Woollen socks a must in NSW seasonal chill

11 Mar, 2010 07:04 AM
WOOLLEN socks weather has finally arrived in Sydney, thanks to a burst of autumnal winds that fed along the New South Wales yesterday, according to FarmOnline WeatherZone.

Sydney peaked at 30 degrees on Tuesday, five above the March norm.

But Wednesday saw a maximum almost 10 degrees lower, surely heralding the end to Hawaiian shirt season.

Other chilly locations as compared to yesterday included:

- Gosford only hit 19, seven below average and 11 degrees colder than Tuesday;

- Penrith weakly touched 21 degrees, 9 less than Tuesday; and

- Kiama reached 20, eight degrees nippier than Tuesday.

From Thursday southeasterly winds are expected to keep temperatures down along the NSW coastline, from Merimbula (which will reach just 21) to Newcastle (slightly warmer at 25).

Sydney itself will see the mercury peak at 23 degrees each day until Tuesday.

Yay go for the wool boys. It breathes, it soaks up sweat and keeps you warm. And it will not burn. Try lighting some with a match. Sheep reduce bush fires too so please think of them as useful friendly creatures rather than environmental vermin. They actually keep the paddocks green and mowed. God's gentle quiet landscapers. And they grow warm pure wool!
