Yep no worries mate it has been quite hairy in that we have had very high winds and up at Siding Springs there has been a great loss of property (not far from where I am really in OZ distances) and there has been one firefighter lost I think due to natural causes but he was only 61 and was in Tassie having volunteered to go from Victoria to help out - very sad.

Wow! What a difference a hemisphere makes. We had -23C this morning and it might go below -29C by next weekend.

wait wait wait, -? as in minus? fark that we get -4C here and tops of 43C

Right now it's variable but not too bad. When it rains, it is mostely at night.

I'm about sick of winter......after 37 years, I think I deserve to do without it.
Sick of snow
Sick of cold
Sick of the heat bill.

In Northern Ohio along Lake Erie weather is like a womans mind, always changing from day to day or at times from hour to hour. 25F and snow and then 55F to 60F and raining. The weather forecast depends on what radio or TV station you are listing to. A 10 day forecast might be good for 2 days when things are good. The way we look at it is if you don't like the weather just have lunch and a couple of drinks and check again it might of changed to something of your liking. At present it is 26F with slight wind form the North coming across the lake which means anything can happen.

Down to the tilt of the earth (can't do much about that) + the effects of global warming. I believe the global warming effect ironically can cause colder northern hemisphere winters.

Global warming has warmed our winters up though, as it wasn't that many years ago and having -35 C temps in Late December thru February wasn't all that uncommon. If you had a vehicle that sat outside you had to plug in a radiator style heater, or a heater that sat inside the oil pan, if you expected it to start in the mornings.
