Extreme weather – big freeze in Europe while tomorrow it will be 44degC here (111degF)

Written by Gary on January 10th, 2010

The climate sure is going crazy, after our devastating bushfires last summer with the record breaking temperatures and finishing the hottest decade on record for Melbourne, I had hoped this summer would not be as bad.

But as Europe is stuck in its worse freeze in 30 years, the areas near Melbourne are due to reach 44deg C again tomorrow.

ps. fortunately apart from a fire near Cann River, no major incidents of bush fires occurred this time but Melbourne equaled its record highest overnight minimum temperature set in 1902 of ~30.6deg C and its highest midnight temperature of 37degC.
