The temperature is flirting with double-digits here. They're not that frequent in the city. I guess they'll have to wait for tomorrow, though, as the sun will soon be rising (it's 11:05). Precipitation is none now, but the snow outside can be knee-deep, as I experienced when I went out to feed the birds. (In my case, that's about 60-70 cm.)

Sun and 7 degrees...

It's going to rain in a few days.

WTF.

According to my Galaxy S2, the weather in Albany Creek lately has ranged between either Partly Cloudy or Partly Sunny.

Wat.

Pretty much the rest of this entire week here in western Germany is supposed to be rain, rain, rain, a few moments of total cloud cover without rain, and then some more rain.

I echo Fen's WTF.

I don't feel the warming here... having had the coldest year of my life. (I'm not saying it isn't real, though, just that it hasn't been manifesting here during the past year.)

Yesterday's temperature here in Sydney (Nova Scotia, not the hot one) was 10 degrees, Celsius. 52 freaking F for my southern cousins. Which is 10 degrees C warmer than normal daytime highs.

So sad when you have to go to Canada to get warm weather :p

And at 0 degrees C it is no longer gooy but a freaking solid block :((

HAd to wear shoes and two layers of clothing just to go out and smoke, work is going to be so much fun tonight

I think I'm an idiot. For the past two months I've been going out in my winter jacket. I keep sweating, since I'm horrible with heat. And yet I never have the decency to revert to autumn jackets because...well...maybe if I keep wearing the appropriate clothes the weather will get fixed.

Yep, it's a blizzard. Aside from light-posts, the visibility is approximately 150m.

Hoo-hah.
