Yeah, true.
I can't handle another summer here - i'm moving across the country to escape the intense Perth summers.
The freaky thing is that when i was growing up - only 20-odd years ago - summer here was invariably dry heat. Maybe a summer storm or two per season - but these days, hot summer days are virtually always humid and muggy.
I can deal with the dry heat better - at least it's cooler in the shade - and when the sea breeze comes in (we call it the "Fremantle Doctor", because it blows off the ocean (Fremantle being a town/suburb on the docks) and cools the place down by mid afternoon.
But each year it seems to get more humid, and the sea breeze has less cooling effect (if it comes in at all) so you sweat through the night. Gets old by February, which is typically also the hottest month here. It's relentless!
And the worst thing is when a strong Easterly wind blows here at night; it's air blowing straight in off the desert inland, and means "it's going to be fucking hot tomorrow".
Some people love it, but i'm a pale-skinned fucker.
It's been scary to witness a climatic change so dramatic in just a few years...ominous.
