Last time I checked, if you assume 3.5C global warming, the numbers are likely to reach 50C by 2050.

That'd be a nice little last number synchronicity for when I sweat myself to death on the upstairs loo.

    Australian here: Oh, hello, back there in the past!

    Australia’s highest temperature last summer (December 2025 - February 2026) was 50.0°C, recorded in South Australia at both:

    Andamooka — January 29, 2026 Port Augusta — January 30, 2026

    Port Augusta’s reading was described as the farthest south that an official 50°C temperature had been recorded in Australia.

    And we're heading into summer again! Whee!
