Speaker 1: is recorded on.

00:00:21,214 --> 00:00:24,534
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm Taylor Strano. This is Mamma MIA's twice daily

00:00:29,454 --> 00:00:32,934
Speaker 2: millions of Ozzie workers. We're breaking down the latest fair

7
00:00:32,974 --> 00:00:37,094
Speaker 2: work legislation, what it actually means for weekend and overtime pay,

8
00:00:37,294 --> 00:00:41,614
Speaker 2: and why some aren't happy about it. Plus, spring might

9
00:00:41,654 --> 00:00:44,454
Speaker 2: be on your calendar, but where the bloody hell is it?

10
00:00:44,894 --> 00:00:48,014
Speaker 2: With what feels like never ending cold snaps, rain and

11
00:00:48,054 --> 00:00:52,294
Speaker 2: frosty mornings, We're investigating the idea of false spring and

12
00:00:52,414 --> 00:00:55,894
Speaker 2: what we can expect once spring finally begins. Before we

13
00:00:55,934 --> 00:00:58,294
Speaker 2: get there, here's Claire Murphy with the latest from the

14
00:00:58,334 --> 00:01:01,134
Speaker 2: Quickie Newsroom for Monday, September one.

15
00:01:01,254 --> 00:01:05,334
Speaker 1: Thanks Taylor. Racism and extremism at anti immigration rallies across

16
00:01:05,334 --> 00:01:08,934
Speaker 1: Australia has been condemned after a score of arrests following

17
00:01:09,014 --> 00:01:12,534
Speaker 1: violent class with police. On the weekend, tens of thousands

18
00:01:12,574 --> 00:01:16,134
Speaker 1: of nationalists draped in Australian flags, participated in March for

19
00:01:16,174 --> 00:01:19,374
Speaker 1: Australia rallies on Sunday in major cities across the country.

20
00:01:19,734 --> 00:01:22,374
Speaker 1: Speakers and attendees attempted to state that they were not

21
00:01:22,454 --> 00:01:26,574
Speaker 1: against immigrants but wanted less migration, but the rhetoric crossed

22
00:01:26,614 --> 00:01:30,894
Speaker 1: into racism and xenophobia and became conspiratorial for some, with

23
00:01:30,974 --> 00:01:33,654
Speaker 1: one speaker in Sydney spouting a theory about a clear

24
00:01:33,694 --> 00:01:36,854
Speaker 1: global agenda to shame, beat down and replace people with

25
00:01:36,934 --> 00:01:41,054
Speaker 1: Anglo Celtic in European heritage. Prominent Neo Nazis also gave

26
00:01:41,134 --> 00:01:44,894
Speaker 1: speeches in Sydney and Melbourne, New South Wales. Police estimates

27
00:01:44,934 --> 00:01:48,134
Speaker 1: around fifteen thousand people attended the Sydney rally. There were

28
00:01:48,134 --> 00:01:51,654
Speaker 1: no significant incidents or injuries after hundreds of officers were

29
00:01:51,694 --> 00:01:55,614
Speaker 1: deployed around the city to cover multiple events, including the marathon.

30
00:01:55,974 --> 00:01:58,294
Speaker 1: It was a different story in Melbourne, however, where the

31
00:01:58,334 --> 00:02:02,014
Speaker 1: march attracted around five thousand people. Violence erupted when the

32
00:02:02,054 --> 00:02:04,414
Speaker 1: March for Australia came face to face with the pro

33
00:02:04,454 --> 00:02:07,774
Speaker 1: Palestinian march in the city. Officers were forced to use

34
00:02:07,814 --> 00:02:11,414
Speaker 1: pepper spray to break up clashes between the protesters. Six

35
00:02:11,454 --> 00:02:15,094
Speaker 1: people were arrested and faced charges of assaulting police, behaving

36
00:02:15,174 --> 00:02:18,934
Speaker 1: in a riotous manner, attempted robbery, assault and resisting police.

