I had to sleep with the doona on last night... 

Who is the doona? Good Mexican sort?

[rustynutz]

Nah, I was on my Pat Malone...hence the doona... 

[KylieR]

Windy as heck outside, same as yesterday, but a bit cooler. Didn't storm last night as I expected, just blew a gale.

There is a massive fire near Lake Eppalock, which is not too far from Bendigo, which is where I am located. The wind won't be helping the firies trying to put it out.

Water bed's been off for a week, nice and cool.

The temp got to just over 62c here around 2:30pm.today. I managed to cook an egg in a frypan on the concrete on my back patio during the heat wave.

I took some photos on my phone and will upload them tomorrow.

Farkin. hot.

Here are the photos of the hot day.

This one is when I first put the thermometer out on the back table.



This one is at about 2:30pm when the outsdie temp peaked.



Here's the egg I cooked in a frypay placed directly on the concrete slab. It took about an hour to solidify.



Here are a few of a large brach from a gum tree  that fell over our back fence in a wild storm two daya ago along with the busted clothes  line, which was the only damage.  I had only fininshed getting clothes off the line about two minutes earler as the storm was approaching very rapidly.

Fortunately,the branch lodged in the fork of another tree just outside our fence preventing it from smashing the fence.

[Surferdude]

Quick cut and polish will fix the  clothesline.

Bloody gums!

Thanks for the photos Rick, you were (kind of) lucky I guess...

Sorry Terry.. I thought it was a bit green for Rick's place but when I saw 62c on the thermometer I assumed they were Rick's photos as he mentioned that temp the other day..

Isn't it crowded enough in the doghouse, Rick-p.

It has now been raining heavily for about 3 hours this evening and the side road next to our's has been closed due to local flooding in a dip in the road. It is a bus route and normally a busy road so is causing problems. But nowhere near the scale of problems some parts of UK are experiencing.

Thanks for report, been watching it on the TV News, you are sure getting a hammering from the wind and rain. Our thoughts are with you, stay safe our British friends, wherever you are.   

I have relatives in Wiltshire, Berkshire, Essex and London, they are ok, not too near rivers.

[Phil №❶]

Yes, take care over there, chaps.

Sunny, 25.9 C forecast 30.0 C, I'm off to water the roses.
