What's the temperature where you are???

I live in the Australia of North America. Hm. That actually makes a lot of sense when you look at it that way.

Marble Bar, Western Australia.

The town burned itself into the history books when residents endured the longest heatwave ever, anywhere in the world. For 160 days in 1923 and 1924, Marble Bar recorded temperatures that breached the 100 degrees Fahrenheit heatwave mark, while the hottest days on record were in January 1905 and January 1922, when it reached a sweltering 49.2 degrees Celsius.

To enjoy the best of the weather, visit between April and September. It's the ideal climate for exploring the area's natural wonders and gold rush history.

Today, Marble Bar is home to around 410 residents and healthy gold, silver, copper and jade mining operations. In its mining heyday, it boasted a population of 5,000, following the discovery of gold in the early 1890s, when pioneers named the settlement after a formation of marble-like jasper nearby.

34C (93F) at 8.58AM here on the west Coast of Aust.
Just a bit warm - but reasonable for the time of year.
Yes I am willing to give you a couple of degrees of my warmth.

That would be most appreciated

I think we figured it out. For the moment, we have heat. No fireplace (gee, I miss my wood stove,) but electric heaters on the pipes, just in case it quits again before DB, the electrician gets here, tomorrow!

Ooooo an electrician - oh how handy! I need my barn re-wired

Glad you have heat.

You don't know how comforting it is to know that there's warmth elsewhere in the world, right now. It reminds me that Winter won't last forever, despite how it seems at the moment!

The weather anomaly map is how many degrees away from the norm the temps are predicted to be. Still cold for us here in the east of the continent.

A bit of rain and the corellas have landed. I wish I could capture the full scope of their numbers but they love landing along the highway. This was taken near the local pool. Along the highway it looks like someone has gone wild with tissues.

6.50p.m.19C, heavy cloud cover and some rain. Hoping for a bit more tonite after last nites flop.
