Weather where you are?

Endless subtropical kinda rain here in Melbourne - loads of floods, many flight cancellations. Just totally waterlogged. I heard that Yea residents near the river can't get out and must move to higher ground - that'd be the Goulburn River.
 
For months they talked up crazy heat and bushfires this summer, to quiten the comments about so much rain and wrong forecasts apparently they just noticed the sea temp off eastern Oz is 2 degrees about normal. It's a new thing called a Sea Temperature Heat Wave, way more evaporation producing lots more rain.
 
now the weather folks are predicting minus 39 Celsius by Friday January 12, 2024 here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I am out of here that morning for a couple of weeks on Vancouver Island where it will be much more temperate, no colder than 0 C or maybe minus 6 C at the worst, which is still a big deal for Victoria, especially if it snows, will shut the entire city down......
 
You’re right Paul! Had a conversation with my brother-in-law, also in Calgary tonight. He’s down to -37 we are toasty in Barnsley at -3.
No need for heated gloves yet.....

the dog is refusing to go outside, when "helped' out the door to go relieve himself he tries to keep as many paws of the ground as he can......

30c, partly cloudy, feels like 45c to me.

I’ve just finished playing Tetris with Five bikes in my trailer, sweating like a pig now.

I have a Yamaha MT09SP onboard, I’m very impressed, acro exhaust and the triple sounds great! Very impressed, except the seat looks like the designers had a day off.

We appreciated the old labels round here. While other brands are wanking on about “kauri gyles” and “brewers art” blah blah, VB had the most comforting small print:
“Contents: Beer”
 
Call it what you want, but it is really bad beer. Prefer James Boag's.
Even our shitty west end was better but now that its made in Victoria can only get better.
 
Boags Premiumn used to be a fave - love the hopsy flavour. These days I'm into James Squire Broken Shackles or Golden Ale - their Porter was a ripper - seems to have disappeared. And I think they were bought out by one of the big Brauistas anyway.
