You got cooling in your shed, T1?
In mine it regularly tops 45* when it's 35~38* outside. :shock:
If I want to work in my PlayPen, I just check current temp & add 10.
Yeah, air conditioning... the full flow type, in the big door and out through the opening flaps in the roof at the back end of the workshop :lol: Fans set up in work areas so the hot air at least dries the sweat a bit. The office has an air con and for some strange reason the outlet is right behind my computer..... seem to spend quite a bit of time on the computer on the hotter days 8-)
Went up stairs to look for an extension cable, didn't last long before I decided I didn't need it that bad after all, it's a tad warm up there.
You know it's getting hot when you need to run the tap for a few mins before washing the hands under it so you don't get scalded. It was one of those novelty things on the return trips to Lake Illawarra, turning the tap one for a drink of water, you could make coffee from the first few litre here at the moment.

Have a look at the map in this news story and take heed of the warnings.
Sunday is sounding like a very dangerous day in parts of NSW

Parks shut down: No camping, bushwalking, riding
National parks in the high fire dangers areas across the state were being shut down so fewer people might be caught out.
"We don't want people camping, we don't want people bushwalking, we don't want people out there four-wheel driving or riding their motorbikes through at risk areas — the risk is real," Mr Fitzsimmons said.

Maybe that's part of it keep people out of the Parks and they can't start fires.
