"Thanks to a little bit of rainfall falling into some dry air: and that means we just get great evaporation and great cooling across that entire district," she said.

She said there was an "upper system at the moment that's causing a whole lot of cloud cover across the entire state"."The cloud disappears as we go into Sunday, so we'll see things start to ease up a little bit."However, the overnight temperatures are still very cool in particular for the Southern Interior region and frosts around as well.

That’s global warming for you...

Global warming?

I can see yet another ratio brewing.

Love how 9/10 people on here don’t have a grasp of basic climate change, seems 9/10 people on here somehow didn’t do high school science

Yeah its called winter.

Global warming

Winter starts in 1 week .... right? So a wintry blast is not exactly Armageddon. Must be a slow news day at the ABC.

ClimateJustice it's way too cold 🤓

It’s a climate emergency! 🚨

must be global warming LOL

Yes in autumn how unusual

So much for the global warming hoax.

but this just proves global warming, right?

Lot of people saying 'yeah, see, global warming my foot.' But, keeping in mind massive decrease in traffic, air travel, factories closed and production down, if anything this would seem to prove the point.

But global warming 🤔

Need more CO2s in the air for warmth. Clearly all the CO2s have left the Queensland atmosphere and gone to the northern hemisphere where it is warm. Yes.

I weep for you in Victoria. That is NOT winter Brisbane. That is a slight lull in perfection. Oh to dig up my town and deposit it in the tropics! 17.5, I'd face for a giant spider for such warmth!

So what? Finally realised that 'global warming' is just utter nonsense concocted by psychopaths.

ClimateChange !! GlobalCooling, let's scare all the children 🤓

Good

so fucking what?

They’ll all have COVID now

NSW 'the state that everybody hates' as old rivalries fire up over bordersSydneysiders cheered while noses across the rest of the country were put firmly out of joint as State Premiers became embroiled in a war of words over coronavirus border restrictions. What kind of ridiculous headline is this? Has the abcNews turned into tabloid news? Maybe Victoria & NSW should create their own travel bubble. Qld Premier Palaszczuk also stuck in the boot, telling NSW it was 'not going to be lectured to' by a state We r in a federation If they r a rebel we cut off her GST Stop whining Qld election is coming Qld tourism industry is a dead dodo This is not the USA, don't spread hatred that doesn't exists. This is a matter of preventing a resurgence of the virus. Your headline misrepresents our country.
