Weather of 7 May 2026

The Indian Summer which began the month has definitely finished.  I won't be lighting a fire today - the house is still warm inside - but it is definitely more like Winter than Summer.  Here is the BoM radar image about 1410 hrs.

It has also been a bit noisy with lightning strikes shown on this image.  White circles are very recent, red crosses are the oldest.

An image from the Ecowitt software on my Weather Station.  The lowest temperature (so far, as at 1418hrs) has been 5.7^o C with a maximum of 11.7^o C.

I don't think the water heater nor solar panels are helping much at present!

Total rain is now, 1424 hrs, 10.6mm, which will be doing some good.

I have just seen a post from BoM mentioning snow at reasonably low locations, of which the closest to Mallacoota was Bombala where the War Memorial in the centre of town is at 704m AMSL.
