Oh please let their be Al Gore sized icebergs drifting around Center Field.

On the sunny side of the planet we have a Heatwave making the Lamestream media froth manically! Yet in January 1939 it was very hot across eastern Australia. Obviously pre adjustment and thus forgotten by the BOM.
“The highest reading for Canberra ever
recorded was 108.4 degrees at
3 p.m. on January 10, 1939……..
…….Incidentally, the 1939 heat-
wave established the standing
maximum temperatures for
Adelaide, Melbourne and
Sydney, namely Adelaide
117.7 on January 12, Mel-
bourne 114.1 on January 13
and Sydney 113.6 on January
14.—The Editor, The Can-
berra Times.] January 1959.

For the metric people in Celsius it’s
Canberra 42.4
Adelaide 47.6
Melbourne 45.6
Sydney 45.3
Of course these should have been broken in the El Niño of the late 80’s and especially due to UHI since then. My point is while its freezing in North America in January, it’s always bloody hot in Australia.
Awesome.. thanks Andy; letting my friends know here (in Adelaide)
I doubt it will be as long as these heat waves. Still, 4 days plus 38C is a bloody hot week. Hope you have aircon Dave. Cheers.
“ADELAIDE, Monday. 13 February 1939.
The temperature in Adelaide to-day
was 111.1 degrees, and it appears likely
that the record of the summer 1857-58,
when the century was reached on nine
successive days, will be broken.
To-day was the seventh day over a
century.”

the significance of any heat wave is proportional to how many warmists are there to experience it..
Melbourne Feb. 7 2009 115.52F
Sydney Jan. 18 2013 114.44
Adelaide may be broken in a couple of days, stay tuned.
Thanks Jeff,
I couldn’t be bothered looking through BOM stats to find it.
You’d think if the CAGW thing was real and not just a UHI incident, that there would be whole weeks of heatwaves hotter than 1939. But there isn’t. And 1939 is conveniently missing from BOM stats now. As is 1908, 1898 and a few other years with monster heatwaves up to nine days long.
The forecast for NYC shows a temperature of 39 degrees. I wouldn’t call that unusually cold.

NCEP is predicting closer to single digits F.
Never mind Christie, what possessed the NFL owners?
Bad forecast
It was an excellent forecast. Very cold for weeks before and after the Superbowl.
