It was only a bit below average. Coolest February for four years, though.

Much better than last years February

Much better than last years February

At least it's rained a few times this summer, and not the six month mini drought of last season.

We're like frogs in boiling water at this stage, celebrating the average simply because we're now used to burning.

Oppo leader Snozz.

My condolences guys.

 

[gaskin]

It was always going to happen.

Bit of hot weather and everyone loses their mind.

Yet when we have an unseasonably cool February no one bats an eyelid.

Man was set on fire last night in my suburb last night, media are crawling all over desperately trying to get information and footage out of people.

I've told each of them to get ****ed. Vultures man.

What suburb?

 

[ioppolo]

What suburb?

It was either Cloverdale or Carlisle which surprises no one.

Cloverdale.

The sooner that winter comes the better, I have never liked summer weather. Give me overcast days, give me rain, thunderstorms, lightning, give me hoodie weather.

Yep I do long for the rain during summer.

Mind you I always look forward to summer towards the end of winter too. I enjoy the variety.

I grew up in the Kimberley and even after living down south for 25 years now, the variety in seasons still feels like a novelty to me - to the extent that I designed my front yard around an ornamental pear as the feature tree since it has a distinctly different look for all four seasons. Love how it reflects the variety of the seasons.

Perth near the coast and down in Mandurah has perfect weather.

Perth near the coast and down in Mandurah has perfect weather.

I live near the coast and it's still been too hot here this week but it's usually a couple of degrees cooler than the Eastern suburbs.

It's still over 27 degrees in Perth and it's close to 9pm, that's bad for Summer let alone late March, can't wait for winter to arrive.

I'm here for a few days, managed to get a decent coffee this morning. Still a bit warm for me but this is way better weather for me than Feb was, too ****en hot.

Lucky for you we are supposed to get some rain over the next couple of days.

Just rained before when chilling at a cafe, reckon it dropped 10 degrees in 10 mins

Oh and Hay St going two way, amazing. First time I came here years back I got really confused by all the one way streets and took about 4 tries before I made it to my hotel ha ha

Twice in the last week or so I've had reason to go past the newspaper on Jon Sanders Dr and have been stopped by a breatho.

Seriously who gets picked up by an RBT in suburbia at 930am? The answer is not no one.

 

[kane249]

You'd be surprised on that one, I've known people to not pass that early

Clearly the answer is journos.

Sometimes the alcohol from the night before still comes up on the reading. Someone at my old work was on their way to a 7am shift start and got done....twice.
