Still feels like Winter....

Perth, Australia

It is Spring here. I can't speak for other states in Australia because I haven't been paying attention to their weather but as far as where I live, it still feels like Winter. There have been a few days here and there where it was pretty hot. But majority of Spring so far has been so cold. Even as I type this the wind is howling outside and it's pouring down with rain. It hailed a little bit during the day too. Our Winter seemed so dragged out. As much as I love Winter, even I was so sick of it. Judging from people I've spoken to here and on Facebook, it really does seem as if the weather is all messed up all over the world. What Season is it where you are and is it acting like it's normal self or is it a bit all over the place? Unusual even?

What is this winter you speak of? It’s a very foreign word here in these parts where I live. Can you please explain this foreign concept to me?

@VivaLaDani13 As a matter of fact, the sun is NOT shining here today! It's completely overcast, cool, and it's been drizzling all day (a cold front that was pushing through from the north stalled over us). By the time Monday rolls around, it will be sunny and hot again!

Rains and believe me, we never had this long a rainy season. I have loads of work outside, but all of it is held up because roads are bad (Indian issue), lots of potholes and filth all around (sewers overflow since there are no separate rain water drains).

@VivaLaDani13 As it they heard me complain, they stopped. :) Good folks in this city did not get to pollute air with fireworks. Our capital is reeling under badly polluted air.

@vandana7 That sounds awful! And yeah rain can surely slow down a lot of work that needs to be done outside! I hope the weather can be nice soon so things can get done there!

@TiarasOceanView Nice! I love Winter too but more in the mood for sunny weather right now. Just to be a bit more warmer as our Winter felt so dragged out. Hard to get clothes washed and dried too.

Our last winter lasted a bit long, after many years. But we liked it as we face a very hot summer- with temperatures crossing 45 C in May/June. Now the winters are picking up. The morning and night are a bit cold - 17 / 18 C butvthe days are pleasant.

@VivaLaDani13 That is not good news. You should have nice weather and we are going into winter weather. I wonder if global warming has something to do with this. I remember when we were suppose to have spring I think it was last year or the year before it felt like winter was extending here into spring and it went from winter into summer instead of spring and then summer. Maybe that is what is happening there.

@Hannihar I usually love the cold. I love rain a lot! Just the cold has been going on for too long that I'm kinda sick of it right now. Some warmer weather would be nice right now. If it's not Global Warming, then something else is seriously messed up.

@VivaLaDani13 I hate it and I know we need rain here in Jerusalem but I prefer to be inside when it does rain. We still have nice weather here. I do not know but we had winter longer too and it went into summer and skipped spring.

It's winter here. Temperature is gradually dropping. I think we are in 20s at this point. It started out on time but probably the season will drag on like it has been doing the past couple of years. And like last year, we are again under National Emergency. Our National Capital (Delhi) is literally a gas chamber at this point. The air in Delhi is badly affecting North India. It's my neighbouring city hence we are also under National Health Emergency. Schools and colleges have been closed due to that. Situation is so bad that almost all the major northern Indian cities are in the top 10 world's most polluted cities. Even other world leaders are taking notice and commenting on it but ours are hibernating. The only leader who is also the Chief Minister of Delhi who has been actively trying to curb pollution is being pushed by his good for nothing opponents to resign from his post. The neighbouring states has their own Chief Ministers that should be doing everything they can to curb pollution but nope they are busy with blame game year after year. Nothing changes!

@Daljinder That is horrible. Vanny mentioned something about that not too long ago but I can't remember if she was saying it was around her area of other area. Because I think you two aren't living that close to each other? I hate all this blame game. It's like....just stop pointing fingers and starting doing something to reduce the problem! Why does it take so long for these "important" people to take action! Oh it's annoying!
