Andy Wright Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 The hot weather you guys are having is standard for us during the summer. Having said that, we don't have the extreme winters that you do so I reckon we would struggle with ice and snow, although we do regularly get to freezing during the winter, nothing like your winters though.Been a warm winter so far, only really started getting good rain a couple of weeks ago.We're better set up housing wise etc for hot weather but not for harsh winters whereas you guys seem to be around the other way, within reason of course.Summer down here is magic. Will get up to high 30s, low 40s celsius by early afternoon then the sea breeze comes in and feels great!Come and holiday in Western Australia! I'll show ya some old trucks too!CheersAndy Quote Whatever rubs your buddah.
