I guess you are a believer in the 'Inconvenient Truth".

I'm up in the air on that one. In '78 we had a winter with no snow at all, even at the ski resorts, but in '82 and '83 we had two winters in a row with twice the normal snowfall. Snowbird ended up with 940 inches the first year, and the two-years accumulation runoff ended up flooding downtown Salt Lake City.

I actually prefer temperatures on the minus side, before temperatures like that...

baggygreen 01-14-07 08:17 PM

Its really not that bad mate! We'll get the boat down to the lake for a sail, jump in if theres no wind, and go flyin along the lake when there is! not to mention the abundence of public pools that you can go and cool down at, complete with an array of fine sights at the pool as well.

Also, down here, if it hits that temp then half of canberra packs up and heads to the south coast for the day, its great because its only 90 mins drive to the beach:yep:

In winter, it gets too cold for my liking, mainly because im an AFL umpire and standing out in the cold wind with rain pouring down can be mightily unpleasant

Not bad too bad here in the sun in the day time ...
if you stay close to the window with the heater on that is.

It's not just the weather changing ...
the magnetic poles are changing and by the year 2012
you will see a real dramatic change ...

Like has never happened in the earth before
(whoops I should say, recorded history)

And here I was for those 40C+ days down at the bay in Geelong enjoying 25C plus sea-breezes so missed them all (got the regular updates from colleagues suffering through it though, LOL!). Bummer, LOL!

Mind you, I've felt the heat over the last few days when catching the lovely un-airconditioned ACTION buses home from work. :roll:

BTW, it's now 9.30pm and still a warmish 27C...

Was an absolute scorcher here in Melbourne yesterday. 40°C.

A Bushfire up north cut out some main power transmitters, which in turn left half the city without electricity for a few hours. Turning my home into an oven.

Went to the beach last night, pitty i wasn't the only one with that idea. After midnight the beach was still as crowded as I've ever seen it, and I've been living here my entire life.

I should move to Canada, because this heat just ain't my thing.
