Note:
“Many heat related records were broken in the exceptionally hot ‘Angry Simmer’ of 2012-13. The year 2013 included Australia’s hottest day, week, month and year averaged across the country… While [this summer] was truly off the charts, there is further evidence that Australia’s capital cities are already experiencing longer, hotter and more frequent heatwaves. The average intensity of heatwaves in Melbourne is now 1.5 degrees hotter and they occur on average seventeen days earlier than they did between 1950 and 1980.”
Gergis, Sunburnt Country…, MUP, 2018, p. 184 - 185
