Melbourne is melting!!!

Just when you think Melbourne's summer temperature should be in the low 30 degrees, think again!

Melbourne is officially in it's hottest-known heatwave since Tuesday after the temperature again broke through the 43 degrees mark. It was back in 1855 when Melbourne has had 3 consecutive days above 43 Celsius. Should I feel lucky to be part of this "memorable" occasion? :D

Because of the blistering heat, there were power failures across Victoria, local train network had to cancel at least 1,300 services to date, a number of highly seeded tennis players had to "retire" from the Australian Open, etc. The list goes on!

Just when you thought it can't get any worse, my car temperature was showing 50 degrees this afternoon. Lucky that I had all my windows well tinted, at least keeping some of the heat out.

At this scorching temperature, it should be made legal to go nude in public! :D
