Perth Faces Heatwave and Hazy Conditions Temperature Inversion and 40°C Days Expected

Perth is facing a severe heatwave, with temperatures expected to reach up to 41°C in inland areas and around 39°C in the metropolitan region. Bushfire smoke, trapped by a temperature inversion, is causing hazy conditions, particularly affecting those with respiratory issues. The heatwave will persist through mid-week, with some relief anticipated by Friday as temperatures drop into the high 20s. Residents are advised to stay indoors during the worst conditions, especially overnight.
