Heatwave in the Cape
Dit was vandag so warm, my hond jaag die buurman se kat, maar altwee stap.
Hier staan n Citigolf hier buite in die son, sy fan gaan kort kort aan, maar hy't nog nie gestart nie.

Re: Heatwave in the Cape
Replaced a roof today .... the sun was so fierce I think I have arc-eyes!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Heatwave in the Cape
Jees, are you guys really from the cape?? This heat is nothing new for this time of the year. The past few years the weather patterns have changed somewhat, but this hot days are Cape Town weather. I remember when I was younger how plastic stuff used to melt, like in the pics, behind the back seat of my moms beetle.

But some of us were a lot younger then and even used to suntan in that weather.... now its a different ballgame, drive airconditioned vehicles and can't cope with the heat anymore...

Re: Heatwave in the Cape
We didnt have HOT days, we had fairly windless days... Summerdays are always hot in CT, its just the S/E wind that cools the place down..

Re: Heatwave in the Cape
van watter "heat wave" praat julle ?
ons kom nou net terug van n paar weke in die Kgalagadi, elke dag in die 40's - in die skaduwee !
Ek geniet nou die bietjie koelte hier in die Kaap, en julle praat van "warm" ...
ERGSTE was in Augrabies, mid 40's in die dag terwyl dit bewolk is. dit was lank na middernag to is dit nog meer as 30 EN bedompig !! Meestal het dit eers teen 4 uur in die oggend afgekoel.
