I thought those temperatures suited you just fine, Rick. You're freezing when it's 15ºC... :P

Here it's supposed to be winter, but it's 8-10ºC. Nice  :happydance: :happydance:

that's about normal i thought Rick? 50c is hot there, what humidity like? it the humidity more than the temp that you feel more.
it's been mild here , never seems to get real cold or real hot & min temp max temp are close not big variation. today supposed to rain. but has not started just cloudy.
my weather station reading 20c outside now 24c inside not sure what forecast temp is?

Yes, the stronger the night time easterlies, the hotter it's going to be the next day.
I blame the South Aussies for sending those winds over.  :lol:

Although I have enough air miles to do the trip for both of us business class twice over - my wife is dead set on not never ever flying long haul again.  I must admit - any flight over 4 hours I find uncomfortable.  So the answer is no - as much as I would like to.

The Fremantle Doctor doesn't reach the hills.
It certainly cools the coastal suburbs but up where we are we'd probably be better off waiting fro the Sydney Doctor. :lol:

Dave if you got a wind or whatever that came from Sydney it would be a dust storm by time it reached you LOL
I remember a few years back in Sydney waking up to a red sky, the air was a red haze , everything was covered in fine red dust, we got a breeze from Broken Hill

Last week we had few cold days, then +2 and heavy rain for two days, then freezing and some snow.

Now it's +3 and raining AGAIN!  :mad: While highways are free of ice, small roads are now comparable to a poorly made skating rink, which are extremely slippery even for studded tyres. Last few kilometres into my work was yesterday just like that, and I couldn't dare to drive that road any faster than 40 km/h. At the middle of winter when the road surface is hard snow, you can easily drive 80 km/h.

Or faster. I understand Rally Finland has the highest average speeds of any event on the WRC calendar.  :scared:

That may be, however rally cars have very different tyres. There's no way you could keep up in their speed with any road legal tyres.  :wink:
