Half of Boiling Point

Today, Melbourne nearly reach half of the boiling point temperature for water. Broken its' all time record for the hottest day ever!

With mercury topping 46.4 celsius, it's not a fluke! Plus, the strong winds about it made things a whole lot miserable!

I tried to feel the temperature by stepping out of my A/C office, man I feel like in an oven! A sauna can't really match it! You can smell the burning smell as well probably due to the raging bush fires.
The city hit 46.4 degrees at 3.04pm - the hottest day since the Bureau of Meteorology started keeping records 150 years ago.

The previous record was 45.6, set on January 13, 1939 - a day otherwise known as Black Friday.

Other top temperatures around the state include 47.6 at Hopetoun airport (2.30pm), 47.1 at Geelong airport (2.40pm), 46.8 at Laverton (2.41pm), 46.4 at Longerenong in the Wimmera (2.30pm), 46 at Mildura (2.35pm) and 46.3 at Swan Hill (2.30pm).

Unbelievably HOT!

However, the hottest recorded temperature ever in Victoria is 50.7 Celsius in Mildura recorded in 1906.

Thank God, cool change has come! It's still over 29 celsius now but it's better than over 46 celsius!
