The perma-drought continues....indeed it has got so bad that most midwest rivers are above flood stage.

Ratty - are you OK down there? "Southern Queensland towns record coldest May morning Several May temperature records have been broken with a winter blast hitting southern Queensland overnight. Applethorpe, Oakey and Dalby have all had their coldest May mornings on record. The temperature plummeted to -6.1 in Applethorpe, –2.1 degrees below its previous record 13 years ago. Oakey near Toowoomba dropped to -4.4, which was 0.3 of a degree cooler than its previous record in 2006. Dalby on the Western Downs had its coldest morning since 1911, recording -3.6. Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Gabriel Branescu said it was milder in the state's south-east. "In Brisbane, while it was 8 degrees this morning, with the chill factor it felt like less than five degrees," he said. "The feel like temperature at the airport in Brisbane was -1."www.abc.net.au/news/2019-05-31/cold-morning-in-southern-queensland/11166790

In Queensland they have mandatory vents to the outside open all year.
Lived in Sydney many years ago had one of the coldest winters in a house in my life.
So no!

Strangely, they have a similar rule in Scotland of open vents from the sub-floor space to the outside. They have a rather strange idea of what is 'warm' too, as I found moving back from Germany where temperatures had been steady in the 35C level to find the Scots neighbours all out sunbathing in a 'frigid' 18C

Uk is entering a very wet forecast week. Feeling very june '07 like which is appropriate considering our position in the solar cycle. The bitter winters starting '09 still leaves us theoretically 2 years to a similar point. Of course....it'd be unlikely that the weather would follow such a pattern so easily, just because thats what happened before is not proof itll happen that way again. What will happen?? Were completely unable to say!! All i know for sure is models are not reliable more then 5 days out right now. Beyond that is conjecture.

At 10 C the bikinis came out in Anchorage. But we didn't do anything silly like waste heat to the outside.

Electroverse is reporting that Central England is "trending" towards it's 17th coldest June in the 360 year record. I'd say that be below the 10th percentile there Albert. 😀
