Ok so it's been really freaking stinking hot since we got back (and apparently before we got back as well).
In January there was a week where we had 40C days for like four days in a row. Hottest January on record. Our cooler was going nonstop for a couple of weeks straight.
The blue periwinkle went a bit crazy while we were away. This was about five weeks of growth. I ripped it all out and have been keeping it down, but is going to take a lot of effort to kill..
It got over 50C in the parked car on 18 January..
We had a very nice sunset on 27 January. I was at Chrissie's and Zac called me to come look. It was all over social media that night.
We have had a *lot* of thunder storms. On 30 January one went over, but most of the lightning was cloud lightning rather than ground lightning. It flashed *a lot*. I even captured this on my phone.
Today we had a dust storm. I'll append a pic here when I download them.
