Low Level now in WA

Low Level now in WA

I have been trying to copy a picture without success but the news is that there has been low level snow in WA - near Perth I believe

This is a rare event - climate change you ask? I think so - though when I was a small child in snowed in Melbourne once - we thought we'd get a day off school but we didn't - it was cold that day

We get snow in Melbourne's eastern suburbs sometimes - rarely - certainly not in the lower areas near the city and Port Phillip Bay

What else does the weather have in store for us?

A friend who is an amateur weatherman is predicting snow in a lot of odd places this year. I definitely think climate change has caused it.

Never imagined snow in Perth @Owlunar! It sure will be interesting to see what else the future months have in store for us with weather.

Climate change is partly about extremes and not just global warming ... I will check it out. @Owlunar

Only known snow in Melbourne once, but more often in Ballarat ...

It was further south @Owlunar, near Albany, on the peaks. This is about 800kms or so away, and themps here a several degrees cooler than the city and surrounds. I've never seen snow in or close to the city. That would be a first!

Re: Low Level now in WA

This brought some interesting answers - I have forgotten to check up how things are in Perth or Southern WA over the last couple of days

But today they have a maximum of 20 and mostly sunny - which sounds okay - good even

We've had great weather for Easter in Melbourne this year -

btw - Happy Easter everyone
