Good noose.

We (the wife and I) don't need to invest in a plasma cutter today.

Just hold the plate to the right angle, and the SUN will cut it.

46 degrees (C) inside the water bag. 50 up the track!!!

B-Geesus it is warm. And more to come for the next three days, and yesterdee was just as 'ot.

Ain't that good noose.

I see it clearly ... the big shed roller doors up, a gusting hot northerly, bitumen melting from the street and sticking to the workshop floor, smoke rising from the arc one third done on a 3m diameter pipe flange, hi-vis overalls, welding jacket, gauntlets, bucket on head, lock on beer fridge ... chewy holding the thermometer back to 43 degrees.

More to come.

Cheers, Mike.

Hey,

Australia mate, Im in Victoria and Anvil is in South Australia.

It wasnt that extreme, adflo on, big ass fans blowing hot air, but we get free icypoles and these "cool band" things that you soaking in water and put round your neck.

46 C is 115 F

The last three days have been over 43 C, and we have two more days expected at 46 C. Yesterday was 46 C and today cooled off to 45 C.

It got down to 39 overnight.

Takes more than icy poles, free or not.
