Yep, cold and dry with many more dust storms. Sand dunes developed in places like northern Tasmania and the Blue Mountains. Yet the inland rivers carried a larger load and, at times, there was lots of water around Lake Eyre and the northern Flinders Ranges. All very confusing but don't worry, people are merrily spending your taxes to work it all out.
