...and I mean that literally and not being vain!
I am hot and literally steaming from all the sweat that's evaporating from my body! Now I know what it must feel like roasting inside an oven! It's in the high 30 degrees Celsius here out in the western part of Sydney, Australia and looks to be the same for the next few days with the temperature nudging into the early to mid 40s. This weekend will be so hot that many will be hitting the beaches and pools....and summer has not even officially started yet!
If this is what the weather is bringing us now, with "Catastrophic" bushfire warnings already in place on these extreme hot days, I dread in finding out what the actual summer season will bring. Bushfires are to be expected, but I'm praying that they will not be massive infernos devastating towns close to them. Whether the weather is hot or cold or in between, it seems that Mother Nature is not showing any kindness when she decides to be devastatingly destructive. Perhaps it's a sign that we need to start looking after this planet of ours before it's too late. At this point in time, we do only have one sustainable planet that we can live in.
On top of this heatwave, I dearly hope that many who will be outdoors enjoying the warm, if not hot weather in the next couple of days, with others more to come this summer season, will be protecting themselves from the sun and heat with proper clothing, hats, and sunscreen and plenty of water/fluids to keep themselves hydrated at all times. Take care and be safe!
But those who do not prefer the outdoors will most likely be enjoying themselves inside air-conditioned shopping centres and will most likely come home with a few unwanted purchases on hand. And I will be one of those many! But hey, that's what shops are for, to entice us into buying unnecessary items. LOL!
So for the next 3 or so months, the Summer season will surely bring hot and steamy days and nights!
