What's the weather like?

[Mellow oldfark]

6 deg on the nsw southern highlands and the rain kicking in. ️

 

[Sugar]

Good morning
Rain, 4c atm with just a top of 6c forecast - be an inside jobby today

 

[Old fox]

Solid rain forecast here for next 3 days straight. Bring it down in buckets Huey..... will help the manure break down I applied on the property recently. Hardy plants you have Sug. In order to survive a Canberra winter.

I could barely survive a Canberra winter. On secondment there for a year, I had a few family weekend visits. Cold Canberra winter convinced them to talk me out of a permanent family move down there. Good move on their part. No regrets

Been freezing up around my parts. Worst winter yet, made worse still with no heating in the house..... Problem solved with yet another move and it's just starting to merge into spring...

Hope everyone is safe and well out there. Fingers crossed they introduce a vaccine that can rectify this virus pandemic that's affecting lives all around the world. God bless the medical scientists that are working hard to address this problem and the movements funding this research.

Speaking of which. Have a lot of time to catch up on and better get to it! Cheerio 🖐

The rain has been wonderful here and good timing for you Old fox.
I am surprised the plants aren't too fussed with the winter here. Yay!

If you don't mind me asking, what job were you doing on secondment here? I'm going to guess the army
The first few winters here did me in but am a bit more accustomed to it now although I'd be lost with out good heating. Don't know how street people survive here.
Glad to hear you happy where you live.
Cheers

No army for me. I was a Director with a Federal Govt. Agency (in Tuggeranong) not The Feds..lol. I was managing a Project at that time, and was needed on site, to develop relationships with contract company reps. in the ACT. I was a nightly local on the Manuka restaurant strip.

I 've lived there. Glad I 'm over here!

 

[Pedro de pacas]

A lovely 2c

 

[Indy]

12c above ya. Sun is beaming and hitting a top of 24c apparently. A great day for tourism in the sunny state. Nevermind.. wishful thinking.

 

[Pedro de pacas]

Last half sunny day here for a while, got a week of rain coming, be 10 -12 c ? and nights of 6-7
so the cold mornings are over for a while ? not sure if that's a good or bad thing ?

 

[Indy]

I dunno how you do it, year after year. Main benefit seems it's a great place to grow buds in the warmer months.

Looking for a holiday house in QLD atm ?, somewhere to hide from start of May till at least the end of August,
had enough of the 4-6 + months of winter here, can't get much of anything done, its not much fun this time of year
any decent day and there is heaps of work to catch up on

Never really wanted to leave QLD to come back to Vic, was a bit to young tho, had to follow along
but you used to get great $ for working in Vic, retired now, so earning $ is not as important as being WARM lol

Would of really rather of stayed in WA, got an education there,
the same one QLD was trying to give me 4-5 years later, grade 6 math in form 4 ffs
WA got the best weather in OZ ?
