It wouldn't be an Arisia without the weather.

According to Channel 7 news this evening, the long range weather forecast.

"Winter returns with a vengeance at the end of next week."

Now what this means they did not elaborate on. It could mean frigid cold, it could mean snow. It could mean absolutely nothing at all this far in advance, as anything that might be coming at us could fizzle out before it gets here.

But so far the Channel 7 weather crew have been pretty good this winter.

Plan accordingly...

Hey, I was snowbound at Arisia a few years ago... It was fun, in our top floor hotel room, listening to the blizzard wind howling outside. And looking out the window and not being able to see the street below because it was snowing so hard. And don't forget the snowman I made with the snow that blew in under the door in the art show.



It wasn't fun to come home to four foot snow drifts that had to be shoveled before we could get in the house.

Crampons don't help much when you are driving :/

Neither do jumper cables and a fire extinguisher

... but I keep both in the back, just in case. Oh, and snow tyres.

The other stuff helps a lot when I'm driving to mountains that are covered in white, fluffy goodness.
