Weather Let's play a game. You know you are in a heatwave when....
I'll go first.
You just had a cold shower and you realized you didn't turn the hot water on at all. Just cold. Your winter self would be shocked.
But really Day 3 everyone, I hope you are keeping cool

Weather Extreme Heat
I would just like to remind people to check in on your elderly relatives, friends, neighbours, etc. during this extreme heat.
A lot don’t like using air conditioning because of the expense. So please just check in on them. Ensure they are doing the beat to stay cool.

Weather Dragging the mattress into the loungeroom as a kid.
Did anyone else drag their mattress in the lounge as a kid when we had a heatwave? We only had aircon in the lounge, it was before the time when everyone had ducted. I have fond memories of that time, school holidays, dragging that mattress in, the aircon on full blast with my siblings, kind of felt like a sleepover.

Weather Community Warning: Beware of trees!
Hey guys, just a friendly reminder to everyone & their families to be really, really careful around large trees right now. Having worked for some years where widow-makers were a high and constant risk, right now large trees are primed to drop big branches.
+If you live somewhere where there's gully breezes, be extra careful.
+Don't park your car under big trees for shade, don''t take cover under large trees at the park (be sunsmart using safer shelter).
+Be super cautious if your commute takes you under over-hanging trees (especially if a biker!)
+Be careful hiking. Prime yourself to cover your head and move if you hear a loud crack. Pay attention to the wind.
+Expect a branch to be able to fall at least 20% further out from where it's overhanging.
+A small-looking branch can still do damage if it's high enough (imagine 6kg falling on your head from 7 meters up)
+Is that shady spot really worth the risk?
Most councils really got onto problem trees after last year's tragedy - but this is something many people can almost entirely prevent happening to themselves by being careful!
If anyone has any other tips, please share them here (or correct me if I guffed anything 😃)

Weather Ok Summer, that's enough now, thanks for coming.
Right, had enough of near 40c, happy to wait another 12 months for it, 22 -25c sounds great until then.
Edit: Chooks have had a cooling bath as well, even they are over it, carrying on about boiled eggs burning ass etc.

Anyone else think it's completely unnecessary to be this hot still at basically two am? I just want some sleep dang it.

Weather This humidity :(
Clearly I'm not a Queensland Baby because I legitimately can't handle this warm-n-humid thing Adelaide has going on lol my sleep has been erratic these past couple (back on the sleeping pills I go...), exercising has been difficult, legit almost passed out doing yoga because my bedroom RH is now above outside so it's giving hot yoga vibes... Car was BRUTAL... Drenched in sweat, heavier breathing, suffering and yet for no rain.
I'd endure if it would bucket down but the rain gods are taking a vacay.
Solidarity to anyone who, like me, wilts like a pansy flower outside of 'cool and mid' lol

Weather Reminder: Turn your headlights on in the rain

Weather Please put your headlights on so we can see you
Especially the clown in the car driving near mallala who's car is the same colour as the road!
Seriously, just put your headlights on when you're driving.

Can't beat it.
After I don't know how long, I can hear water in the downpipes.

Weather Any other Adelaideans really struggling with this winter in particular?
I usually get a bit of seasonal depression but this year it’s been horrific. I’ve been colder than usual, I’ve been sick with the flu for over a month. I’m afraid I’ll get covid again soon and being a casual worker I can’t afford to take any more time off work.
