Keep in mind, I know Phoenix can probably put these numbers up as well for 3-4 months straight, but this was a HUMID heat! Really hated it. Although §AB is more than welcome to switch with me, oh wait....I don't like annoying rain almost all the time, so sorry...
Too beautful for words. That's what a summer ought to be.
All the idiots on the nazi weather forums who freak out at the one 40C day and 25C night we get per year could learn a thing or two about what a real summer is.
Did you ever see Pitch Black 2 where the sun rises and it goes up like a thousand degrees in a few seconds and people burn up.... I think they filmed that scene here.

Crematoria in the Chronicles of Riddick? Perfect place for SAB.
Ironically, one of the characters (forget who), says "If I owned Crematoria and hell, I'd rent out Crematoria and live in hell." which General Sheridan said about Texas
Adelaide heatwaves seem to be impressive even for Oz.
I think their record highest high and low is something like 115/97 F;
sounds like mild heatwave in the SW USA's low deserts. (Palm Springs CA, Phoenix, AZ...)
Most cities in Australia have never recorded a low at 90+ F.
I can only imagine what a low of 97 F would feel like,
accompanied by humidity under 40% and steady desert winds... occuring in the dark, just before sun-up.
It is! To get a low that high is very remarkable, by our standards, and, even more so by coastal standards, but the much lower humidity makes it more far more bearable than a humid one! If Sydney got a low of 35oC with over 75% humidity *shudders*
In fact where state capital "extreme minimums" are concerned, Adelaide tops the list.

I don't think that could happen. You'd have to shatter some local or Aus. dewpoint records (but Dubai on the other hand has had world record dewpoints of aorund 34-35C, equivalent to 35C with 100% humidity).

Highest heat index recorded is 78°C from a dewpoint of 35°C and a temperature of 42°C in Saudi Arabia. Ouch.
