@dailymailau: 'The roads definitely do melt, that's an actual thing,' Marble Bar Community Resource Centre coordinator Bazz Harris said. 'We deal with it for six, seven months of the year – it's tough going...Most of the locals lean into it – people will walk 100 metres down to the general store and they make sure they've got a hat and a bottle of water.' 'The trick is to get a cool night's sleep, get six, seven hours in a cool environment at night, and you can deal with the day,' Mr Harris said. Last summer, the town endured a 26-day stretch of maximums above 43C, and during its most famous heatwave in 1923–24, there were 160 consecutive days above 37.8C (100F). #wa #australia #Summer #heat #fyp

y'all don't realise the ozone is thinner above Aus then the rest of the world.. it may get to the same/higher in some other countries, but in Aus you get that heat + more radiation and burning skin within 20-30 minutes

I don't think people are aware of how dangerous the heat and UV rays are in Australia. The ozone layer is literally the thinnest in our country, and the sun strikes us more frequently. More UV radiation penetrates the ground due to Australia's thinner ozone layer, particularly in the west. The sun is more direct because we are closer to the equator than many other nations.
