Climate change?

I've been sceptical about the climate change thing in the past, but this has me thinking.
It's half way through October, it's spring time, and I have the loft shut up as much as I can, we have the heaters on full bore and it is very cold out there.
Not much above freezing.
For those of you not familiar with this corner of Australia, we should be in shorts and tee shirts.
Something is going on, for sure.

The opposite here Murray. It’s mid October and still in tee shirts. It was 20c today. Sunny and clear. Birds are still out flying this evening at 15.41. Sunsets in another half an hour.

Only 14c here in York Andy and had a chill in the wind. I had more than a t-shirt on here.

It worries me looking at the trees around here they are still fully green and not dropping any leaves.....when will autumn hit? Are we going to be in for a late spring next year? Hmmm

Morning all,
It's 1.4 degrees here this morning. :shock:
It's weird. It's like all the heat has been transferred to the northern hemisphere.
