Another hot one in Victoria today. Remember public libraries are places where you can enjoy free aircon, as well as food courts and shopping centres. If you see any homeless people on the street today remind them that they can go to libraries and buy cold water for them

For yourselves, keep your curtains closed, windows closed where possible, limit movement. Drink LOTS of water. You have my permission to turn your aircon on today. If you have to go outside, stick to the shade and give yourself twice as long to do anything so you don't overheat

Cold showers are amazing, as are fans (if you have one) blowing over cool wet skin. Be generous with yourselves today, it's ok to not cope with the heat and everything else that is going on
