We don't have a "Spring".
It goes from fairly hot to OMFG! pretty much in a couple of days, then back to "Jezze the A/c is cold" again.
I am amused by the tourist this time of year who complain about the heat, flies & the fact I only have 3 of the 11 A/C's in the place going.
The staff just look at them strangely & pull there cardigans a bit tighter.

My friends in Brisbane used to light the open fire when the temperatures dropped to 20C.

Well, it feels like Spring because the days are getting longer.

Current temp in Melbourne: 19 C
Feels like: 11 C


So:

Stand out of the wind and it's 19C.

Stand in the wind and it's 11C.

Yea, noice, ay!
I can sit out on the deck and watch the footy, plus it's closer to the Engel!

funny isn't it?

a lot of people reckon its a cold winter but average temps Australia wide point to the opposite'

most areas of Australia are experiencing slightly higher temperatures day and night.

it has been a little windier though and in many cases a bloody lot windier.

adiabatic and katabatic winds do change localised temperatures while just up or down the road it can be significantly different.

global warming and ocean level rising are definitely having an effect .

ask a fridgie.....if you have a cold zone , there has to be a hot one and vice versa
