As you may be aware, yesterday was hot as hell. South Australia experienced an intense heatwave, with soaring temperatures breaking records across the region. Adelaide sizzled at 41.2 degrees, a degree and a half cooler than our hottest day in history; 42.7 degrees on January 24, 2021. Yesterday is our hottest day since. The scorching conditions extended beyond city limits, with Kyancutta claiming the title of the hottest spot in the state, recording a blistering 47.2 degrees. Tarcoola closely followed at 47.1 degrees, and Wudinna reached a peak of 46.8 degrees. These extreme temperatures underscore the severity of the heatwave gripping South Australia. The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) highlighted that the soaring temperatures were fueled by an exceptionally hot air mass preceding a low-pressure trough near the state on Tuesday. This combination led to severe heatwave conditions in northern SA and forecasted extreme heatwave conditions in the Northwest Pastoral district. The day commenced with high temperatures for many towns in South Australia, exemplified by Oodnadatta hitting 35.9 degrees Celsius at 7:42 am ACDT. Adelaide's temperature surged over 30 degrees by 9 am and exceeded 38 degrees by midday. The city ultimately reached a high of 41 degrees Celsius in the afternoon. This heatwave has left its mark as Adelaide encountered its warmest day in almost three years. Despite the scorching conditions, relief is on the horizon, as the weather bureau anticipates a cool change to sweep through South Australia tonight. This shift in weather patterns brings hope for some respite from the intense heat that has gripped the region. South Australia endured a sweltering day, shattering temperature records and prompting concerns about the impact of the heatwave on communities. As the region awaits the anticipated cool change, residents are advised to stay hydrated and take necessary precautions to cope with the challenging weather conditions.

In the electrifying world of professional wrestling, there exists a force that transcends the boundaries of strength, charisma, and unapologetic attitude – none other than Rhea Ripley. Hailing from Adelaide, South Australia, Rhea Ripley, born Demi Bennett on October 11, 1996, the Henley High graduate has not only become a sensation in the WWE but has recently garnered a shout-out from none other than Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, adding another layer to her already impressive legacy. Not only is Ripley one of the very few Australians currently signed to the WWE, but she is also the first Adelaidian "Diva" to be signed to the wrestling conglomerate. Recently making a surprise return on Monday Night RAW - the wrestling equivalent of SNL - Rhea Ripley received accolades from The Rock on social media. Expressing his admiration for her, The Rock highlighted their backstage shenanigans and playfully acknowledged their contrasting styles – "She wears black. I love black. She's a badass. And I got famous for wearing a fanny pack". She wears black. I love black. She’s a bad ass. And I got famous for wearing a fanny pack. We had fun f*cking around backstage 😈🥃 Love, appreciate and respect you champ @rhearipley_wwe - thanks for trusting me with your title, keep kickin’ ass and raising the bar 🖤💪🏾 Big shout to @cathykelley for being a total pro and having fun 🎤 👊🏾 #peopleschamp ✊🏾 📸 @flanneryunderwood @wwe The Rock's shout-out wasn't just a social media gesture; it showcased the camaraderie between two wrestling icons. The Instagram post captured moments of shared laughter and Ripley handing over her title belt, immortalising the genuine connection between these two powerhouses. Rhea Ripley's journey into the world of sports entertainment began in 2017 when she joined WWE's developmental territory, NXT. She quickly ascended the ranks and secured her place in history by winning the inaugural NXT UK Women's Championship tournament, marking the beginning of her meteoric rise. Transitioning to the main NXT roster, Ripley made history again by capturing the NXT Women's Championship at WrestleMania 36 in 2020, defeating the seasoned Charlotte Flair. This triumph solidified her as a formidable competitor and showcased her ability to dominate on the grandest of stages. Rhea Ripley isn't just known for her in-ring prowess; she embodies a rebellious persona that challenges stereotypes and inspires a generation of fans. Unafraid to push boundaries, she represents a new era of women's wrestling – authentic, powerful, and unapologetically herself. Beyond the squared circle, Ripley engages with fans through social media, sharing glimpses of her life, training routines, and empowering messages. Her devoted fanbase, known as the "Rhea Squadron," is a testament to her impact beyond the wrestling arena. In the fast-paced world of professional wrestling, Rhea Ripley stands tall. She leaves an indelible mark on the industry with a remarkable journey, a shout-out from wrestling legend The Rock, and an unwavering determination to redefine women's wrestling.
