Currently drinking the worst coffee of 2017. Ordered a flat white, got a cuppachino, they're using @Drew-Sta favourite shitty White Horse beans, and it is more bitter than Phil Gould talking about the Auckland 9's.

41? Where'd you hear that? It's not going to top 38 over this whole supposed "heat wave" by most forecasts....32, 33 or 35 tomorrow depending who you believe. Perfect!

Why is it every time it gets hot in the Australian summer the media are shouting "heat wave"?

BOM says for Canberra 40 on Friday and 41 Saturday.

Local news is saying 38...either way cricket is going to be a pain, but I usually find them more accurate.

Then again all weather men are basically guessing

Skynews, wouldn't fancy playing cricket in that.

We've had quiet a lot of hot days up here but our humidity is pretty high. People keep whinging about the heat and the so called heat wave, well derps, it is summer

Comes around once a year

Humidity is so much better than the abysmal dry heat we get. Unless you're in the actual jungle where the canopy traps the heat, a bit of moisture keeps the heat down. Here it's basically like an oven, it just gets hotter and hotter and parches you easily....I love summer but at the same time summer in Canberra can be a bit much.

After doing a lengthy stint in Darwin words like "heat" and "humidity " will forever have a different meaning. Currently in a draught in the north island. Hot and dry but not ridiculous. Only difference here is having no ozone so the burn factor is always up a few notches and can really kick your ass I'd you don't prepare properly

Yeah I lived in Malaysia. Never ever hit 40, incredibly rarely over 35 (especially when you factor in the near constant breeze). KL is stinking hot but that's kind of an urban jungle effect, the heat gets trapped by the buildings and never really dissipates, especially in the older parts of town where everything is so close together

Give me Penang heat over Canberra heat any day. It could get a bit oppressive during the wet season but it was a lot cooler then too so it wasn't bad.

i don't know how the abbos slept outside in the middle of the day on the footpath with no shade, I couldn't even walk down the road to coles without needed a new pair of jocks and a shirt
