I will be popping over to these countries sometime around mid-February... need to know whether I should purchase warmer clothing in anticipation of really cold weather [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks! :D

PS. I am living in a country located around the equator, so pretty much used to warm weather throughout the year...

In Aus where I live presently its around 30'C and quite humid. Sucks :( NZ never had truly hot summers when I lived there. So in comparison from where you live it should be a nice temperate climate [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font color="lightgreen"> Mid February... in Central NSW, Mid febrary ranges in temparature from about 15'C to 25'C depending on where you are, but still, the temparatures will vary.

When do u want to go (like approximate dates), and where would u like to go ?? (lke relative locations... Southern NSW etc). I will attempt to get you some weather forecasts, so u can decide for urself based on what ur used to... only real way to do it IMO..</font>

Around January-Februrary it's pretty humid..In Sydney we have had a few showers latley and some very hot days! I suggest bringing Summer clothes and maby a jumper and a pair of long pants just in case [img]smile.gif[/img] . Summer where I live can be very strange [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Wow, thanks for your prompt replies :D

I am heading for Canberra and Wellington... kinda excited in a way, cos I've never been to these 2 countries ;)

But this is a working trip, so... I'm not sure whether I'll be able to squeeze in some fun. Well, keeping my fingers crossed [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Speak of the devil!
Im on my way to Canberra tomorrow :D
Of course in my case its only half an hours drive from where I live, though a plane ride there wouldnt be without its merits [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hey I missed this thread, so I'm going to put my $0.02 in now.

Australia is most likely to be hot and sunny, whilst Wellington, its a 50% chance it could be hot and sunny, and a 50% chance it could be cold, windy and rainy. Or it could be both on the same day, which happens quite often.

mistral, pack for summer, but remember to take a jacket or something warm for windy Wellington.

Thanks, Scholarcs! :D I sure hope there's something I can do for recreation in these two cities. I heard that Canberra is incredibly boring (sorry if anyone thinks otherwise, but that's what I heard ;) ) .
