Okay, fine, its not like bloody cold like some countries can be, but its relatively cold for Auckland. Considering that its like 7 degrees, and wind chill makes it feel like 3 degrees out...
Yesterday was quite an amusing day. For truckers, at least. They were protesting against some sort of increase in the road user charges that came into effect regarding diesel users. Yeah, so they all decided to crowd the CBD by coming in through all the entry points from the highway. And apparently, they got stuck in their own jam. Most of them didn't even reach the CBD, haha. And they managed to delay everyone's work schedule too, since it was on at like 8 or so. People had to go in late, go in earlier (like very early), or not go at all. Fun times indeed.
I hear there was sleet in Auckland. Haven't seen any proof of it so far though. Apparently the whole of New Zealand's going through this cold phase (yes I know there is one called winter, I meant a colder than usual winter phase). Ah well, I guess it makes up for the really mild winter last year, the one which was over before it started, haha.
Edit: Actually, its freezing out there. I'm absolutely certain the wind chill would make it feel like 0 degrees in this weather.
