This is like walking into a hairdryer on full blast !!

Not whinging mind you. We knew what to expect - occasionally.

Hopefully, a change is set to blow through later this afternoon. Expected to be 28-30 tomorrow down here - we can handle that.

It's not been that bad in Coogee. We have a min/max thermometer outside and it hasn't got above 33 degrees here today. It's dropping now and currently only about 27 outside.

You're probably right (on both counts ) - the front is on its way so only a matter of time before it gets to you.

sydney was cool compared to central coast. Last I looked it was about 41.5 in williamstown (newcastle airport), compared to about 36 in sydney. Plus sydney cools down before central coast when a southerly comes through

Thanks for that Luke...... are you blowing the change up the coast?

Radar map from BOM shows a lot of showers kicking off just out at sea but going further out.
