Sydney is so unpredictable. I’m at work and it was crazy hot around lunch time. But the weather died down two hours later and it started raining 😩😩
Which will hold greater rule over you? Your fear or your curiosity?

Don't know what you're all on about,  I've got blue sky dotted with fluffy clouds and bright summer sunshine

I cut short a hike this afternoon because approaching thunder (and black clouds) suggesting staying out in the hills was a bad idea.  Then got no more thunder and hardly any rain before it decided to turn sunny :( and :)
;)

Absolutely abhor Melbourne's unexpected and abnormal sudden change in weather -___-
Sucks to live in Australia just because of the weather :[

Fun fact: When we were trying to lure the British out here post-WW2, one of the selling points was that we had better weather than them.  And on balance I probably prefer Melbourne weather to much of the UK (haven't lived there, but have heard the complaints).

Come over to the sunny side now. Australia, a great place for families, an opportunity for you, fine for your wife, great for your children.

OK, I have a couple of grandparents who migrated from UK to Melbourne back then - I guess I'm not sorry they came :)

To be fair, the ads might not have been focusing on Melbourne specifically:


Any NSW teachers on here?  Is that a fair and accurate impression of your job? :P
How about yours, Aaron?

Its hot and humid. The surprising thing is that there's so much dust in the air at the moment. I can't see the sun and they look like fog but it's really dust. Why is it when I come back over the mountains from Sydney, the weather is the complete opposite.

So it was heavily raining a while ago and now it's sunny.

Really loving the humidity here -_-

The forecast said I was about to be brutally murdered by Melbournes storm cycle, but all I saw were grey skies and unexpected daggers of UV.
And now the mosquitoes have eaten my hands.
And arms
And feet
And NECK MOSQUITOES WHY

Add mosquitoes to my list of ‘Things in Australia That Want To Kill You’ right next to the weather. :(

Yes!!! Mozzies are the epitome of Australian wildlife! After getting back from overseas, they didn't even show me a day of mercy before attacking me.  :'(

Sometimes I think they like certain blood types more than others, as I am a usual target.

A little about the weather (not to derail the weather thread  ;D) : I feel like mosquitoes are more active in humidity.

The roof of a train station blew off and hit my train (I think, I heard a thud) and landed on the train tracks today. It was sunny in the morning.

What the heck was today even?

Got caught bad in the rain last night driving through Melbourne. Kings way was completely flooded, so I had to drive through a foot of water. Genuinely not kidding, a car and a log floated past me when I drove through.
