The Weather Thread

It was a pretty boring one actually. I've been through 20 years of typhoons at this point and mostly they are underwhelming. The exception was Typhoon Mangkut in 2018. That was genuinely frightening.

I've only been in one cyclone. It hit Queensland in 1974 when we were on a family holiday to the Sunshine Coast. I was only 7. It hit overnight and it scared the crap out of me with so much wind. We (the kids) jumped on the bed with Mum and Dad until it went away. We were due to go home the next day but Brisbane was flooded! So we ended up spending a couple of nights in a Brisbane Motel. I heard since then, that the cyclone was only considered low range in terms of category levels but it was the flood of rain that came after it which did the damage. But to a 7 year old it sure didn't feel very low range.

Sounds nice Mr Walker. Which beach are you hanging at?

Whichever one he isn’t banned from!

Getting back to normal transmission today with an icy cold wind blowing right through the layers of clothing.

Another beautiful sunny winters day here in Sydney

[mightyrooster]

Minus 5 last night. Not pleasant at all. It finally hit double figures around 1pm and is now sitting at 11 degrees. It looks like we have a few more days of similar weather to come. Can’t wait!

Dunno where you are but I think it only got to 9 on the Southside. With the wind, it’s only 6.

That wind today has ice in it!

Oh I'm Southside Tuggeranong. I only thought it got to double figures because my iPad app said so! But since the app only states Canberra, that's probably the airport meaning north side. But it was absolutely freezing last night. The heater was coming on regularly while we were in bed asleep because it dropped below the thermostat level at around 11pm. It was so cold! And yes that wind. I went for a walk with the furbaby at 3 and it was icy.

I'm in south Belco and our entire front yard was frozen when I left today. Indoors is a constant 23' but outside... eeep.

I'm enjoying my night swims at the moment as the pool's so warm
