Lewis I will concede that, yes, it has been warmer than recent past years at least in terms of the minimum over night temps. No light frost here at all this winter, which is unusual, but it has made up for it by seemingly lower daytime highs, and high humidity. I am going to have to gurney my driveway to kill off the algae growing on it.
Winter is traditionally our heavy flu season, and thankfully there were far fewer flu cases this year, due to a combination of high innoculation rates and social distancing (people obviously heeded the advice to get their flu shots). So i believe Spring will be fairly healthy for us, well maybe anywhere but Melbourne.
But let's not turn this thread into another doom and gloom virus rant, there is much to look forward to.
