New Zealand's southern-most city, Invercargill, has had its hottest day on record - with the temperature hitting 32.3°C yesterday afternoon.

The MetService said the official temperature at Invercargill's airport at around 5.30pm yesterday reached 32.3°.

Before yesterday, the hottest temperature Invercargill had ever experienced was 32.2° in 1921.

A poster on another forum gets rather defensive whenever In'gill temperatures are mentioned. However - just as I can't deny Wellington's pre-eminent position among world capitals for windiness - Invercargill (and NZ for that matter, thanks to the southern ocean) doesn't exactly sizzle in an average summer - Aberdeen at 57.2 N matches its mean summer temperature, Stockholm at 59.3N wallops it by 3.7C, and Trondheim at 63.4N just shades it.
