lots of sunshine and clear nights, make sense since perth is somewhat close to a desert, i see a lot of variation between day and night temps(obviously because of the clear skies), it's way too warm for winter though, imo

In fact tonight we are going to get some decent rain and possible storms...i find American weather sites terribly underestimate Perths weather forecast. i would say 20-30mm tonight and tomorrow. I find it is way too warm for winter as well but it is unbelievably green here

lol. i NEVER go to weather.com if i'm going to Europe or something to look for the weather forecasts. weather.com is probably the most innacurate site there is for international weather.
i actually LIKE bare trees, i don;t know why. i find it beautiful when there's a forest full of bare trees and it's cloudy and about to snow, i guess it's more of a winter feel or something
