[Soozie]

Had to let you know, it's raining !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 Exmouth is flooded and apparently cut off, and here in Perth it's been raining for about 30 mins, no wind nothing just rain, it's lovely ... it's not cold, the rain is coming straight down it's not windy... still sat here in shorts and t shirt ... just loving the sound of the rain ... 

[Gemzee]

:) It's been raining here too....but windy and soooo cold with it! Even though the temperature has dropped in Perth since I've been over here it's still gonna feel much warmer than here!

[Soozie]

oooohhhh I don't like the cold .... it's still not cold here ... did you take your thermals with you lol .... 

[Gemzee]

Haha I've just tried to not go outside much! Lol

[Soozie]

I'm in Carson City Nevada and there is real honest to goodness snow on the ground here, must have been last night.

I've never been in Australia in the winter time, just until early May in Sydney once in the late nineties. I hear that skiing is not a big sport in Australia because you don't have seriously high mountains there, is that right?

[Ladybug]

It was raining in the morning..now the sun is out and and it's going to be a warm and beautiful day. What means I have to change cloths, it also means my tomatoes will be growing :-)

[Soozie]

Hi TAC, I've just had a quick look on google maps, I know America is very much like Oz in that it's a huge country, but Nevada isn't far from Calafornia, I've been there and think the weather is very similar to Perth ... is Nevada high above sea level ?... still can't imagine the snow ? What's going on there ?

[TAC]

We are at 5,000 feet, high desert, and yes, the climate in California is very much like southern most Australia.

 

Nevada is next door to California but our climate differences are like night and day because of our higher elevation.

[TAC]

If you look closely at the map you will see there is a mountain range along most of the California - Nevada boarder. The Lake Tahoe area is a good example of this with mountains as high as 8 to 10,000 feet.

[TAC]

The sun is out now, finally, and the snow is melting fast. There was only a dusting but snow it was indeed.

 I've never experienced the snow here, but it does snow, have a look at the snowy mountains ... I went to Thredbo a few years ago, just before the ski season started and we went to Mt Kosciuszko ... it was really lovely and really cold lol

Ok,  I haven't looked at the map for this one, but that moutain range that covers California,the Nevada Border,  is that where it says Hollywood ?, is that  the same area that we're talking about ? Please excuse my ignorance 

[TAC]

No, that's the Los Angeles basin, a long way from the state line mountain range. Some day Los Angeles will probably fall off into the ocean along with the Hollywood sign and Carson City/Las Vegas will be coastal towns LOL.

[TAC]

Good Sunday morning Soozie, it's still cold here and I think it might snow again tonight.

 

Have you ever experienced an earthquake? I've experienced about 6 quakes greater than 7.0.

[Soozie]

Good morning TAC, well the sun is shining here again and the rain has gone, but it sure gave the gardens a good watering, first rain we've had for months and months  ...
