While we’re on things meteorrollligyy , where out at the airport is the BOM site located. I suspect once it would have been in a paddock all by its pat malone, but now ? There are buildings everywhere.

I ask this as the one out at Monash used to sit in a paddock by itself, but is rapidly being enclosed by the Goodwin retirement village.

When we moved to Canberra in 1970, 2CA (then at 64 Northbourne Ave) used to announce the current temperature “under the tea tree”. A few years later I went there on work experience and they showed me the thermometer under the tree in the rear car park. In 1976 they began sourcing their temps from the BOM.

5DN in Adelaide had a similar temp announcment in the late 60’s . Theirs was ‘ out under the old olive tree”.
( Geez those were the days. Only worry was getting enough cash together every month to pay me ESANDA loan on me Morris 850 )

Old site was here. New site is here.

Ah , interesting. Thank you Davo 101. I wonders when they will relocate the Monash site. The readings may be becoming corrupted due to the closeness of retirement village.

Braidwood has returned from the Twilight Zone.

Braidwood has shifted to Dunsinane:

Macbeth:  Bring me no more reports; let them fly all;
Till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane
I cannot taint with fear.

lay on, mcpoetix,
and fie on he who first cries ‘hold! enough!’

BOM promotes the idea of climate change so nothing about them would surprise me.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know you’re gonna start believing it yourself if you keep this up. Sort of a kind of self-hypnosis thing!

Can’t really add anything except to say that a fault’s been reported; no idea how long it will take to get fixed (depends in part on whether it’s something that can be fixed remotely – often when the AWSs stop reporting it’s a communications problem – or something that needs someone to go there). In the meantime, if you’re hanging out for a southeasterly Nerriga’s a good place to keep an eye on.
