The tempreture is forcast to reach 41c.
Thats about 106f. in the old language.
While on the subject of weather, I read all the posts about how cold you are all having it over there, but someone explain to me how if it gets below 32f. it gets colder?
Surely, once you hit freezing there is nowhere else to go

You'd think, or at least when it hits 0, how can there be temps in the negative. Makes me very glad that I don't live up North anymore. 
106, makes me think of summer here, when I can't figure out why I don't live up North anymore. I like the temps in TX for about a week in Nov.

actually, 32 degrees has been feeling balmy in comparison to what we've been having. there is a huge difference. stepping outside when it's 0 or below with wind -- it hurts! you get that frozen tundra feeling.  32 is mild. we did 32 yesterday. i saw people outside without coats; it's sweatshirt weather here

Oh it gets colder Mate. It really matters what the wind speed is, that makes your skin freeze sometimes.

I knew a girl from Melbourne. When she was an exchange student here, she reported that when the temperature hit 50 degrees F in Melbourne, she'd wear a jacket when outside...exposed to the harsh elements!
All a matter of perspective.

If you use the Kelvin scale, you can never hit 0. 0 Degrees Fahrenheit is 255.22 degrees Kelvin. There's a loooong way to go.
