How hot is Queensland?

Today has been very uncomfortable. It's 34°C. With Brisbane's famous humidity it feels like 38°C. (That's 100°F). People have been sharing this:

It's great that we agree it's really hot. I also hope for two other things:

1. That we remember this painful heat when we are making decisions that affect the planet. Choosing our transport, choosing Greenpower or choosing our politicians.

2. That we remember that (technically) this is not even a hot day. When experts talk about us having 28-65 hot days here in future summers (or 312 in Darwin) they are talking about days even hotter than today. Surely that's worth doing something about.
