Stayed up late last night waiting for the Rogue class announcement for World of Warcraft's next expansion.

I want numbers. Tell me the temperature and I will compare it to the summer temperature here. We shall see how hot it really is...
I know it's a cliche but wet or dry? I'm really curious. I know Australia is hot. My mother was in Perth once and she told me something like 110 in the shade.
Our summers are always dry (this is in South Australia), I hear it's much more humid north in Queensland. It gets to 115F, on the worst days you see it get to around 120. This isn't even in central Australia where the desert is...
I would take 110 F to 115 F dry heat over high humidity 90 F + weather any day. Dry heat is by far more tolerable. I'm a Southwestern Desert Rat who lives right next to The Great Dismal Swamp, I know.
I agree, humidity is far worse then dry heat. Far, far worse. Especially here where it barely rains once a month...

When I first moved back to Virginia, I lived in a big house on an inlet. I watched the egrets and sea galls every chance I could. When the tide went out, they would hunt crabs in the mud. It was wonderful to just sit and watch them. I always felt so peaceful and relaxed doing that. Fascinating Creatures.

That sound very relaxing to watch.
Kentucky wasn't really one of the first places I'd think cranes would live in.

When I lived in California at Vandenberg AFB there were a lot of Blue Herons. My (then) husband and I were watching one on our lunch break as we were driving around base. We stopped the car briefly because one was digging about very close to the road and we were curious. We watched saying "ooooo, ahhhh" sort of things, fascinated, then it drags a struggling gopher out of a hole in the ground and swallows it whole. 
We skipped lunch.
