Be nice if they could share some of it over here,balance both here and Sydney out around 28-30c.The rain today is welcome for most though after those winds.Its part of el nino,drier there and windy and cool here.It may even settle down (ie plenty of rainfall) over there in high summer when heat lows develop due to the high sun.
