HappyHeart Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 http://www.accuweather.com/en/au/perth/26797/daily-weather-forecast/26797 This weeks weather......yeah....we better make sure we have our 50c for the meter..hey? Either that or find a sunny spot for that lovely sun which still has warmth in Mid Winter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyHeart Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 No need, " only " got down to 8c here, now a chilly 17c! It's the East coast that are getting in the next couple of days though. Yep, that's the problem..if you can call glorious sunny warm days a problem....clear skies and wonderful winter days are paid for by cold clear nights. Small price to pay for being here and getting to enjoy the AMAZING year round climate though... Established Poms relish the rain when it comes because we know we must make the most of it and the garden looks great and everything smells wonderful. We love Perth.

HappyHeart Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 woop woop Indeed! Off to bring in my line dried washing now (no need for expensive tumble driers here) and tend my plants which were grateful for the overnight rain. The dog is basking in the sun already, I might join her. Tough gig here in Perth but some of us have to do it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainR Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Snow expected on Sunday just a few hours from Sydney in the Blue Mountains. Kids are looking forward to it, whilst I certainly am NOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyHeart Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I just feel sorry for all those poms suffering a bit of decent real summer without the ocean nearby, benefit of cooling sea breezes or their own swimming pool to cool off in. Poor buggers don't even have air con at home. No wonder they all start referring to their 'emergency plan' when the temp goes over 30d! Shame for them.

Que Sera Sera Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 It's the not knowing that's doing my head in. I mean the Weather is so unpredictable! It's winter and it's cooler/cold at night even, and in Spring it gets warmer, in Summer it's hot and in Autumn it's warm. How the heck are we supposed to plan especially when sometimes it rains probably 20 times a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
