I was going to mention the weather as an inducement to all you northern
hemisphere types, but the day I sent that announcement out we had a brief but
very spectacular 'tornadic event' of 90km hour winds.
But yes, I can say with a high degree of certainty that it won't be snowing.
cheers,
Being Canberra, I wouldn't bet on it...

As I type this in Denver, there are many reports of wind gusts in the 60 mph
range with a few reports of gusts over 80 mph. Highest report: 92mph!

We're past small dog warning, I think they about to issue the small people

Not quite that windy here in Wyoming.
Anyone have links to Cons in the Rocky Mountain States?
