Wouldn’t it be great if people posting on this site knew the difference between “Weather” and “Climate” then we wouldn’t have to see the drivel posted here!!

In reply to Phil Private. In the SE of SA we didn't have a spring, it went straight from a very cold winter to summer, where until a few days ago we'd only had a couple of days over 30. Shows just how the temperature varies around our great land. Today it went from 40 early in the day to 23 now. 5.05pm.

I have been in Adelaide for the last few days where until today there was virtually no wind. I didn’t have access to the Data Dashboard so couldn’t see what was happening there. But I guess the 8 or 10 hours of sunlight helped during the day. It was bloody hot and I was hoping for a breeze, too. As for breaking records I kept hearing that the record set in 1898 may have been broken. That means it took 117 years for that record to be broken, if it has. Bloody stupid media only want to grandstand to sell air time and papers.

No heatwave on the Vic coast in fact the coolest December I can remember. Mornings are cold. Can’t wait to read the BOM propaganda. Not enough RE today in SA.

anyone interested in an addition to the table to show approx how much CO2 is being emitted from each energy source in each State?

If I was younger I`d be putting panels on my roof and a battery big enough to run my house. I`d be completely off grid and not have to rely on a very suspect and expensive grid where RE that requires no fuel is dearer than fossil fueled power. I have used solar on or caravan for many years and spent weeks on end in the bush with just solar and gas, and we never used much gas as we cooked mostly on a fire. The solar and two hundred aH of batteries supplies enough power for lights and the TV the radio and charging mobile phones, cameras, running the fridge and a good deal more when needed. So I have extensive knowledge of solar and its limitations and its ability. Rooftop solar for individual homes is the way to go.

18/12/19 8GW plus of solar. And on what was actually a mediocre day in VIC and SA.

Hydro generation in Vic seems much higher than it normally is – any reason for this?

Can’t generate enough RE for demand
