You mean the fire in Ηλία or whatever it was called right?

Sorry to hear that Philly!

That must have been awful. The worst weather here was when it flooded a few feet

Australia has been through its fair share of disasters, or near disasters this year. First the bushfires, then two earthquakes in Melbourne and now there is actually a tsunami warning for the east coast of the country, including Tasmania, Victoria and N.S.W.

Speaking of earthquakes, we had a 7.8 and a 6.1 aftershock down in Fiordland about 3 hours ago. That'd be the cause of your tsunami warning (Details)

How big were your quakes?

umm, i think around 4 i think, so kinda minor,
aah we have just received your tsunami, thankyou for it! only small waves along the coast, strong currents expected, nighttime, so no photos of it

: Is currently cold, wet and depressing.

I hate winter.

In Humboldt, IA its been averaging 40 degrees. Cold. Rain. Very depressing. And lows in 20s sometimes waking up to snow lol

I know slacker, Southeast of England is so depressing in winter, i want it to be summer again! so we can get our heatwaves !

Meanwhile, in the grim north (well, East Midlands really) it's dry and sunny! Not very warm though. It's recently been raining ladybirds! They've been swarming in their thousands looking for places to sleep. Annoying as hell when the bumble into your face when you're riding your bike at 20mph.

Personally I love the first bite of winter. It's just a shame it doesn't get properly cold in the English lowlands... at least not with any regularity. I like wearing snow boots and big coats.

well is steady 25+ degrees celcius down here in Melbourne, coming into summer!!!

Are you kidding? Ladybirds are cool! it's the wasps and bee's that scare me
yeah winter in the UK is only good when it snows but that like only happens every 3 years.

Hells yeah! Summer wasn't too bad this year, especially August.

Currently In the D were experiencing Indian Summer it's 8C with a high today of 17C and sunny. What the he'll happened to my weather last week it was 5C for a high lol.

well, back down under, in Melbourne we have had 5 days over 35C, or 30C, on of the two, which is the second biggest heat wave at this time of year. the first in 1902, went for 10 days. All week it is going to be 29C, and then will hit 35C again!
