More cold weather on the way brrrrr

Just catching up on the courier mail they say tomorrow will be our lowest recorded day this year.

Brisbane has had an 11 degree drop since Wednesday, with a 4C minimum recorded yesterday.

Weather bureau forecaster Claire Yeo said Brisbane residents would notice the change tomorrow and predicted daytime temperatures to peak at 18C.

"In the daytime people will certainly feel like they are in Melbourne," she said.

But the night-time and early morning temperatures could ease slightly due to the wind blowing the frost away.

Weather bureau meteorologist Ann Fussell said a lack of clouds had so far kept temperatures warm during the day but freezing during the night, as the warmth was able to escape quickly in the clear air.

The winds are expected to die down, at least temporarily, later this week bringing relief from the recent icy temperatures.

I think i will be right up here thanks blaze, the last few mornings i have been feeling it (the cold) don't think i could handle your extremes. dunno a few years ago it wouldnt faze me, these days i like the comfort of warm clothes and a heater. Although fishing from a balcony sounds okay close to a fire, hope all goes well for ya
cheers

hi joe
yes should be a good get together, had to hunt the trout gear out from under years of neglect, but i reckon that it worked 15 - 20 years ago, so it should work now. trout still look the same (bloody hell, wish i did)
let you know how the trip was later
cheers
