43C in Sydney today! 43C! :shock:
But with strong winds later in the day, the preparations for the potential bushfires is like the battening down you see before a hurricane, even in the city.

7.30am and the thermometer is reading 26C already. No surf today, but I think I'll be just sitting in the ocean cooling off later 8)

There have been reports on the news about all the fires in NSW & Tas, hope no-one has been affected. 43C will do absolutely nothing to help the situation.

(Read as light-hearted but disgruntled) Yeah big guy, so I live in South Wales Uk and though the temperature of the air this time of year is freezing and the ocean water temperature is like seven Celsius, I piss in my wetsuit to keep myself at thirty seven degrees - and I have no sharks to worry about eating . . . me so there !
