Temperatures there always seem particularily high, for instance the 29th November:
Max 53.2c Min 29.4c

I keep editing this out thinking it surely is wrong, so asking, is it?

On Google it states the maximum temperature today was 36 C but Google is not accurate. I do not think the maximum temperature would be 53.2 C but it is difficult to check. I sometimes look at the South Africa Weather Service website but I cannot access climate averages for any location. I think climate extremes are on the website so I should be able to check them.

Sounds a tad unreliable.

Many thanks for your replies.
