Sydney faces heatwave amid wildfire risk
Sydney, Australia, experienced a severe heatwave, with temperatures reaching 33°C, about 13 degrees above the usual average. The temperature at the city airport recorded 28.6°C, exceeding September's average by more than seven degrees. Strong, dry northwesterly winds, which turned into a storm in the morning, increased the risk of wildfires. Authorities issued a comprehensive fire ban and categorized the danger level as "extremely high," the second-highest level. This heatwave coincides with the influence of the strongest El Niño phenomenon in decades, which raises temperatures and causes drier conditions in southern Australia from September to November.
