Is It Really Winter?

Sometimes I wonder if I live in the same country as the weather man. Record snowfalls, coldest temperatures on record and power cuts for the last 2 weeks have featured in the news this week. But amazingly all the really bad waether has happened in places much further north. Take todays weather for example. A heavy frost overnight but as all locals know whenever there is a heavy frost in Dunedin the weather is always fine.

So is it really winter here? Yes but nothing as bad that experienced in Canterbury or the North Island so far.

By the way I'm not complaining about the weather. I just want to see some snow around here!
