2005 Ends in Heat waves and Cold snaps

The eastern states of Australia sweltered on the hottest New Year's Eve on record, with Hospitals in Sydney swamped and fire services on edge as the heatwave kicked in. On the other side of the continent, Perth has recorded its coldest December in 83 years.

Globally, 2005 Was the Second Warmest Year on Record, and the hottest year in Australia since records commenced in 1910.

While much of Australia swelters, Europe is experiencing a cold snap with UK Drivers trapped in snow drifts. In India a Cold wave tightened its grip with nearly 100 deaths reported so far. In the USA plains, wildfires raced through grass dried out by the region's worst drought in 50 years charring nearly 200 homes and killing four people in Texas and Oklahoma.
