The winter that wasn't

It's official.  Sydney has recorded its warmest winter on record.  Brisbane, Melbourne and Canberra also experienced a record winter. Australia's east coast cites have all reported temperatures almost two degrees above their long-term average.

Sydney averaged 14.9C over winter.  Yesterday, also the penultimate day of winter, the afternoon high reached a very pleasant 25C.  Sydney's winter got off to a wonderful start back in June.  Mum and her sister arrived in time to enjoy a week of relatively warm temperatures in the twenties.

Roll on summer!
