A thermometer on a piece of board is not a very accurate reading...you need something like a sling psychrometer to get an accurate reading..it has to be moving in the air space.
I did a job at West Chermside today..at 1pm it was 39.8C using a sling..an accurate reading. And what was I doing? Installing bloody air conditioning...the sweat was pouring off me. And more to do tomorrow

You should fly NORTH for the summer wouldn't have been more then 35c on the tropic of capricorn today and that sea breeze was to die for. FLY NORTH were it is perfect year round hey Anges jack

[aquarius]

Pinhead the thermometer is held on the post by a staple.....swinging free with air gap behind......I reckon this is accurate enough.....Its close to 11pm and the reading is a very warm 30 degress.
