....It beats hiding under the overturned kiddie pool like the suspects do on Cops.

Yeah but warm and sunny in Brisbane, just perfect.

The sea off Adelaide is basically the Southern Ocean, if the cold water doesn't kill you the giant white pointers will eat you.

I don't think it's summer in Aussieland right now. Remember, everything there is opposite. Christmas is hit-the-beach time, so right now yeah, it's probably still winter.

despite the freezing night, on which the mercury dipped to 6C.

6C =~ 42F = approximately 6C above freezing (give or take)

TFA author/editor fail elementary scientificology.

/no where near freezing
//still too cold for swimming, thouogh

FTFA:One man fled after a scuffle by running into the ocean despite the freezing night, on which the mercury dipped to 6C.


He was swimming in mercury? The man is lucky to be alive.

I live just west of the ski fields. We've been getting down to -1C overnight, but on the mountains they've been lucky to get to -2C during the day. Weather's giving them lots of snow.

/that's why we win medals at both the summer AND winter Olympics
//because other folk don't expect the winter goodness!
