Cricket enthusiasts will endure extreme heat as the temperature is expected to reach 40 degrees at MCG on Boxing Day.

As the Boxing Day approaches, cricket fans are eagerly waiting to witness the thrilling match between Australia and India at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). However, it seems like the weather gods have other plans as the temperature is expected to reach a scorching 40 degrees. This means that the fans are not only going to sweat from the intense action on the field, but also from the sweltering heat.

If the forecast turns out to be accurate, it could potentially break the record for the hottest Boxing Day match in history. But this is quite a contrast from last year's test, where the players had to constantly deal with rain interruptions. The weather can truly be unpredictable!

But it's not all bad news as there is a slight chance of a cooling shower in the evening, according to the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM). And with Christmas Day just around the corner, Melburnians can expect a warm and sunny day with a maximum temperature of 30 degrees. Meanwhile, our friends in Sydney will enjoy a slightly cooler day at 28 degrees.

Moving up north, Brisbane will also have a pleasant 30 degrees, while Adelaide will experience a hotter 36 degrees. But the city to watch out for is Perth, with a much cooler 25 degrees. And for those in Hobart, you'll be happy to know that the temperature will be a balmy 30 degrees.

So, despite the sweltering forecast for the Boxing Day match, we can all still enjoy the festive season with some beautiful weather across the country.
