In order for a Northern Hemisphere city to match that, we’d need to see 100 degree highs each day starting on the 1st of May (31 days prior to summer), and go till the 8th of Oct (38 days after start of fall).
Not even Death Valley has matched that (the greatest number of consecutive days with a maximum temperature of 100° F or above was 154 days in the summer of 2001).

Noticed that the BoM have taken down their “Australian Climate Extremes” history page…
