  2. the smoke haze has been around for the last 7 days now. When I ride the train into the city, the skyline is basically a hazy sillohette against a milky sky, quite beautiful really. You can also smell the smoke. Other than that, it's been mostly sunny for the last few days, with morning fogs 21ºC at 2:20pm, sunny with smoke haze. Lovely outside but still hot in the sun! Well that's Australian solar radiation for ya ;)

  6. omg NORTH Sweden! How colds ya winter.......and summer? it's warm, windy and cloudy, about 27 degrees 2 more days of warm then its back to cold. Crap, but good coffee drinking weather While 20 degrees is probably a heatwave for Northern Sweden, for me its cold! I'll look forward to the strongest cold front of the year, dipping the temp down to an icy 10 degrees and pigging out on fried chicken and coffee to keep one warm
  7. Reports of MUD raining from the sky, caused by rain falling through the layer of dust. ALso 2 trains have been struck by lightning. this is just 1 example of the damage done here today:
  8. Victoria's killer weather causes chaos Latest related coverage Weather Bureau warns wind gusts could hit 130km/h in parts of southern Victoria. Marika Dobbin April 2, 2008 - 3:21PM Woman killed by falling wall 200,000 homes, businesses lose power Hurricane warning from weather bureau Wild winds are wreaking havoc across Melbourne this afternoon, whipping up huge clouds of dust, causing road closures, major power blackouts, train delays and blowing people off their feet. A woman in her sixties was killed by a falling wall in a laneway next to a post office in Mentone, in Melbourne's south-east. An ambulance spokesman said paramedics were called to the scene but the woman was dead when they arrived The ceiling of an operating room ceiling at Caulfield Hospital has collapsed, the Melbourne Fire Brigade said. Part of the hospital's roof had blown off, but nobody was injured and there was no immediate danger to patients, the hospital's executive director said. A spokesman for two large providers, United Energy and Allinta, said 140,00 customers were without power due to falling power lines. Powercor's Damien Batey more than 30,000 Powercor customers had lost supply by 2pm, while up to 20,000 CitiPower customers were also hit, Mr Batey said. Metropolitan Ambulance Service spokesman Paul Bentley said ambulance crews treated a woman hit by a fallen tree in Carlton, in inner-northern Melbourne, this afternoon. The 55-year-old woman was taken to St Vincent's Hospital with minor injuries. A woman was also injured by what was suspected to be building rubble near Crown Casino in the city, Mr Bentley said. And a 33-year-old woman and her 72-year-old female passenger escaped injury when a tree fell across their car in Wantirna South. Mr Bentley said ambulance officers had also attended calls where people had been blown over by the strong winds. Police have urged anyone who does not need to be in Melbourne to avoid the city. A Victoria Police spokeswoman said: "We are asking people who are in the city, who don't need to be here, think about moving out.'' "And for those who are here for some time, they need to think about planning alternate routes.''

  20. very crap weather here, cold windy and overcast. Now that summer's over, 6 months of depression awaits now that sadly the last of the heat has left. I just can't understand why/how people here in Melb enjoy winter and always hope for rain and cold fronts. Do they like days of windchills and depressing overcast with cold windblown rain penetrating their skin?? Reading the Australian weather forums one couldn't help but to believe that. Plus they talk of the recent few days above 38ºC as if it were the end of the world. Literally. Bloody extremeist drama queens. I hate winter. HATE IT, HATE IT, HAAAAATTTEE IT!!
