The normal summer time temperature is around 85º F for Sydney.

I am on the south-west fringe of Sydney and I too experienced temperatures like that in our summer on a few days a year at home.

I usually experienced extreme hot for just one day and very rarely as consecutive days.

Thayne, I know how you feel as like on fire and you should be having an A/C running to cool you down.

For me, summer will be here as from October and February as the hottest month for here.
