THERE’S A BIT OF WEATHER ABOUT
good evening weather watchers one n all
tonight
Victoria is in the grip of a manic depression as a high blows Poowong away
as far as Happy Valley
glazing smiles on the dials of all poppy growers in our blissful state but an occlusal at the Bight will cause a sharp snap that will set your choppers a-chattering Vite Vite
thanks to Caucus a storm is already brewing over
Dago Island where off-shore sea breezes regale the boat people
the current floe chart shows that six million tonnes
of snow were flogged er flocked at Mount You Bewdi enough to freezeyerassets and roll yer financial advisers the hottest sunspot on today’s weather watch was Hellespont a recessive community on the back blocks of Mount Buggery most of whom should’ve grown out of Diapur’s by now
sending
the Mercury soaring to Balley Hooley and up Chinaman’s Knob with a ringing endorsement from Dongdingadale
the
coolest place to be right now is The Brat Pack just about as popular as a Japanese isobar at Tittybong Nar Nar Goon and Eureka
the meanest
which we pan daily
don’t monkey with that trough at Manangatang all right so everything is Yackandandah you wonder whether prospects
and yeah
sno wonder
but if yer don’t like yer
see change in fifteen
you betcha
