Apparently it was snowing Bacchus Marsh as well, one of my friends lives there and she messaged me. I agree with you that this is absolutely preferable to Summer though, this Summer was so dreadful, I still remember sitting through sociology two weeks straight almost dying of heat stroke in MARCH. It was insane.
It should be, I'm really looking forward to it, I don't get to go to the footy anywhere near often enough.
