Make that 3, Winter's the best!
Better sleep, no daylight saving and footy season!
Seems warmer to me than when I was a kid though, have no issue with walking the dog after work in a short sleeve top.
Never seen to have to scrape ice off the car these days like I used to also

Been the coldest "dry season" I can remember up here. 88 was the coldest I could recall previously

We haven't had a minimum temperature above 20 degrees this month (ave so far is 16.7 when the Jul average is normally 19.3). Last year we averaged 20.6 and we thought it was a good dry compared to the previous two.

We've had three days of 30 degrees temperatures when the average is normally 30.7 and last year the average was 32.3.

They're not forecasting much change for the rest of the month.

Talking to old timers and they cant recall it being this "cold" up here either

So in a nutshell it's colder all over this year.

I prefer cold to heat, always say you can always put an extra jumper on, there's only so much you can take off

Having the doona on basically all month has been nice.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Summer for me

Not cold - as I get older my body is telling me that I don't like winter at all.
No heaters having to try to stay warm
Daylight saving is the best
and no footy (juniors committee member here!)
LOVE fruit mince pies

Someone on a recent podcast I listened to mentioned spring, but I suffer from hayfever, so I am one of those that like spring but my eyes and nose don't.

I do love the crisp cold mornings because at least you can do something outdoors. I think it's cos I long for the sun!
