Well, my previous rant did wonders seeing that the lovely, soothing and beautiful rains started to fall yesterday (Thursday) morning and didn't stop until about an hour ago (Friday evening)
Very nice to see/hear it and good bloody riddance to that evil foul dry dusty air and seeing nasty murderous bush-fires extinguished for the time being
Around 50mm have fallen in my area and great to see lawns greening up very rapidly.
No more having to look at disgusting dead, crunchy and ugly brown lawns
Haven't seen the sun for two and an half days days now which has been so nice
I'm not missing the sun at all after suffering too much of it during October and last month
I'm a very happy Vegemite right now
I'm laughing at the criminally insane heat/sun/drought lovers that have completely taken over a certain Oz forum, hilarious because they're total idiots for screaming their heads off - this is Sydney after all, not QLD .
Just because Sydney had two days of rain and cool temperatures, according to them, is Armageddon Please. Get over it
Pathetic dipsticks really
Thank you rain and cloud for making me very happy because I was quite depressed after suffering through two months of too much sun and little rain!
Oh no no no no no no!!! Just heard that horrid nasty westerly will be back tomorrow battering Sydney with dreadful 32C temps and sunshine not to mention sucking out moisture from lawns and gardens. Perpetual greenness and rain forever!!! Sun, sun, go away
Was in such a good mood until hearing the crappy news and now I'm miserable

People asks why here in Southern Hemisphere some places have such cold record lows even in late spring/summer,the answer is,cold ocean with frequent polar low pressures from Antartic who bring cold air any time of year.
Where in the world a place at sea level can get snow in summer at 55 latitude? Gfs showing an 971mb low pressure over Falklands pushing cold air into the continent,who may give snowfall to Tierra del Fuego as I posted above,according to forecasts,this will be a cold christmas for Patagonians.
Chile is "The England of South America" for a reason
I can't really see England as a good comparison at all -It's warmer per latitude, and doesn't have the huge variation in climate, rainfall amounts and distribution that Chile does- better to call Chile "The Western and Southern Europe" of South America

Precisely. As if this is at all reminiscent of England.
