It has been unseasonably cool this summer and I don't mind one little bit, hey EC. Sister, Bone Doctor and Jo are holidaying in the north of the state and visited Mount Hotham and it was snowing. This is Sister's car.
R's oldest sister in the north of England sent a photo of the park outside her front door and it isn't really a surprise to see snow there and of course it is winter. So pretty.
Jackie in Toronto posted this amazing photo of a partly frozen Niagara Falls, a place I remember being very warm and humid.
Tradie Brother is staying tonight as he has jury selection at the County Court tomorrow, so I can only give you a quickie this morning.
You are right. I don't mind the smallest iota of a little bit. We are heading for more usual summer temperatures this weekend and early next week and I am dreading it.
ReplyDeleteLove the snow in summer shot - and that snowy path in the north of England. A partially frozen Niagra would be spectacular to see.
I have never been called for jury duty. Have you?
Blasted blogger is refusing to allow me to comment again. With luck this time it will relent.
EC, yes I see the heat is coming. No, I have never been called for jury duty. I wouldn't mind. Tradie Brother wasn't selected. I hope you didn't have rewrite the comment.
DeleteI must declare that I do not want a "quickie" this morning thank you very much Andrew.
ReplyDeleteYP, then you are free to skip to my next post.

Snow jobs Padre? Really? Funnily I was looking at a Colorado video today with snow.
DeleteWhilst we have rain, rain and more rain!
ReplyDeleteMarie, I'm sure you will agree with the lack of snow, year after year is nothing to do with climate change.
DeleteWe've got more snow than we can handle. It's been really cold and snowy this winter. Bring on spring, I say! Bunyip
ReplyDeleteHow deep Bunyip. Can you open your door to the street?
DeleteRecent snowfall has been ankle deep; not sure how many cm that is! Around town, the snow is already piled up above my head in many places and many areas are not being cleared because there's nowhere to put the snow apparently. Bunyip
DeleteForgot to answer your second question. We can open the door facing the street but when the weather's really bad, it has to be changed to manual opening because the snow piling up the outside of the door interferes with the automatic operation. Bunyip
DeleteThat sounds like enough snow at the moment.
DeleteAll you really need is enough for a few snowmen and a good snowball fight.
DeleteMy thoughts exactly River. And the snow doesn't need to be in town, the mountain is fine! Bunyip
DeleteI have also been enjoying the cooler days, but that's over now. Today is predicted to be 32C, followed by 33C and 35C, I think. I do remember our Saturday s supposed to be 39C and I will be inside with the cooler on. The snowy photos are very pretty, particularly the one from R's sister. I'd frame that.
ReplyDeleteRiver, it really is a lovely photo by R's sister. Pity she cut off the top of the tree, just like I would.
DeleteWe may get a dusting next weekend, but I won't get excited over the forecast because it was pretty much a big fat "no valley snow". It's been so wet and miserable this winter, but not cold.
ReplyDeleteStrayer, not being cold is something I suppose. Do you stand at a window and stare out at the falling rain?
DeleteFrost here; no snow. But a balmy 6 C this morning.
ReplyDeleteSix is not too bad Cro for your winter.
DeleteThat last photo is awesome.
ReplyDeleteLove to see the snow and didn't realise there was snow in the mountains....gosh.
Margaret, there must have been snow on your mountains too.
DeleteNot that I heard of Andrew :)
DeleteI bitterly resent cold, ice, snow and hail. We have paid our taxes for years (pre Covid, at least) and deserve a beautiful summer. 24-32c is all I require :)
ReplyDeleteHels, well you have had a good bit of living experience in a cold and wet country, back in the days when it used to receive snow.
DeleteOh how I would love to step out into snow right now Andrew, looks lovely. This is exactly the kind of quickie I needed 😊
ReplyDeleteGrace, a cooling roll in the snow.
DeleteClear and COLD here
ReplyDeleteClear and cold is not bad really Travel.
DeleteDucking and covering here waiting for the massive snowstorm coming our way tomorrow. I've never imagined snow in Australia, is it unusual?
ReplyDeleteXO
WWW
WWW in three states there will be snow in winter mostly on the mountains. We have a number of ski resorts. I hope the storm wasn't too bad.
DeleteYou've had cool weather in Melbourne and we've had very hot and humid weather in Perth.
ReplyDeleteOur turn arrives Sunday, Sami.
DeleteSo far we just had once a bit snow but it lasted only one day and next day it was gone. But in the Ardennes people went skiing, although the stations were closed.
ReplyDeleteGattina, there seems to be much less snow in the world nowadays.
DeleteIt was shocking thing for me to realize that it snowed in Australia. In not so shocking news, it's snowing here. And will be for most of the week.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your visit with your brother!
Yes Debby, enough to make skiing and ski resorts profitable. Thanks.
