Crazy Weather All Over Australia.

It is blowing a gale here, strong winds are coming down from the north west. Later today we are expecting a dry south westerly change which means the winds will remain but the humidity will drop away. Cleaning the pool right now is a bit like painting the Sydney Harbour Bridge, it is so big that as soon as you finish painting it you have to go back and start all over again straight away. However it is warm (about 27 right now at 10 am). This photo was taken a couple of hours ago and shows the palms in our backyard bending in the wind. It was too windy for me to ride!

Sydney, 1000k's south of us also has strong westerly winds which are blowing red dust from Central Australia all over the place. Sydney is having a 'red out'. This photo below was copy/pasted from the internet this morning.

Some parts of Victoria are having heavy rain and other parts of south east Australia have reported hail as big as tennis balls.

Trish is into Brisbane today to catch up with Irene who is visiting relations there. Irene is from Victoria. I will just 'bum around', cleaning the pool and enjoying the warm weather. Hopefully the pool will crack 26 degrees today as it warms up in the warm weather.