37
00:02:19,134 --> 00:02:22,894
Speaker 1: Two officers were injured after being struck by bottles. In Brisbane,

38
00:02:22,974 --> 00:02:26,094
Speaker 1: one man was arrested and charged with assaulting police, while

39
00:02:26,094 --> 00:02:29,374
Speaker 1: another was detained for breaching the peace. Queensland Police say

40
00:02:29,374 --> 00:02:33,534
Speaker 1: around six thousand protesters attended the Brisbane rally. Senator Pauline

44
00:02:44,694 --> 00:02:48,174
Speaker 1: throwing everything at their Bushland hunt for alleged gunman Desi Freeman,

45
00:02:48,254 --> 00:02:51,094
Speaker 1: who's been on the run for seven days after allegedly

46
00:02:51,134 --> 00:02:54,814
Speaker 1: shooting dead two officers and injuring a third. Freeman's wife

47
00:02:55,014 --> 00:02:58,694
Speaker 1: urging her husband to give himself up, Amalia Freeman pleaded

48
00:02:58,694 --> 00:03:00,814
Speaker 1: for him to safely surrender and put an end to

49
00:03:00,854 --> 00:03:04,334
Speaker 1: the ordeal in Victoria's High Country yesterday, saying she did

50
00:03:04,374 --> 00:03:07,894
Speaker 1: not hold anti authority views herself and would cooperate with

51
00:03:08,014 --> 00:03:09,494
Speaker 1: police in any way she could.

52
00:03:09,854 --> 00:03:10,054
Speaker 2: Miss.

53
00:03:10,094 --> 00:03:12,854
Speaker 1: Freeman and her fifteen year old sign were both arrested

54
00:03:12,854 --> 00:03:15,774
Speaker 1: at their Poor Punker home last week. Both were interviewed

55
00:03:15,774 --> 00:03:18,894
Speaker 1: and later released without charge. Fifty six year old Freeman

56
00:03:18,974 --> 00:03:21,694
Speaker 1: has been at large since August twenty six following an

57
00:03:21,694 --> 00:03:24,374
Speaker 1: incident at his property in poor Punker, around three hundred

58
00:03:24,454 --> 00:03:28,094
Speaker 1: kilometers northeast of Melbourne. The self described sovereign citizen is

59
00:03:28,134 --> 00:03:31,774
Speaker 1: accused of killing Detective Leading Senior Constable Neil Thompson and

60
00:03:31,854 --> 00:03:34,654
Speaker 1: Senior Constable Vadom de Wart, who'd gone to the property

61
00:03:34,694 --> 00:03:37,534
Speaker 1: to serve a warrant. More than four hundred police officers

62
00:03:37,614 --> 00:03:41,094
Speaker 1: from Victoria plus interstate colleagues have been battling blizzard like

63
00:03:41,134 --> 00:03:44,734
Speaker 1: conditions as part of the Search climate campaign at Greta.

64
00:03:44,814 --> 00:03:47,734
Speaker 1: Dumburg has again joined a flotilla of boats loaded with

65
00:03:47,814 --> 00:03:50,894
Speaker 1: aid for Gaza, aiming to break Israel's naval blockade and

66
00:03:50,934 --> 00:03:54,734
Speaker 1: deliver food to the shouted enclave. Thousands of supporters gathered

67
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:57,374
Speaker 1: at Barcelona's port to see off the boats, many of

68
00:03:57,374 --> 00:04:00,894
Speaker 1: them waving Palestinian flags. Dumberg telling the crowd that this

69
00:04:01,014 --> 00:04:03,934
Speaker 1: is a mission to challenge the extremely violent business as

70
00:04:04,014 --> 00:04:07,894
Speaker 1: usual international system that is failing to uphold international law.

71
00:04:08,174 --> 00:04:11,814
Speaker 1: The Swedish campaigner trying unsuccessfully to break Israel's long standing

72
00:04:11,894 --> 00:04:14,574
Speaker 1: naval blockade of Gaza by sailing to the territory in

73
00:04:14,654 --> 00:04:18,494
Speaker 1: June with other activists. Israeli seized their small aid ship

74
00:04:18,534 --> 00:04:21,734
Speaker 1: and they were deported from Israel. Twenty eight years after

75
00:04:21,774 --> 00:04:24,854
Speaker 1: her death, Princess Diana's brother has posted a photo of

76
00:04:24,894 --> 00:04:27,734
Speaker 1: flowers he left at her gravesite on a private island

77
00:04:27,774 --> 00:04:30,734
Speaker 1: where she's buried. Diana was killed in a car crash

78
00:04:30,734 --> 00:04:33,654
Speaker 1: in a Paris tunnel on August thirty one, nineteen ninety seven.

