Lambethlad Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Dammit, I shouldn't do it to myself but checking the weather throughout last year London was warmer than Melbourne from May until December. Sounds like it'll be the same again, how annoying I would hope so. You are comparing Melbourne's winter and spring to London's summer and autumn.

As John Elliot would say...Pigs Arse..! CFCs from old fridges and spray cans were causing holes in the protective ozone layer though and action was taken and continues to be taken to combat it with measurable success. That has absolutely nothing to do with weather forecasts either. May have got your wires crossed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wakeboard1980 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Have not read all the ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz but didn't the OP complain Perth was too hot so why does he want the UK hotter? So then he can keep complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andy Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Have not read all the ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz but didn't the OP complain Perth was too hot so why does he want the UK hotter? I think you will probably find that it is a different kind of heat :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmo Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Its three-month outlook says above average temperatures are 'favoured' for the UK for April, May and June. Last month was the 15th sunniest March on record. Average UK temperatures for April are around 11C and 16C in June, but last month thermometers were already showing 20C, suggesting a hot summer. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/uk-weather-heatwave-lasting-three-3384697#ixzz2yMiHv3cH Follow us: @DailyMirror on Twitter | DailyMirror on Facebook one for filing in the weather forum:wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weather in March clearly is not an accurate precursor for determining what the following summer will be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul1Perth Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I think you will probably find that it is a different kind of heat :unsure: It sure is Andy. I was sweating buckets last year in the UK when it was only mid 20's, here it can be 35 degrees and about the same sweatyness. Nowhere near as much humidity here.

jimmyay1 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I would hope so. You are comparing Melbourne's winter and spring to London's summer and autumn. indeed. i follow the weather fairly closely and it's correct that essentially London will be warmer than Melbourne on most days (not all) between mid May to mid September - about 4 months of the year. Even so, there will be a fair few days when Melbourne is warmer in the depths of winter than London in July - last winter's July daytime average high in Melb was 16 degrees, with lots of days reaching 18-19. There are plenty of English summer days which fail to reach 20 degrees. Certainly where my family is from in the North of England, average summer daytime highs are quite similar to Melbourne winter days at around 16-17 degrees with overnights of 8-11, even in summer. I think lots of immigrants to oz quickly forget how cool the UK can be even in summer. London has a pretty warm climate compared to the rest of the uk. by early September solar UV is starting to hit around 5 in Melbourne which is similar to an English summer's day even though it is only early spring.
