Winter in Rupanyup can be COLD!

Today, Thursday August 12, 2010 is another cold day where the chills of winter have blown through the town yet again. In the last few week, Rupanyup has seen a good deal of wind, rain and a few warmer sunny days that all but promise that spring may be but a few weeks away.

Local small talk that has flowed from some long time residents has revealed that they believe that the winter we are experiencing right now has been amongst the coldest experienced in the region since the 1960s.

It seems that the distant memories have returned for many locals of a time when puddles in the streets were frozen when walking to school in the mornings.

It seems that wide spread frosts for some weeks after a period of rain may be all that is needed to bring it to a truth.
