Snow? Here? Already?

It was warm last week! What happened? We obviously had to sacrifice our heat to get that hour back over the weekend.

City braces for winter blast

Melbourne is set to get an early taste of winter, with a cold front from the Antarctic due to hit the city this afternoon.

Weather bureau duty forecaster Stuart Coombs said the front, which was moving over Portland in the state's south-west, would hit Melbourne early this afternoon, bringing cold and squally west-to-south-westerly winds, showers and local hail and thunder.

We apparently got a mini tornado up here in Woodridge the other day, and some guy got snapped by lightning.

It's been so unseasonably warm the last couple of days, I've actually had to turn on the aircon. (I got aircon!!) And of course then, the area surrounding mine had thunderstorms and hail the size of the 20c coin...We, as usual, got none of that. Just a bit of thunder, a bit of lightning and some bird piss you could hardly classify as rain.

Ho hum.
