Thunderstorm raging right now in Perth

About time and all. Nary a drop of rain has fallen over the last month. With only 4 mm, 1/64", having fallen since January 1st.
What with Perth's temperature yesterday reaching 39C - 102F, today's top will only reach 29C - 84F.
Enough rain will fall today so as I will not need to water the garden.

39C is way too hot! Can't get anything done outside at that temp!

@swirlie 39 is not so bad. Dry heat here in Western Australia.
Becomes unbearable at 42 and above. Can feel my face burning and almost sliding off. 😄

Dry heat? That's what they say in Alberta Canada in the middle of winter at -40C... "oh, but it's a dry cold".

I remember a couple of summers back when a small town in the middle of the Canadian Rocky Mountains burnt to the ground when the temp hit 49C. Check out Lytton, British Columbia for the story.
