How many more record cold periods do we have to endure before the warmists start to recognise that we are not suffering "catastrophic climate change"? The planet has not warmed since 1998, but the money-making alarmists are still peddling their lies.
From the ABC:
Cold snap sets new record low temperatures
The weather bureau says an extreme cold front has broken a series of low temperature records for Canberra, Goulburn and the Snowy Mountains.The southern tablelands and Victoria's Alpine region have also been hit by the summer chill.
A rapidly moving cold front from Antarctica moved though Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT yesterday.
The icy and changeable weather delivered a low of -4 degrees Celsius and a dusting of snow to the Snowy Mountains.
Forecaster Sean Carson says the snow is unseasonable, but not rare.
"In fact, it was only three to four years ago they had a 20cm centimetre fall in January," he said.
In Canberra, the mercury dropped to 1.6C, eclipsing the record of 1.8C set in 1956.
Goulburn experienced -0.1C, beating the previous record January low of 1.4C.
The front has now moved east over the Tasman Sea.

I think our weather is cooler here too. The number of nights where the temperature dips below freezing seem to be much more frequent than ever before. .

Snow in summer is very rare in any part of Australia.I didn't read about it in any of the media, which tends to follow a catastrophic warming line, but 2011 in Australia was as average as you can get- our mean temperature was the 51st warmest (or coldest) in 102 years of records.Here in Narrabri we are undergoing the coolest and wettest (in terms of number of days with rain if not in absolute rain fall) summers I have seen in 21 years.
