4/10 — Rough. Hot, humid, and carrying a real risk of storms by afternoon.

Confidence is low today, and the models don’t fully agree — highs land anywhere from 33°C to 36°C, with a consensus around 34.8°C feeling closer to 35.5°C in the afternoon humidity. The dew point is running high enough to keep things sticky rather than merely warm, and with a more organized round of storms looking possible later on, this is a day to keep half an eye on the sky even as the sun holds through midday.

Today, hour by hour

And tomorrow… Rated the same 4/10 — Rough, with highs easing a touch to around 31.6°C but the air turning more oppressive still (feels-like near 33°C) — and gusts should pick up notably, to around 51 km/h, alongside another shot at organized storms, so it’s worth treating as changeable rather than settled.

Tl;dr: Hot and humid with a genuine afternoon storm risk — keep plans flexible and don’t be surprised by a rumble later on.

Today’s BaZi

The day runs on the 乙酉 pillar — a wood-over-metal combination that keeps things a little tense underneath a calm surface.

C: Outlook: mixed conditions with a useful tailwind buried in the middle of the day. Quiet friction and small betrayals drift in early, the kind of low-grade static that’s easy to miss until it costs you something. But a cooperative current builds through the day, pulling things together nicely if you lean into practical, hands-on work — tending what you already have rather than chasing something new. Late in the day a disruptive gust moves through, unsettling plans and prompting sudden movement, so treat anything fixed for the evening as provisional.

D: Outlook: pressurised, with a system of your own making stalling overhead. The friction today isn’t imposed from outside — it’s a loop you built and now have to sit inside for a while, and fighting it head-on will only prolong it. Best used as a day for decisive, high-pressure work rather than anything requiring patience or diplomacy: block out time for deep, solitary focus or a single hard decision, and steer clear of meetings or negotiations where the tension has room to spread.
