    Must be pretty cold because my thong feels like a Popsicle.

    It was definitely cool here today - probably no more than around 40, and very windy.

  • Down under, feels like Summer already.
    Sub-tropical zone.
    Blistering blue sky.
    30ºc / 86ºF
    humidity 58%, sweating as if in a sauna.
    The breeze, 10kph from the North-East, is bliss.

    Sweating?  86 is SWEATING?  LOL

    86 is the start of winter here.  Kidding. It's not.  But we have long, hot summers that make 86 a relief day.  Here in Phoenix, Arizona.

  • It's the humidity that does it, Sharonna. I'm only an hour from the Eastern coast, so the air often carries a lot of the sea's moisture.
    Here in Oz, when you cross the Great Dividing Range to go inland, suddenly it gets very dry. The air burns of the sweat in microseconds, makes the heat easier to bare.

  • If it snowed where you are on Christmas day, would you be overjoyed or alarmed?

  • Snow on Xmas day! Here? I’d be alarmed. Has never happened yet. If it did, it would be the kind of fluke that could only happen as global warming creates increasingly erratic and more extreme events.

    Our sub-tropical climate will probably become more tropical. The cyclones of Summer usually rate from 1 to 3 in intensity, but are likely to start going up to categories 4 & 5. And unfortunately the regulators are behind – building codes have not been changed in anticipation. Roofs will fly off and worse.

    A typical Xmas day in the Tweed Valley is hot, muggy, windless and sultry in the morning, with a massive thunderstorm dropping an inch or two of rain in the afternoon – heralding the start of our wet season.

    Ari and I don’t celebrate Christmas. We think that since we are non-believers it would be hypocritical. He will ring his sister in Israel and wish her and the family a Happy Hanuka. Usually we spend the day quietly at home, avoiding drunks on the roads.

    We like to invite a few friends who have no family to drop in for lunch on Dec 21st, Summer Solstice.

    The nation goes a bit mad during the holiday season. Everyone is blitzed by advertising as businesses try to make Xmas into a guilt trip about generousity. Lonely people commit suicide. Drinkers double the toll of deaths and injuries on the roads.

    It's around the freezing mark. We had a light snow earlier this week. All normal in Minnesota this time of year.
