HaHa, the resources of the ABC only allow for quick trips outside Lonnie and Hobart, would love to see what's going on up at Leeawuleena.....

It could be 25 degrees in Burnie, i still know where i would rather be


LOL. Living in Qld this made me laugh. 25 is a bit cool to moderate in these parts

A lot of people complain about not knowing if the pinnacle road is closed on Mt Wellington, you can always check before you go at http://www.hobartcity.com.au/go/Pinnacl ... Status.php or call Hobart City Council on 6278 0200. Hope this helps.

Yeh lots of snow in the southwest today. Southern Ranges were caked all morning, then coming home at 2pm Adamsons still had a decent covering.

In reference to this thread would Taswegians regard Liawenee to be a fairly good indicator of upcoming weather for the WOJ area ? And would people regard Weatherzones 28 day forecast to be reliable?

Liawenee would be a fair indicator yes.

The 28day forecast is a joke. Pay no attention to it whatsoever except for comical reasons. It can be quite entertaining to watch how much it changes day by day... :lol:
