Quite a few trees down in the wind last night, so plenty of firewood work for a while.. The biggest trees would have around 10 cord of wood each.
A couple of photos showing downed trees, and a third showing "snow cloud" further up the valley. Snow level was at about 700 metres last night, although there was frozen rain this morning.
I see that Rwood bloke is in his usual denial mode but then whats new
Should see him on the other NZ forums, people are afraid to offend him, not me - thank god for freedom of speech
Drivel. NZ local weather forum moderators and other members praise me for my contributions, especially the old NZMS monthly summaries. As for weatherforum.org, it has a cabal of climate change deniers who get no mercy from the rest of us - not that they give up their inane utterances.
After a week or so, it felt very mild here today. I made a walk with 13ºC outside, wearing only a light sport jacket and i didn't felt any cool at all.
In Patagonia, it was another cold day in Maquinchao. Last 9 days there and the snow accumulated it hasn't melted yet:
Not bad for a place in SH at same latitude of New York, right? I think even the newyorkers cold lovers would sign a week of temps like that with their eyes closed.

Wow,Central Patagonia are really amazing,I think Maquinchao has the same Annual average low as New York(-13C) or even lower,the difference is NYC can get lower negative highs,for example -7C/-13C,while in Maquinchao and most of Patagonia are something like 4C/-13C,with great difference between day and night,Balmaceda for example dont registered any ice day yet this winter,but yet in its coldest day got +6/-14C.
There are a place ,80km South of Maquinchao,at Rio Negro/Chubut Border,looking on Google earth most of its are at 1600m,always when I look at climate models,it are one of the coldest places in Patagonia(Outside the High Andes of Course),during cold shots ,models shows -20C/-25C to there,unfortunately there arent any weather station,that the problem,im surely that a lot of places in Central Patagonia can get very cold and yet have some summer,but we cant record it.
Also this July are finishing most below normal on Southern South America,expect for Southern Patagonia and some parts of Chile,most of Brazil above average too,including here,the drought helped on it.

The storms in Northeast US are insane,the Low pressure moves from Pacific and cross all the US until Northeast? this Storm that Gfs are showing comes from Pacific too,crosses Southern Bolivia,Paraguay them comes along the Jet Stream to the Coast of Southern Brazil,in the same time an High pressures coming from South sits on Northern Argentina/Paraguay and brings cold weather,this is the classic setup of Winter Storms in Southern Brazil.
But thats too far,I dont think will happens,this storm would historic,maybe stronger than the one of 2013.
