I'll put my hand up to being a total wuss during humid weather. Hate it!!! I've reached the stage now where I'm looking forward to autumn. It's supposed to reach 26C in Devonport today. I've already been for a long walk - seen to the horses - done a bit in the garden and been shopping. I won't go for another walk until the evening. I'm off to the movies and lunch with a friend soon. Air conditioning thrown in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobj Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Love it, @Toots. It’s a 100 km round trip for us to see a movie, suffice to say, we just wait for a good film to come up on tv. Just had 2 new air con units installed last week! Can take any heat, but the humidity does get a teensy bit too much...

I’ll be doing a lot less this time around, just not up to it now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 's about my perfect temp for WA. Brilliant for a few hours at the beach, swimming, ski paddling boarding. Water is a great temperature too, swim for ages without feeling cold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ver Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Looking forward to autumn coming soon-ish. For the mean time, I’d like to share this video I’ve uploaded last night (sorry for hijacking this thread!). Moved to Aus 2 years ago and I find the weather one of the more interesting aspects of living here: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hadnt had much rain for so long it was quite welcome and heh who doesnt like a day or two off work? lol Cal x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winters are pretty good too, cools down enough to get a bit more running and biking in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARYROSE02 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I drove down to Neilsen Park last night and was shocked to see a sign which said "Shark Net Damaged"(by last weekend's storms), so, despite there being other people in the water, I drove to Watsons Bay where (I hope) the shark net is better made. Actually, I know that the one at Watsons Bay (or is it "Watson's?") is a permanent one whereas Neilsen Park's is taken down from May to October. The beach at NP is called Shark Bay mind. I'm becoming ever more wimpy as I get older as I retreated from Clovelly last week because I thought the water was too rough, and Bronte too crowded. I went to Neilsen Park that night which is an extra few kilometres from Bronte, via Bondi Jn where I always get lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Hot here today, when i was leaving work at 4pm the car said 36 degrees...It looks so dry you wouldnt even know we had been flooded in yesterday, unless you went down to the river and saw the massive height rise.

Bulya Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Humidity levels I haven’t seen here before. It’s currently 80%, over four times normal. I was just up the road in Murrumbateman yesterday afternoon, and it was humid as. I see it’s currently 93%, crazy high for the region. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobj Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 24 hours to 6 o’clock this morning, we had 181 mm rain.(7”) That is 12 inches in 2 days. The local creek is flooding and people can’t get to work. Cheers, Bobj. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramot Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 So cool on the Sunshine Coast at 27’ that we had a roast last night, seemed like the right thing to have to take warm us up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 22C here yesterday and we all went swimming. 25C is hot enough for me. Funny how we all prefer different temperatures. That's why you prefer to live where you live and I prefer cooler Tassie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
