20F Another day of no air movement, gray everywhere. We have an inversion.High Pressure on top of us.The mountains hold air in the valleys like its in a bowl. So the cold air sinks to the valley floor, the warmer air is higher up. Since the cities are also on the valley floor all the pollution gets trapped as well. Red air days!!! No fires in fireplaces, limited driving, etc..Forecast for the next 5 days is a 30 percent chance of snow on Thursday.That storm does not appear to be strong enough to break this.

Ugh. Sounds like stinky winter.
 
My family live in Sydney upsetmom as does Sarah. All the family have air conditioning thank goodness and Sarah has planned to spend the whole day in the library at the uni.

The reports of tomorrow being perhaps be the worst fire danger the state has ever faced and some areas facing catastrophic warnings is pretty horrendous.

I hope you fare well hun! Good luck!

Thanks Dusty

Smart thinking Sarah!!

Yeah we have air conditioning too.....and there's no way i'm not leaving the the house tomorrow.

Not long ago we all received texts... warning us about catastrophic fire dangers in our area.
 
Oh my...I hope it doesn't come to that!

You guys will be in my thoughts. :hug: We don't get those sort of temps up here, for us 35C is scorcher, we will be 33C tomorrow and I am dreading that! You will have to tell me to suck it up and deal it princess!

Well I have been told! :lol:

Busily building the bridge that I need to get over! :rof:

Good luck for tomorrow!

Please take care tomorrow and wed,I for one am not looking forward to the heat. My flat is at the base of a steep hill facing north west. My thermometer has not been under 34 in nearly two weeks plus I don't have air con at work. I am suffering pulmonary edeema at the moment and am on lasik. I becomes very difficult not getting dehydrated plus for some reason the questran is not doing its job and I am battling diahorreah most days so more dehydration. I am supposed to do a 24 hr urine collection next weekend...I wonder if tey'll take an IOU. Ron.
 
Good grief, you are going through the wars Ron. :(

Have you ever tried psyllium husks for the diarrhoea?

It has not been a good start to the season, with the destruction of life and property in Tasmania. I do hope that all our New South Welshmen and women remain safe tomorrow.
 
Well the sun is well and truly up and you can sense the heat already.

Good luck to everyone today...especially those is Sydney and the south of the state...the remainder of NSW and the rest of the country.

My thoughts and well wishes are with you! :goodluck::goodluck::goodluck:

Thanks Dusty I have tried most of the things for stopping diahorreah. My problem is that I had sternum to groin surgery for colon ca as well as gall bladder removal. I have so many adhesions that if I take the wrong thing I fall off the tightrope and finish up with constipation so bad I feel like I am going explode. I take metformin (type two diabetes from prednisone) and it is hard on the gi tract causing a lot of bloating and diahorreah. Immodium works but invariably results in constipation. The questran lite works most of the time....Ron.
 
It's overcast but hot...we usually get a sea breeze but not today...:(

Last night not only did we get texts but close to midnight the home phone rang
and there was a recorded message warning us...:eek:
 
we certainly don't have too much to complain about at the mo. Must say though, i had serious bog matters since xmas and a few days off the liquid feed so i don't notice the weather at the moment either. Questran and immodium stopped working for me too. The griping pains i got were as severe as the crohns pains lol. Finding the right balance was very hard too, before they really stopped working. but good luck Ron
 
It's still 38c.
It reached 42.7c with hot winds. Way too hot to go outside
There are plenty of bushfires but they're not too close to us.
Now waiting for a southerly change....:ylol::ylol:
 
The norwester has started blowing here now . We will get some heat tomorrow and they are saying for at least a week. I hope the fires are not as bad as previous years,keep safe..Ron.
 
23 degrees F here this morning but to go into the upper 30's today. No rain or snow. Sorry for all you in Australia and Argentina and other places living in heat advisories. I hate the heat and pray for you all for safety!!!:rosette2:
 
6 to 7C.Blue skies & sunshine.Great dog walking weather.I know it's a terrible day for all of you in Australia.Wishing you well.Our son lives in Perth,which is not as bad as the south & east,but works in Pilbara.May the rain gods smile down on you soon.
 
