(To the Editor of the Horsham Times.)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Sir,-The official readings of the Horsham Meteorological Observatory appear to read exceedingly high when compared with those of towns further north, and in previously hotter<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
district.<\/div>\n
At one time Dimboola possessed a very bad reputation as a hot place,- but now, it occupies a back position, and is quite a charming resort as compared with 120 degrees.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In view of the late controversy at the council table it would be interesting to compare Horsham’s readings, both ,the authorised and Ryan’s corner, with the authorised readings at Dimboola.<\/div>\n
I guess that. Ryan’s corner and Dim seems strange that the towns further north should just be a degree or two above or, below Dimboola, whereas Horsham’s’ “authorised” goes up like a balloon.<\/div>\n
If it would interest your readers a comparison could be made of the three readings. Dimboola’s,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
since the 1st to the 8th inclusive, are, -90, 101, 101, 101, 102, 102, 100, 105, 74, 79, 83, 90, 97, 103, 107, 110, 110, etc.<\/div>\n
This record is not taken in a beautifully cool municipal hall, like Warrnambool’s, but in the Government shade box. We write to try and establish Diniboola’s prestige as a heat rival to our now formidable antagonist, Horsham.-Yours, etc.,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
“COOL.”<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
