[OC] I forgot July is the middle of winter when booking a trip to Sydney

Doesn’t seem like a bleak midwinter, at least.

That picture doesn’t say much. What is the weather like right now?

My attempt at comedy apparently failed. That picture was taken two weeks ago when the daytime highs were like 65F/18C, pretty much the same as it is now.

I went to Australia in July about ten years ago. It wasn’t too cold.

It’s been an unusually warm July here too this year (funny that). I’m dreading summer after seeing what’s been going on in the northern hemisphere.

I've been watching the North too so I've been slowly buying up some bottled water supplies in case the water reservoir is affected by algal bloom or gets tainted by fires again. 🔥

Summer is coming. 😅

I knew Sydney winters were mild compared to a place like Chicago but I still packed a few warm hoodies thinking it would be chilly. I definitely didn’t need them except a few nights when the temperature actually did drop.

Loved the city and surrounding areas we visited but if that’s your winter, I’m not sure I’d survive a summer visit.
