Brisbane Temp.
A mere 19.4 degrees. That was as cool as it got in the state's capital, just after sunrise, although the Bureau of Meteorology wasn't ready to call it a record just after 7am.

"There's still two hours before we record our actual minimum and there is some rain about so it could drop below," BOM forecaster James Thompson said.

"At the moment it is ... about 10 degrees above the average of 9.7 so pretty warm morning with that cloud cover around."

But when 9am rolled around and the mercury had risen to almost 21 degrees, it was official.

Nearly had to wear my summer P.J's
Jaros :cool:
 
Up here in NQ, we have had a very mild winter even a claytons winter, yesterday we got to a max of 35.2C. So maybe fingers crossed we`ll have a early start to the wet, which will unfortunately cut the prospecting year off but it should get the barras chewing. But one never knows, in the past it has done this then suddenly we`ve got a frost in September. Beautiful one day perfect the next, I don`t envy you folks that live down south, wet & cold bugger that.
 
Had a frost every morning this week in Dunolly.
Got the fire stoked up for another one tonight.
