Default Your weather

How's the weather at your place?

Here in Holland we had about 5 cm of snow on Friday, resulted in trains no longer running and 700+ kms of traffic jams. The latter because people went home early to avoid the traffic jams ....

Last night lowest recorded temperature since 27 years was -22,9 deg. C

Brrrr

The thermometer on the window showed +6° C today. Most unusual for the prairies here in Manitoba. I don't think I have ever seen it this warm this time of year.

Hi Guys

Received some photos of snow around my Aunties home in Holland, it all looked nice but to cold for me. Here in South Australia we have had the temperature up to 40 degrees, but today we had a min of 13 and a maximum of 19 with rain which is below average for February.

Cheers

Tony

Well it has started to snow in South Kent in last hour or so, about half an inch so far (no metric spoken here).

At 19,1 deg C we broke the temperature record for 22 March. We haven't had such a high temperature since 1936.
This month is quickly approaching a new temperature and drought record.
Can't believe we were ice skating last month.

Default Non-summer

Well at least a fairly short one here in Melbourne. We seem to have slipped into autumn quite early this year.

The last hot day was Thursday at Corowa... then Friday was wall to wall rain!

This last week or so has smashed records. We were up to 24, 25, 26C (75.2, 77.0, 78.8F). Trees budding, daffodils, croci, tulips blooming, birds and animals probably confused.

Shorts and T shirt, raking, gardening, pruning, etc.

Then...today...Christ!, barely 10C, back to long pants, jackets, etc.

Forecast is for more of the same, as March should be.

Nice while it lasted.

First frost this morning and it is still only 2c on the varandah now. I have been out chasing cattle off the road and even with leather gloves on the finger with the metal bone froze.
