It's hot hot hot here - it was 36 and 39 on the weekend, 37 yesterday, 38 today and tomorrow, and no relief in sight: 36/34/35 after that. Not much in the way of sea breezes, and hot hot nights: it was still 35 at sundown last night. Not as hot as the hottest night on record (last week, with a minimum of 29.7 just after 3 am, after a daytime max of 43), but more persistent.
My poor chooks are not very happy, despite ice in their water, frozen fruit, and occasional dampening-down of their shade trees. Worse, though, there seems to be a new fire threatening lives and homes nearly every day. The fireys are working very, very hard in punishing conditions.
