Man, you guys down under seem to be getting drier and hotter summers down there with plenty of fire I am sure.

Terry in Australia · « **Reply #101 on:** January 13, 2014, 02:55:44 PM »

Yeah, the weather was cooler right up until now, but it's been hotter, was 47 deg C when we had the "Black saturday" fires back in 2009 mate. I don't think it's really getting hotter, it's just a friggin' hot time of year.........

Terry...how long does this heat usually last? The hottest I have ever seen it here is about 103 in July.

Terry in Australia · « **Reply #103 on:** January 13, 2014, 03:59:00 PM »

We'll usually get a week or two of really hot weather like now over summer John, and lots of 80(+) degree days this time of the year, and it'll stay warm until around May, then it cools down (not cold like in the US, but down to around 50 over winter (from June to August) we do get a few days colder than that, but not many.

The biggest concern on days like today is fires, and sadly, many of them are deliberately lit. I've got a park behind my place, so I've got the hose ready, just in case. Cheers, Terry.

Terry just got back from the Dominican Republic and it's dammed cold here so can I borrow a few degrees C from you so I can warm up again.

I forgot to turn the fountain on 24/7 and it froze. I had to paddle to the middle of the pond and unfreeze it with pot of boiling water. The stunts I do

26 degrees and a half inch of snow on the ground, WTF!

Over a hundred accidents last night, schools closed and I'm not going to work anytime soon, we just can't deal with this down here.

Not only wimps, but idiots. Before it snowed, it was freezing rain that turned to ice. You can't drive normally on ice!

You right about that, there is not much you can do about freezing rain.

How do you know you live in Buffalo, went and got the truck washed yesterday. It was 7°and 15 mph winds. Got tired of cutting wood to keep warm.

We had a tropical -40 Wind chill rolling down from our friends in Canada yesterday! Suppose to be close to 50 above today!

WTH?!?!?!?

demon78 · « **Reply #117 on:** January 24, 2014, 08:50:08 AM »

Ok guys you want to feel real cold check out Whitehorse, Yukon Territory on the weather network I've been there and it seems to me that it is as far North from Vancouver- Seattle area as Los Angeles is south and is considerably warmer than Wiarton, it's not fair. It's not fair I say.

I'm sitting here with a badly sunburned face (again) after riding to and from the Phillip Island Classic Motorcycle Races with my Nolan Flip Front's "Flip" up and I'm only wishing I was living in your parts today.

My face hurts, I can't shave, hell, I can't even touch my beautiful visage! I wish I was in the Yukon, or Noaksville, or Huston, or anywhere else where the ground is covered in nice cool fluffy snow, so I can shove my big red dial in there and listen to it sizzling and popping as the snow turns to steam around it!

Johnie · « **Reply #119 on:** January 26, 2014, 03:52:47 PM »

BJ...we must be getting your -40 wind chill tonight and through Tuesday. Can we send it back to you???

Just finished shoveling 4 inches of snow too. We got it back over here Terry!!!

honda_dog · « **Reply #120 on:** January 26, 2014, 03:54:25 PM »

Not liking it, at all. I spend alot of time out in the garage. It was warm enough today to use a little spray polish/cleaner on it.

72 and sunny here today, took two of the bikes out for a ride....
