Third scorching day in a row, but, like last week, I'm stuck inside. :(

No. That puts it onto my colleagues. Kids still need a body in front of them. My classroom is 31oC as I await my last class of the day.

Stormy skies here playing out dark and dramatic scenes - after a brief clear sky with full moon lighting up the mountains last night

Mick,

Smart bird by the look of it.

--

First real frost of the year at my place this morning.  -5'C in parts of north Canberra, but no idea how cold it has got in other suburbs.  Definitely a wintry blast, but it was a cold air mass pulled up from the Antarctic, so not really surprising in that regard.  Still a bit of a shock after has been so mild up until now.  Going to toast lots of stuff in my garden I think.  ::)

Min winter temp -8 or -9°C. Max summer temp 40°C. Thankfully, maybe once or twice a year only.

Coldest June day in 43 years, today here in Canberra.  We officially got to 4.1'C, and some parts didn't even get over 3'C.  Very unusual!  It was foggy and cloudy and decidedly chilly.  Altogether a gloomy day and I barely went outside except this morning when I had to.  Between today and the -6'C yesterday morning, it has been a somewhat unusual week.  :o

We had a ground frost this morning, as Vivienne found out on her walk down to the local park with Heidi at 6.45 a.m.!

No Luit, I wouldn't.  :o

Our coldest months are July August and some of September, but even then our day temps are usually higher than 4'C.
