Look at the forecast where I live,.it's crazy just last week we had snow. This is west Texas.
67271I just love those pictures and it's great to see how the other side of the world lives... But .........
Well... here's my take on it. Snow looks lovely but mostly on Christmas cards!!! I felt snow once, right down my neck, and it was Cold. DHDon, in a fit of boyish nonsense, scooped some old snow from a gutter and treated me to a surprise gift. From that time on I didn't hanker for some snow experience in any serious way at all. It's really pretty but......I don't really think I could live in that kind of place. Of course, I could quite easily eat a feast of BBQ'd delights in that climate.
You're in deep, deep snow while Adelaide, and most of South Australia, sweltered in a very long heatwave, when along came the rain on Thursday and flooded that middle part of the state. Some houses were swamped with two feet of water inside them, school yards had lakes in them much to the children's delight, the water came up through the floor boards and then.... outside, the water just sank into the dry, dry ground!!! The houses have flood damage and 'stinky smells' while outside the water just disappeared. And all the while, there are fires burning but this rain has helped the firefighters to contain and control the fires at least for a time.
Where I live which is one of the coldest and wettest areas of the state, no rain fell at all but the temperature did cool down to pleasant.
Like greysewist says, Aussies can be pretty crazy but with weather like this who can blame us.... :}
Oh... afterthought!!! .... I could also quite easily sit on one of those wonderful verandah chairs, snuggled in a very thick quilt and gaze out at that beautiful scenery.

25546Lovely pics -what a good man you found there. This is way beyond the saying 'Mad dogs and Englishmen out in the midday sun'! We can be pretty crazy here in Australia, but it's not very likely you'd find anyone outside here cooking in that weather :)

It is so hot here with 98% humidity. Your garden looks like fairyland. Well done DH with the braai (BBQ in SA) - looks delicious. Put the lid down before it gets cold. LOL.
