I use to live in the Blue Mountains in Hazelbrook. I was convinced that the Emu Plains/Penrith area is one of the hottest places. No sea breeze and with a mountain the air is trapped. Wowsers 44.4deg is roasting. Can only imagine what the temps are like during the hot season of late Jan/Feb.

In winmalee I recorded 47'C directly in the sun and 38'c in the shade, and this evening had a smell of smoke from the bushfires north of the bells line, near bilpin.

The Car was telling me it was still 32degress in Penrith at 11pm last night, a few degrees hotter still towards the city.
Was about 30 out here when I went to bed a bit after 12.
