here in Sydney is it allegedly early spring.

Today we had 30 on the harbour near where I live, with our western suburbs (usually a few degrees higher) a few degrees cooler. If you prefer degrees F. instead of Celcius, double + add 30 to get an idea of our day.

We also have a crop of nasty summer fires in other parts of the country - as winter has been very dry across the country we can expect a very bad fire season when summer gets here, tho perhaps it is already here.
