truth is we needed the rain here, just prefer it came in the usual one big dump rather then spread out over 4 days like you lot seem to prefer getting  ;D downside is it means no work today, been quite a while since i had a day off work from the weather, been lucky enough to have indoor work to do up till now.

Melburnians have shivered their way through the coldest morning in two years as temperatures dipped to just 1.1? in the city on Saturday.

The morning is the coldest since 2015, when a low of just 0.6? was recorded on July 19

Temperatures in the state's north plunged even deeper, dropping to -6.9? in Rutherglen - the coldest July morning on record.
