TO MELT OR NOT TO MELT

That is indeed the question a lot of us are asking today in Perth.  Yesterday was hot (38C) and today, tomorrow and the next day are forecast to be 41C (105.8) with Wednesday cooling down to 40C.  Then a few days respite in the low 30Cs and one wonders which way the temperature gauge will go from then on.  We still have the dreadful month of March to survive before much hope of cooler weather.

The picture of the sun from 'clipart' makes me think the sun really is angry with us 'cos that is how it feels if you venture outside and it's not the best inside either unless you have airconditioning, or at the very least overhead fans.

We are warned to look after ourselves during this heatwave which reminds me I must go and have another glass of water.  Keeping hydrated is the instruction but as I am not moving around very much, hopefully that is not likely to happen.

Unfortunately our eastern states cousins will probably cop some of this heatwave in the days to come so to my friends over there....do try and keep cool if you can. 

We are fortunate here in the West that so far any fires have been reasonably small ones but with this constant heat and a forecast of fairly strong easterly winds anything could happen but we can only hope that all will be well.
