If you're in NSW, your next couple of months might be survivable, unlike central Europe. I don't envy you in January, though.

Last week we got 18" of snow. 6 days later and it's 72F. My favorite season is being erased.

I have no idea how much this is, but damn! (._.)

Edit: OK, it's 45.75cm & 22°C (295K for the Kelvin enjoyers)... Well your regional climate is certainly fucked lol

Yes, thank fuck it's no longer 30°C. I know, it's weather and not climate (hence the title) but we are expecting such heatwaves to get more conmon :( Just trying to connect the incomprehensible scale of global warming to something relatable.
