We were out there in January for 3 weeks and in Perth itself it ranged between 38 and 41 degrees Celcius and up north when we went to my brother in Dampier it was 46 degrees! Jan to Feb are probably the hottest months - although last year when I was over in March visiting my mother it did have 3 days of 40 degrees which is very unusual for that time of year. It is a dry heat compared to the humidity of Queensland and some of the other states.
