep safe

[Charred]

People were walking their dogs today, they should be shot!

I went for a run at 3:30pm today instead haha. Temperature was between 41 and 43 degrees at that time depending on where you were. Wasn’t as bad as you would expect.

@krissy are you angry at me? i meant the owners should be shot, not the dog

Got to love a southerly! Sitting on the back deck, drink in hand and loving the crazy winds. I bunkered down in the air conditioning for the day.

Ha ha no not at all, I totally understood. I have actually pulled my car over to tell people to stop walking their dog on a hot road. I could literally see the poor animal trying to lift his paws off the heat, stupid owner was oblivious to the fact it was burning the poor dog’s pads.

OK, so we’re moving back to global warming? For the record, I don’t feel guilt yet. Still thinking about the 6m feral cats who’s only enemy is Aboriginal trackers with rifles. Hello Albo.

You southerners are sweating it out with fires and such, whilst are having a pretty decent wet season up here. I’ve recorded 625mm since December started.
The people a few hours south have had a couple of hundred more

That's 2 and a half feet on the old scale. What does that look like for you? How do you prepare for that?

Generally, Jan and Feb are the real wet months, so what we’ve had is unusual.You get a lot of washouts especially on low level tracks and it makes my work more seasonal than I would prefer so we book in projects away from home during summer.
