| 675133 | 2008-06-02 23:38:00 | Got this on my Google Desktop just now: Weather for Christchurch, NZ 39°F/3 . 89ºC Cloudy (but in Britain, that would be "Sunny Day") Wind: N at 7 mph/12 kph (I think N is S in Upsidedown Land though) Humidity: 100%/xx% (is there a metric equiv? I can't find it) Youse guys gonna have an early Winter? Where's all this global warming? Don't youse get any? :crying |

| 675135 | 2008-06-02 23:51:00 | Thats pretty normal - maybe the humidity would be a bit high. May temps for NZ were the coldest for a long time - average temps of about not much. If I find the stats I'll give you a link - can't remember where I saw it. |

| 675136 | 2008-06-03 00:02:00 | Joe: Christchurch has a very hot and, usually fairly dry, summer, but if you have any sense, you move to warmer climes in the winter . Their summers are worth a visit, but I have experienced beautifully clear winter days that even brass monkeys avoid! There is a fairly small hill called "The Port Hills" which is occasionally dusted with snow . It only requires a slight breeze blowing in your direction to send the brass monkeys scattering! The natives will tell you it's "bracing . " Foreigners call it bloody freezing! There are many days in a Christchurch winter day where the thermometer just seems to be stuck! I have heard it said that the thermometer freezes which may explain why it just refuses to rise . Christchurch has it's famous nor-wester . It's a wind that blows across the plains and by the time it reaches Christchurch there is no moisture left but it has picked up plenty of warmth . Lovely weather for the tourists, but notice how they stay away as winter approaches . I would suggest looking at the temperatures for Kaitaia, which is near the top of the North Island . It will make you feel much warmer . The natives there, fire up when the temperature drops below 15C . There are places in NZ where they have not heard of global warming . The Christchurch natives have their brains numbed by the cold at this time of year so they may not be aware . :rolleyes: |

| 675138 | 2008-06-03 00:47:00 | I'd rather be cold than hot any day. It's always easier to rug up than it is to cool yourself down when its 30+ deg in the summer. Any you get to ski! She's all good! ;) | wratterus (105) | ||
