Has it been snowing near you?

james22 · 09-07-2008, 12:50 PM

Hey people.

Thought I would just chuck some photos up of some recent snow falls here in orange overnight. Has anyone else around had the white stuff fall???

tex · 09-07-2008, 12:51 PM

Yep, been snowing for the last few weeks on and off.

james22 · 09-07-2008, 12:53 PM

Interesting to drive in lol. Usually takes me 6 - 8mins to drive to work. This morning it took double the time. Not too many tracks in the road when I left for work this morning.

Awesome pics James, its not snowing here in Sunny QLD

: but its bloody cold 15 degrees but not as cold as back home though

sgt_doofey · 09-07-2008, 12:57 PM

Sorry mate, haven't had any falls here in Adelaide recently. I wonder how it's going up in Darwin or Far North Queensland for that matter?

Lol, thats bloody summer for orange lol. No wonder everyone looks at me weird when I'm walking around in Brisbane in a singlet on a 15 *C day, when everyone is wearing jumpers

:

Currently sitting on 3 *C here, and the windchill would have to be minus 5 - 10

**DJM83** · 09-07-2008, 02:05 PM

Ah i dont miss any of that stuff, im freezing here mate and its 15 degrees. Didnt take much to climatise. Wheres the XR mate chuck some pics up of that covered aswell or is she tucked away.

Just looking at The Bom your damn right it is cold down there

james22 · 09-07-2008, 02:18 PM

Yeah she's tucked away nice and tight, well she was when I took the pics this morning. Wouldn't want her to catch a cold

: At the moment shes at work with me though, but its not snowing right now.

**FTE217** · 09-07-2008, 02:24 PM

frigging cold here in Sydney,can't wait for winter to be over hate it.....good pics james,at least you don't need to mow the lawn hehe

**Peuty** · 09-07-2008, 02:28 PM

No it hasn't, but christ it feels like it's going to!

Yellow_Festiva · 09-07-2008, 02:36 PM

LOL I heard about that on the radio this morning.

Tomorrow I'm heading off to Cowra for the day, perhaps i'll run into some snow along the way in the upper mountains?

Will be armed with my camera either way ;)

MAGPIE · 09-07-2008, 02:36 PM

Had some here (Sth Island, NZ) a couple a weeks ago, and some cold frosts since (-6c), on the upside the Boss loves the cool weather, brings new meaning to CAI

tex · 09-07-2008, 02:39 PM

You lot are all soft.

It was -11 at Liawene late last week. Daytime high 2 degrees.

MotherNatureVer2 · 09-07-2008, 02:49 PM

We havent got snow, its raining.... If we were any higher it would be snowing for sure. Im wondering if Nuggets place down the road has snow though .... it is known to snow there.

Great shots James.

Lithgow is rather chilly too ......Yellow_Festiva...... http://www.eldersweather.com.au/nsw/...elands/lithgow will be a cool trip for you :P

Feathers · 09-07-2008, 02:57 PM

Hmmm. Hopefully I'll forget how cold it will be when I eventually get to take my holiday to Helsinki in the middle of their winter. Pitch black 24/7 for 51 days and never even gets close to being on the + side of 0.

james22 · 09-07-2008, 03:20 PM

Here we go, some better photos during the day. These are up on the mountain between Orange and Cowra as such

BeltFed_V88 · 09-07-2008, 03:27 PM

Its been pretty cold here in Melbourne...rain on and off.

Also i have a question! My dad has an EL Falcon 4ltr. Is it possible to replace the heads with the 3.9ltr heads off the EA model? I heard it gives it more power, not sure if its true or not.

Cheers

Well if your heading down this way mate, take it easy through the mountains, and especially Cargo Rd between Orange and Cowra. Very well known to Ice right up and cause a lot of grief.

P.S - Awesome photos everyone

**DJM83** · 09-07-2008, 03:36 PM

Nice snowman james

Ask your question in the Post Classic section, or even the E series area. You'll get more answers.

Welcome to the forums by the way!

Nah, he's just searching for a large glass of scotch to go with that ice cube.

No snow yet, but it has been cold enough to turn the fans off at night...

BeltFed_V88 · 09-07-2008, 05:47 PM
