Isn't this an excessive fork from the main article, I would suggest adding information to Adelaide at a similar level to Canberra, and redirecting this article there.-- nixie 03:27, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Besides in the last 31 years, on which dates/years were these temps recorded? JayKeaton ( talk) 13:42, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
I think this is misquoted from the source. The source seems to be talking global temperature not local. The BOM data while showing a trend toward hotter temperatures post 1980 or so does not appear to validate the assertion that "9 of the 10 hottest yearsin Adelaide occured since 2002" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.35.82.174 ( talk) 02:49, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
The record in 1939 is 117.7 F = 47.6 C. But some official BoM records refer to it as 46.1 C, e.g. http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/current/statements/scs17.pdf . Is there an offset due to different weather stations? And perhaps we should mention that, since as I type, Adelaide has gone past the old record of 46.1. Adpete ( talk) 03:30, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
The 1939 highest temp still stands as BOM are yet to homogenize the raw data from 24th Jan 2019... as noted, expect the value to change within the next 2 months. Mantasledge ( talk) 13:09, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
Adelaide's official weather station moved from Kent Town back to West Terrace in 2017 [1]. That means, for the highest maximum on 24-1-2019, the article should use the West Terrace reading of 46.6, not the Kent Town reading of 47.7. That is what is in the "Daily Weather Review" [2], and also secondary sources such as ABC news [3]. Adpete ( talk) 22:16, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
