I went to work near Penrith late one night in early December many years ago and it had been a typical hot day there.
The was a concrete equipment hut with a 6 x 2 raised concrete slab as a 'verandah' and I went to sit on it, I couldnt because it was too hot and I had to get an old mat out of the car to put on slab.
This was around midnight so how bloody hot had it been for the slab to be still so hot ?

And that's why there are so many record temperatures - in 1939 they didn't have concrete everywhere, heck they didn't even have suburbs in some places.

The thermometers used at Observatory Hill are now surrounded by concrete that wasn't there during previous "records", even a Stevenson screen is not going to filter out latent heat buildup in concrete - but hey, it suits the global warming theocracy.

So, are you saying that too much concrete is the real cause of global warming?

I live 10k's east of Penriff. Last year we topped 45 degrees.

Had to drive in the afternoon. Needed gloves to touch the steering wheel.
