Yes, it is very hot today! Tomorrow will be another scorcher!I looked it up and only found information on Melbourne in 2014 as the hottest with the main court reaching 110F (43C) and courtside conditions even hotter.“It's inhumane,” Canadian tennis player Frank Dancevic told reporters after collapsing in last year’s scorching conditions. The mercury regularly neared or touched 110°F in Melbourne on multiple days during the 2014 tournament, with courtside conditions far hotter, sickening athletes and causing at least one water bottle to start melting into the artificial playing surface. “Passing out with heat-stroke is not normal.”https://www.climatecentral.org/news/tennis-grand-slams-heating-up-18566
