An ‘Intense’ Four-Day Heatwave Is Coming To Barbeque The Eastern States Like A Rotisserie Chicken
In devastating news for your armpits, it looks like the east coast will be copping a four-day heatwave. A scorching, revolting long weekend gifted to you by the sun, if you will.
According to Weatherzone, Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne will bear the brunt of the “intense” hot n’ heavy conditions.
Things will start getting balmy in Brisvegas and Sydney on Thursday as temperatures move into the mid-thirties, but the latter should have a bit of respite on Friday.
And by “respite”, I mean temperatures in the low thirties. It could be worse, but if you’re a sweaty Betty like me (it’s a natural bodily function, OK!), temperatures around the 32C mark still feel stanky.
The alleged “respite” is short lived, however, as parts of Western Sydney could top 40C on Sunday — the second time this month the temperature has reached the big four-oh. A truly cruel manoeuvre from Mother Nature on what is meant to be a day of rest.
A high-pressure system is causing heat to build over inland Australia.
The hot air is now being dragged over eastern Australia.
Elevated fire dangers are expected due to hot, dry and windy conditions.
