on my second last visit to Canberra (mid 80's) I went up during a cold snap in Victoria. It was the first time snow fell in Boronia in 30 years and as I drove up the Hume Hwy there was snow all the way to the capital. I was there 3 days & it still hadn't melted in the shadows! If you like cold boy, you gone to the right town. I was in the tropics 2 weeks ago....
