If you think we're cold you should look at Oberon, always two
degrees colder than us. Orange is about 860 metres above sea level, the same
height as Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains so maybe that helps. Actually
Orange has been much warmer the last two years than previously. This year we've
only had one snowfall which never even settled. Being only a resident since
January I'm still uncertain of weather patterns though a pilot friend of mine
reckons the temperature actually drops about 10 degrees as he approaches Orange
in his light aircraft. Still it seems to mess the birds around here a bit, our
spring arrivals appear to arrive here a couple of months later than everywhere
else from what I've heard.
