Funny, most people I know always say it is easier to cool down than warm up. Once you are properly cold extra clothing and heating doesn't do a thing.
Re your other post re raining in Melbourne, every time you've been here. 80 pct of the time we get Adelaides weather around 30 hours afterwards, its the direction the weather travels here. So if you had been in Adelaide 30 hours before your visit, there is an 80 pct chance it would have been raining there. I personally would prefer 4 days of -1 than 4 days of plus 40. There again I've had to work outdoors for 21 years of my time here. |

Re: Current Temperatures in Melbourne
I think you will find most Australian's would rather it were not 40 plus for 5 days on't trot. but they put up with it as it passes by in a few weeks. In the Uk you get that uncertainty you could be in a cold, grey, gloomy period for 4 months.
Each to their own, id rather rug up and endure -9 than have to deal with anything over 35 degrees, its too hot for me... i stupidly rented a place last year with a 1970's rattly air con that coughed and spluttered at 30 degrees, let alone 40 in Highett. |

I definitely dont agree with that. How do you cool down when your an outside worker ?

Re: Current Temperatures in Melbourne
Yes, Melbourne is hot right now. It was about this hot this time last year. It may well be this hot again next year. Buy a fan or some Air Con. This isn't England. Move along.

I CAN'T HELP BUT POINT OUT that aren't the current, ridiculously, insanely, dangerously, cancerously hot temperatures in Melbourne RIGHT NOW something of a retort to all those who endlessly protest that Australia is better than England/Scotland/Wales "cos it has a 'better' climate"?!

Winston Chirchill even had a saying about them, something along the lines of "the greatest argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with an average person" |

I arrived in September 2008 and can't really recall a day without blue skies. (as well as living here before for a few years in the late nineties) |
