I find the weather is fairly conducive to productivity and extends to things like inspiration and the variant driving forces behind the creative process. So - with that in mind, greetings from Adelaide South Australia where our first summer heat wave has been a bit full on.
Sunday 12/1: 35.5 C / 95.9 F
Monday 13/1: 42.1 C / 107.7 F
Tuesday 14/1: 45.1 C / 113.1 F
Wednes 15/1: 43.1 C / 105.5 F
Thurs 16/1: expected high of 46 C / 114.8 C (last night's low was around 31 C at 6am)
So yeah, it's fucking hot here. Which is what happens when you situate a city about 300km south of the Goyder desert line, and it's a huge bloody desert up there. The record high for Adelaide is 41.6 C sometime in the 1930's and I'd expect it's going to be eclipsed today.
So, the end result of this in terms of productivity/creative process is something sounding sweaty, sleep deprived and languid.
