I was out picking grapes at at the local vineyard as part of our RFS fund raising at 7am this morning. The temp was 3.2 and didn't get much better. It was blowing a gale as well so I'd reckon the wind chill was in the minus.

On the positive side it was good incentive to get through 14 rows of Pinot Noir grapes in about 3 hours.

Cheers

the weather in Canberra has been absolutely shocking, although what makes it worse is that in between the very fast moving rain clouds, there are very small clear pockets, and the seeing looks really good.

Was looking good in Perth clear all day then cloud starting rolling in around 4:00pm and it's still hanging around no wind to speak of so if it ain't gone by 6:00 then blows my chances of setting up for imagining as I've got work tomorrow.

Cheers
