8 degrees is OK, 6 is bearable, but 4 degrees is cold and that's what it's got down to in my area some mornings. Canberra apparently has gotten down to minus 4 which is probably tolerable for those with airconditioning who don't have to go outside.

I read this morning that there was snow in SA - that's not usual is it? For the last couple of years SA seems to be getting hit with all the extreme weather. Wasn't it hotter there than the NT at one time last year.

No it isn't. When I first came here they gave the "wind chill factor" and we had MINUS 17C several times ... after living in Sydney, that was COLD.

nah, some pedantic prick should just pull it's head in and understand that colloquially "freezing" means very cold.
