First day of Winter and its getting cold
« on: June 01, 2014, 08:23:08 PM »

First day of winter and not looking forward to the cold weather, expected to get down to 22 degrees tonight and 20 degrees at night during the week.

The things we put up with living in the tropics. At least it's normal during the day being 27 degrees.

Once it gets below 20 we freeze up here  :D

1st day of winter here as well surprisingly.... I wore footy shorts and a tee shirt all day. I think it got up to about 16, with the sun out all day.

Positively balmy down here too. Not a scent of ice or snow on the hills.

Opening of the ski season not looking good.
