Re: Life in a blast furnace
Adelaide has been hotter this summer by several degrees. The last time it was this hot in Adelaide was 2009, but thankfully it's blown out now and it was 22 yesterday! So all over the place. 39 forecast with rain for Thursday, so that'll be a delight.
As I have said, the Adelaide climate is the easiest to live with that I have known, except January and February can dish up a little unpleasantness every now and again.

Still bringing up that news story! 
The media will make up all sorts of alleged 'news'...it doesn't mean of course that the people in Melbourne were traumatised by this event or thought it particularly special - when you've had 36C at 3am why would you!? I remember reading in the Brisbane Courier Mail a story about scorching 28C heat! Yes, yes we know...it's much hotter in Adelaide...kudos to those tough Adelaide folk for sticking it out!
Adelaide has an average of 2-3 days a year above 40C by the way...source, BOM.

In for a penny, in for a pound. I haven't seen any weather in Adelaide, Melbourne or in the middle this year that is any different to previous years.
What I have seen is ridiculous headlines declaring that a day time high of 32 is SCORCHING, which clearly it isn't. It's perfectly normal for January.
Just the press having nothing better to say.
Most of the med is around 30 all summer. Didn't we all go there on hols for the warmth?
