I don't know what the weather wizards say but here, tonight, at just after
11pm it was warm.

It only fell to 12C here despite a largely clear night. However, the
clever money is on colder weather moving south during Sunday with it
getting chillier as the day progresses. Let's see just how far south
it gets. I'd like to see prolonged rain more than anything else -
everything is dust dry and the half hour long spates of light drizzle
over the past weeks have done nothing to help. I've got several Nikau
palms (Rhopalostylis) and that needed deep watering yesterday and a
Majesty palm (Ravenea) was in so much trouble that the newest frond
was starting to wilt. It is a riverine species that needs lots of
water and I hope I've managed to catch it before damage has been
done.
