Coldest and Wettest Winter?
Hey there,
Seems like this year - the winter down here in Melbourne is awfully cold and wet. Great for my plants and roses though. But has this been the coldest and wettest winter season and days on record?

But has this been the coldest and wettest winter season and days on record? Totally different up here in NSW, MId North Coast, Forster. Probably the warmest I've ever felt, and the dryest. Recent daytime temps, around 22-23degs Cheers Andrew Cheers, Duncan -- _____________________________ Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose their common sense.

I am in southern Western Australia and it is extremely wet here! I have a
park over the road from where I live and it has been taken over by ducks. Last weekend was sunny and I think it is the first fine one we have had for a long time. All our dams are filling up at a rapid rate of knots... we are very lucky. Harvey "Jade" Jade_at_Jaywings_dot_com wrote in message ... PS: Why don't you check the BOM website.

We're right in the middle of Sydney (Lidcombe) and had about 50mm over 3 days. Headed out happily to plant a shrub today in my front yard and discovered that underneath the mulch, the ground was *still* dry. That was at the bottom of the slope in my front garden :-( OTOH my vegie patch is looking good, probably because the soil is better quality. In the front yard, I think I may have a major problem with water repellence. -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "Life is like a cigarette -- smoke it to the butt." -- Harvie Krumpet |