This heat is the pits! And no relief in sight, only getting worse! Ugh!

Today something strange happened. The sky turned this strange blue color, and we saw this weird yellow ball shining in the sky. The air pollution later lifted and our high temp.was 36F. It was a heat wave! Don't know if we can handle much more of this!
 
Thanks sanni. :)

Stella is Sarah's cat and we have the privilege of cat sitting her :lol: while she is between digs. So a three cat household at present!

Dusty. :cat:
 
Across the other side of the country to us but hoping to get some rain and relief from it!:

SEVERE CYCLONE NARELLE:
Check out this amazing photo taken from the oil and gas platform south of Barrow Island late yesterday as severe Tropical Cyclone Narelle approached. The cyclone is now a category four storm packing winds to 230 km/hr. A viewer sent this photo to Nine News Darwin.

Whoa! :yfaint:

My God,have mercy! That looks unreal! Never saw anything like it and hope I never do! Why is it that color?:eek2::eek2::eek2:
 
It is very windy and heavy rain moving in soon. I was supposed to go shopping, but think I'll put it off a day!!!To be 47 degrees today! That is warm for Jan. and Sunday in the 60's. Weirdest weather ever!!!:ghug:
 
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:stinks:
 
Uluru. :)

It is coloured that way from the red dust. That is the common colour of the dirt/sand in many parts of Oz. Especially the centre and Norh west of the country.

Kind of like the red clayey soils on Prince Edward Island. Sunny here today but we stayed below freezing
 
Dusty, that narelle cloud thing was on our news! glad we don't get those, lo.. Aside from that we just got very cold in Cornwall and my joints are playing up big time. couldn't pull the duvet over me last night, no strength in hands and the pain in the elbow too, omg. Couldn't brush teeth either, nor get a cup of tea to my mouth this morning. hot epsom salts baths here. Roll on summer, lol. Stay safe all.
 
63 degrees!!! It feels like Spring is here already. Weirdest weather all over. California is digging out of snow and ice!!! I think we had a pole shift!!!!:ylol2:
 
Kaysville UT. 5F In the last 48 hours we have had 2.5 feet of new snow. And the snow is not over yet. Lows tonight below zero.

I wish I could wave a wand and make your snow stop, make the heatwave and fires stop in Australia and Argentina and other loctions. It's crazy weather here for sure. We are to be in the 60's again tmoro in JANUARY!!!!! I
enjoy it, it is just so weird....:eek2:
 
I live on the east coast of Australia and it was 42c yesterday and about 30c today and tonight it is raining, can not work out this weird weather pattern
 
Apparently Alberta is having yo-yo weather, one day it's -26c the next it is 0c. I know we always joke about wait 5 minutes and the weather here will change but this is ridiculous!
 
Too rightSusan,
They have had temps hitting 5oc in wetern qld and similar in western NSW.. 33 houses gone last night at coonabarrabran and they almost lost the siding creek observatory. Very lucky there were no casualties. Never seen so many fires for so long. No real sigh of rain except for the monsoon starting to develop in far north Qld.Pity we can't drag it south,Hugs ron.
 
I agree with the pole shift theory!!! Everyone seems to have very strange weather at the moment. Freaky at times. of course i'm hoping for a summer this year, lol. We have rain but my sister 30 miles south has had snow. Living right on the north coast of cornwall we very rarely get snow because the air is quite salty.
 
12-30pm..........been snowing for a couple of hours,starting to lie now.It probably wont amount to much though ,rarely lasts more than a week

There was some sort of shift they said. Also the gravitational pull of the earth has been affected by our planets position and the suns too. Things are going on most people don't know about, but when you start looking things up you realize we do have problems right now.:eek::eek::eek:I mean, come on 23 volcanoes have erupted since the 1st of the yr.
