Surviving the Heatwave

With Perth enduring it's worst ever December heatwave, I closely monitored the temperature inside my home each day. I was keen to know how rapidly an impoverished household with only a feeble fan to cool them would cope. 

Date	Indoor Temperature AM	Outdoor Temperature Max	Indoor Temperature PM
12th Dec	26C	37C	28C
13th Dec	27C	39C	30C
14th Dec	29C	40C	31C
15th Dec	30C	41C	32C
16th Dec	30C	41C	32C
17th Dec	30C	38C	32C
18th Dec	30C	33C	31C
19th Dec	29C	34C	30C

The verdict - after two or three hot days (over 35C), the room temperature hots up to 30C to 32C. And it takes a couple of milder days to cool down again.
