It was a very <em>special</em> "adjustment for eccentricity".

Australia???s highest temperature: On Jan. 16, 1889, the temperature at
Cloncurry, Queensland, Australia, soared to 128 (degrees) F [53C+],
the highest temperature ever recorded on the continent of Australia.
[http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2014/01/17/january-16-was-the-hottest-day-in-australias-his
tory-just-not-this-century/]
-- "research" from  "Steve Goddard" aka Tony Heller, c2014


Recent investigations have revealed that this temperature was measured
in an improvised screen made from a beer crate and that it equated to
47-49 ?C under standard conditions. The highest temperature ever
recorded at Cloncurry's current weather station [i.e. under WMO standards]
is 46.9 ?C (116.4 ?F), well short of the 1889 temperature of 53.1 ?C.
