Heat Wave is Not Exceptional<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
A cool change, coming from the west, should reach Melbourne some time tomorrow, said the Commonwealth Meteorologist (Mr Hunt) today.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
He added that northerly winds were sweeping right down the eastern side of Australia from the Gulf of Carpenteria, and there was a prospect of fairly widespread rain in the next 48 hours.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Whether the fall would extend to Victoria, however, could not yet be determined. It was a dusty, unpleasant day in the city, but Mr Hunt said that this quality of warmth for April was not exceptional.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Mr Hunt doubtless felt very cool when he spoke. He was in cream trousers and working in shirt sleeves.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
PREVIOUS RECORDS<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Not for three years has there been three successive days in April with the temperature over 80, as has been the case this week.<\/div>\n
On Sunday the maximum was 83.3, yesterday 83:9, and today It reached 84 at 2 p.m.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The record for April is 94 degrees, recorded on the 17th, in 1922, and the sixth In 1865.<\/div>\n
The record April heat wave is held by 1922, when from the 14th to the 17th the temperature varied from 84 to 94.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
