THE Kimberley town of Fitzroy Crossing is sweltering under its longest hot spell since temperature records started in 1997.
For the past 29 days residents in the community, 400km east of Broome, have had to deal with temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius.

Resident Belinda Bonfield, 31, said it took two years to adjust to the heat after moving to the Kimberley town from the Sunshine Coast in 2005.
"It still knocks you out at the start of the hot season, you're body adjusting back into the heat but that first year it's an initial shock to the body," Ms Bonfield, who works as an area manager for the Shire of Derby said.
Climatologist John Relf said with high temperatures forecast for tomorrow and Thursday, Fitzroy Crossing would have its hottest October on record ever with an average maximum temperature of 42 degrees centigrade.
