I think it's about time for a thread like this, since we all like to chat about our weather.

Many other forums have a thread like this.

While Australians are boiling, Europeans are turning into ice cubes!

Rules are simple, tell us how your weather is and chat as you like :D

I guess I'll start.

4°C and a few rain drops.

23:10 (pm, for those who live in the dark times) and it's +1C but there's slush around.

Very cold wind chill makes it feel colder but I have the heating running at full tilt, so it's like a sauna in my house.

And I've just had a very large Tia Maria with Vodka and ice.

Gonna get another in a minute :)

Minus -1, feels like about -6 in the wind. Blustery snow still. We've had a few inches over night.

Thats nice, I think I could live in Tasmania, one question: Is Tasmania a cool place? or is it just a place where old people live?

I remember when I was in Eastbourne UK, the only thing I could see was old people in their scooters or whatever it's called :lol:

But few years later I was in Broadstairs in Kent, and same situation there, lots and lots of old people.

Maybe all the old people retire to southern UK.

I've got +80°C in my sauna, how's it with yours...?  :wink:

It is foggy here, outside temperature has gone up to -3°C and main roads are soaking in salt and slush.

No snow left, no slush left, no salt left. Not that I got much of that.

6°C with a little wind.

 :twisted: Are you calling me old! :wink: :lol:  

No we have some nice young ones too  :eek: :wink:


Some young ones like my daughter Ashley leave the  state and go to the mainland but most come back eventually because our climate is more pleasant and people are generally more pleasant (friendly and open) here - no offence to mainlanders.
