Melbourne weather... what do I say?

For those who have been to, or live(d) in Melbourne, you know exactly what I mean. For the rest of you, it's something you have to see to believe.

The weather in this fine, fine city changes so much that it's easy and normal to expect up to four seasons in a day. Just when you think it's time to put that winter coat away for another year, it starts pouring with rain and blowing icy cold winds from the antarctic, followed closely by warm northly winds from the deserts of central Australia. All of this happens before lunchtime on a Tuesday, and it's always so hard to prepare for.

This week is no different. It's been miserable and rainy, then hot and sunny, then overcast and windy, all in an afternoon. Today is the first solid nice day in a good 2 weeks, but I dare to wonder when the weather will do something crazy again.

In Melbourne we don't have seasons, just weather, and despite its frustrating aspects, it's one of the most awesomely unique things about this place. Love it or hate it, it's Melbourne :).
