Yup, total crap, with nothing on the horizon.
Unless you are getting sucked in by the green arrows next Wednesday, which I'm not.

Guys, there is hope:

"The sun will sit higher in the sky through the day. This will bring greater solar heating to the Australian continent," Mr Zadnik (Weather Channel meteorologist) said.
"This intense solar heating of the land contrasts with the still relatively cool surrounding seas, which in turn leads to stronger sea breezes for coastal areas

i think that might just be a generalisation of what happens in summer compared with winter

Just need some blue sky, though I've actually forgotten what that looks like.
I'm getting used to paddling in the rain.

Crap, is that what those funny things growing on my neck are.
Nicer day today, actually saw some intermittent sun, have minor hope for tomorrow.
Have decided to piss off and work more, and plan on having more time off after Xmas.
Spring is not shaping up to be legendary.

We thought we saw a UFO to day there was a really bright light in the sky but then we realized it was only the sun.

Usually one of my favorite months of the year when you can start to get out in the sea breezes after winter.

Five sessions last year in September all with reasonably strong winds, only 2 so far this month, come on North easters where are you

Turns out I had just forgotten to take my pills, and was just hallucinating about the hot yellow thing in the sky.
Everything is back to grey, dreary, drippy normal today.
Or would like me to tell you what I really think ??

September has been awesome for smoke rings though.

I believe yesterday afternoon we got our first real seabreeze? perhaps 10 knot gusts but a real seabreeze.
