I can vouch for the temperature in Kawerau- somebody else here measured 34 mid-afternoon. Whatever it was it was hot, and the pub was doing great business for a tuesday afternoon!

Kawerau was VERY hot – I measured 36C at my workplace Carter Holt Harvey Tasman Pulp Mill. Felt like an oven every time you left a building.
