Having a problem with scanning the Temperature/Dew Point graph so hope it comes through.

Finally cracked a 50 yesterday after many near-misses!
Andamooka has come in with spot on 50.0C 😊
Another chance today with a few places expecting 48-49C.

Of the long-term sites I track, there have been all-time records at Ceduna, Mildura, Dubbo (equal), Tibooburra and Bathurst (Cabramurra missing by 0.1), and January records at Nhill and Laverton.

Here's a map for the spatially-minded, summarising some of what's happened to date.
At a state-wide scale, and provisionally, Victoria (Mallee) surpassed its previous warmest temperature on record on Tuesday while NSW (Upper Western) equalled its second warmest on record on Wednesday, with temperatures not seen since January 1939.
Some medium-term records are also falling at alpine stations, both for overnight minimums and daytime maximums.

Climate Data Online on the Bureau website normally updates reasonably quickly (faster than Daily Weather Observations, which usually updates around 11am local time).
Not the greatest of sites, but the gravel surface is at least representative of "natural vegetation" in the region. The construction equipment doesn't look like it's a permanent feature 😊.
I wasn't surprised to see this given the Roxby Downs report.

Hi Tim,
Where did you find a value that wasn't rounded at this time of day?
I anticipate that Andamooka is not on the list of stations that Blair pays particular attention to. 👀

Gavin,
I remember back in the late 80s Maree’s parents, who lived at Robinvale at the time, visited us for Christmas – we lived in Melbourne at the time. They left for home one day in early January I think it was. That evening in the Melbourne Herald there was a headline saying that Mildura’s maximum temp that day had reached 47 degrees. Robinvale is 80kms south east of Mildura so the temp would have been similar there.

Hi Chris,
That is correct. A whole range of stations in South Australia, Northwest Victoria and inland NSW and South West Queensland broke records, some going back to 1939 ones. Extraordinary event.

Gavin,
My son, who lived in Mildura until a couple of years ago, tells me it reached 48.6, an all-time record, there on Tuesday. I heard on Channel 7's Sydney news that it hit 49.6 at Renmark on Tuesday.
