Just a little breezy at the moment in Townsville.
A gust of wind of 26kph just slammed a door downstairs a little while ago. No rain since last night (6.5mm in the gauge from 7am yesterday). Is a bit humid though (70%).

Port Elliot SA.
Howling, cold wind straight off the southern ocean here right now.
Overcast, but rain not expected.
14 degrees in the van so I've just turned the heater on.
Supposed to get back to high 20s next week.

Close to perfect here in Brisvegas.
Clear blue skies with just a hint of breeze. 23.6 degrees .. can you beat that? Max expected 32.
Grass green still from all the recent rain. Tanks are full & the vege garden blooming.
What am I doing sitting around the suburbs rather than enjoying it all out bush somewhere beside a watercourse cooking up a breakfast of B&E over an open fire.

Hi BW
To answer this question
Where do you find the little bubble key , for Degs.C.
You have to use a keyboard, hold down the ALT key, and then type in 167 (from the side and not the top number keys) then let go of the ALT key to get º
It is known as ASCII code
It probably will not work with phone/tablet/iphone/small laptop without numbered side keypad
Hope that this info is useful

Well buggar me .. it worked º see . ASCII. American Standard Code for Information Interchange !!!
.Takes me back to when I used to sometimes maintain teleprinters and all that sort of stuff - eg. model 15, model 100 & Sagem. Training courses where we had to strip them right down & re-assemble them over a 3 week period. Also had to name all the parts like eg. 'Pull Bar Bail Plunger Adjusting Screw Lock Nut'. It was only 60 years ago & I recall that it was coloured Purple (of course) on the very modern overhead transparency.

Bugger me ... I just can't imagine being in a caravan in the conditions of the previous couple of posts.
Here in Brissy it was 9 to 22 ... no wind or rain.
Tropical down pour in the middle of summer ... that's OK but cold & wet no way.

Never noticed minus here in Canberra. Nice toasty warm bed. Got up this morning, sun shining brightly, not a cloud in the sky. Calm as. Just like the winter days we used to have. Beautiful.

At the moment we have a down grade cyclone swinging past the very South West corner. Still dark outside - winter right ! Wind is howling but quite warm. There's been quite a bit of rain. We had something similar cross the S/W corner about a month ago. In fact there's been quite a few 'low cells' make it down here for the last 6 or 8 months. It's a La Nina thing. Warm water in the Northern Indian Ocean sending complex low pressure systems down our north west coast. Very, very rare that they make it down this far though. A few night's ago there was a line of brass monkeys outside my door..., looking for a welder !

Typical beautiful winter's day here in Brissy.
14 degrees max predicted 20, blue sky with a slight breeze.
So it's window washing today for me .. Bit of a wet task to reach the outside of the top story windows. No job for a windy day like yesterday.
It would be perfect to be out in the van beside a nice bit of water, billy boiling & the camp oven sitting nearby, ready for tonight's cook up.
The view from my window of the Murray near Murray Bridge is beautiful, but it's 'bitey' if I go outside

It's been a close to perfect SE Queensland winter's day today.
Woke up to blue sky, just cool enough to encourage us to stay in bed till circa 9am. The temp managed to get up to around 22 at our place with a very mild breeze.
I should be out by a riverbank in the van (he says once again).
