Adelaide got to 45.7 degrees today, the hottest day for 70 years and 0.4 degrees shy of Adelaide's record of 46.1.

Melbourne got to 42 degrees today.

The hottest temperature today was 47 degrees in NSW.

The forecasts:
Adelaide
Thursday: 44
Friday: 41
Saturday: 40
Sunday: 40
Monday: 39
Tuesday: 38
Wednesday: 38

Yep, coming down at least, but 38 degrees after a stinking hot week is much the same as 42 or 43 degrees once the house heats up.

Melbourne
Thursday: 43 and windy.
Friday: 43
Saturday: 35
Sunday: 31
Monday: 34
Tuesday: 29
Wednesday: 29

Relief on the way on Saturday.

However, tomorrow's forecast is ominous. Hot and windy after almost a month of zero rainfall. It is conditions like these that give bushfires. Dangerous bushfires. Already it's been compared to the Ash Wednesday bushfires of 1983 when 73 lives were lost.
