Saturday's weather forecast is fine and sunny with a 38'c maximum. Should we go ahead with the meet on the 8th or postpone it to either February 15th or 22nd?

Please state your thoughts/votes.

Are you made of snow?

38 will be OK with me.

38? Soft. It's been 42 here all week

I'm only new here but was going to attend this meet on the 8th. What time does it kick of?

Hopefully it cools down a little in the arvo Gav. I'm not scared of a little heat.

It's a bit variable folks show up at times that suit them, pretty sure I'll be there between 6:00 and 6:30, I have another event on Saturday afternoons but I should be finished early enough to get there around 6:00.

Welcome to the Melbourne group it is always nice to meet new members.

http://www.weatherinau.com/Victoria/Weather_in_Melbourne/14-day-forecast , hopefully cools off some , not one of those 34deg nights ...
As long as its not overly hot , ill bring some drinks - cups , and see how it goes ...

 

[Fusion_m8]

I'll be there around 4.30-5pm to get some kayak time in. Who wants to join me as I got a spare kayak?

Its going to be a warm night and those pesky bugs and insects are gonna kill us and eat our flesh:help:

Too lame norm, in Australia we need stronger insect repellant:

We used the Bushmans tropical strength in south America and didn't have a bug come anywhere near us.

See y'all.

 

[mvyrmnd]

Hey Gav, I might take you up on that extra kayak offer - there's a cache in this lake too. Hopefully not so windy this time!

 

[Fusion_m8]

No worries Simon! Hopefully we don't have to dive for it...

Crash: I've seen kids swim in the lake all the time and I've fallen in myself, as long as you don't drink any of the water, I don't see the danger.

Jon: At the last meet you mentioned that you've not seen the SW01 slim? I'll bring one for you to have a look.

 

[old4570]

Weather prediction is for 40Deg C on Saturday ....

 

[mvyrmnd]

Yep. So be it

 

[Fusion_m8]

Drink lots of water, but its not the heat that I'm worried about, its the bloody insects that will be out in force on a 30'c night. I recall in 2010 when we had a summer CPF meet at Lysterfield Lake, it was crazy with thousands of flying insects dive bombing the lights everytime we turned them on.

Does anyone know where I could pick up a Fenix HP25 in Melbourne while I'm in town?
