Discussion: Arm warmers

I hear it was around 2 degrees in Canberra this morning :-)

Unfortunately I only have 1 arm warmer currently due to multiple moves. So not cool, or warm in this case.

You'll need more than just arm warmers at that temperate (and it's still summer!)

You saw the snow falls at Perisher, Thredbo?

3cm at falls creek, saw a video of someone mtb in the snow at thredbo!

Summer snow on the peaks isn't as rare as everyone seems to think it is on the one or two occasions per summer that it usually happens, but it's definitely less common in February (or even March) than it is in December.

The 2.8 at Canberra on Tuesday morning is a February record, with a caveat that the site moved in 2010 to a location that is substantially (1-2 degrees) colder on cold nights, especially in the warmer months. Canberra's record lows for all three summer months have now been set since the site move.

Only 10 degrees last night in Perth is that a record low for February?

Close but no cigar at the metro site (10.1 - record is 9.9), although at the airport, which has a much longer data set, it was 2.1 degrees above the record.
