aardvarkash10 960 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 in Auckland. I guess it's chocolate eggs and hot cross buns, and maybe the first indoor fire of winter. Have a great weekend if you are heading out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

K4309 258 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I reckon Easter is too close to the equinox this year. It is normal to get blowey around the equinox. Traditionally Easter weather is always either complete shithouse or amazeballs glassy calm, never anything in between. Possibly when Easter was later in April (away from the equinox) it is more likely to get those classic autumn crisp clear days and cold nights. I'm hoping that is the case, as I'm eyeing up the April school holidays for a nice autumn cruise this year (and because Easter is sucky, as you say). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
