I’m kind of hoping that winter ends sooner. These temps feel more like July than June. Not having a proper autum this year really messed up my sense of reference.
I do remember some frightfully cold June days before but certainly not a whole week of it and especially after such a warm autumn. I agree, I kind of feel like we’ve fast-forwarded a bit here… I don’t think I could do 3 months of this. Definitely going to try and escape over July/August if I can
IIRC we had few mild winters through the covid era so it’s a bit annoying to go back to this. I do remember my first couple winters in Melbourne 10-11 years ago being this cold around mid June though (not in terms of perception but recorded temps) - but then April and May were substantially cooler than this year.
If money weren’t an option I’d be going off to some nice Pacific island to unwind but I will probably go hang out with my crazy family in Perth for a bit while I figure out what next in life. Not that warm but nowhere near as cold as here… might even do a road trip up to northern WA to see some fam up there.

I do recall some pretty warm June days, high teens low 20s, not that long ago.
We generally don’t really run the fireplace until mid-late June…been been running it for a few weeks now.
This year has definitely been bizzare.
You’re right though. If this keeps on till August, we might be looking at a week or so somewhere warmer