79
00:04:33,974 --> 00:04:36,654
Speaker 1: Her partner at the time, Dodie al Fayed, and her driver,

80
00:04:36,774 --> 00:04:39,854
Speaker 1: Henri Paul, also died after the car hit a pillar

81
00:04:39,934 --> 00:04:43,294
Speaker 1: inside the tunnel as they tried to escape the chasing paparazzi.

82
00:04:43,654 --> 00:04:46,214
Speaker 1: Her brother, Charles Spencer, posted a picture of the pink

83
00:04:46,214 --> 00:04:49,174
Speaker 1: and white bouquet he lefted his sister's grave site, as

84
00:04:49,174 --> 00:04:51,094
Speaker 1: well as a shot of the island itself, which from

85
00:04:51,094 --> 00:04:55,454
Speaker 1: the outside seems almost overgrown with greenery. Dutch runner Sifan

86
00:04:55,574 --> 00:04:57,934
Speaker 1: Hassan was the first woman to cross the finish line

87
00:04:57,934 --> 00:05:00,774
Speaker 1: of the Sydney Marathon yesterday, doing so in record time.

88
00:05:01,174 --> 00:05:03,454
Speaker 1: This is the first year the Aussie Marathon has been

89
00:05:03,454 --> 00:05:06,614
Speaker 1: included as part of the World Major's Events series Hassan

90
00:05:06,694 --> 00:05:09,294
Speaker 1: crossing the line in two hours, eighteen minutes and twenty

91
00:05:09,334 --> 00:05:12,974
Speaker 1: two two seconds, breaking the previous record held by Ethiopia's

92
00:05:13,054 --> 00:05:16,534
Speaker 1: Work in Eshadessa by more than three minutes. It seems

93
00:05:16,614 --> 00:05:19,374
Speaker 1: we've been duped into thinking a celebrity couple we hoped

94
00:05:19,414 --> 00:05:21,894
Speaker 1: could see them be each other's happily ever after was

95
00:05:21,934 --> 00:05:25,014
Speaker 1: nothing more than a pr stunt. Earlier this year's sources

96
00:05:25,054 --> 00:05:27,894
Speaker 1: confirmed that Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, who'd met on

97
00:05:27,934 --> 00:05:30,134
Speaker 1: the set of the New Naked Gun movie, were in

98
00:05:30,174 --> 00:05:32,974
Speaker 1: fact an item, but TMZ were told on the weekend

99
00:05:32,974 --> 00:05:34,734
Speaker 1: that the pair had not seen each other in the

100
00:05:34,814 --> 00:05:37,774
Speaker 1: year since wrapping the movie, and only came together for

101
00:05:37,814 --> 00:05:41,494
Speaker 1: the press tour. All the reported dinner dates were business meetings,

102
00:05:41,574 --> 00:05:44,814
Speaker 1: their personal assistants also in attendance. All the red carpet

103
00:05:44,814 --> 00:05:47,654
Speaker 1: affection just the pair hamming it up for the cameras.

104
00:05:48,054 --> 00:05:57,894
Speaker 2: Thanks Claire. Next, our penalty rates finally safe. There's been

105
00:05:57,934 --> 00:06:02,254
Speaker 2: some big news for weekend holiday and overtime workers. Late

106
00:06:02,374 --> 00:06:06,774
Speaker 2: last week, Parliament passed the Fair Work Amendment aka protecting

107
00:06:06,814 --> 00:06:11,414
Speaker 2: penalty and overtime rates. So what's changed? Well, for the

108
00:06:11,454 --> 00:06:15,534
Speaker 2: two point six million ossies who work unsociable hours. Their

109
00:06:15,574 --> 00:06:19,014
Speaker 2: penalty and overtime pay is now locked in by law.

110
00:06:19,214 --> 00:06:22,614
Speaker 2: No more risk of seeing those extra rates cut, altered

111
00:06:22,774 --> 00:06:26,214
Speaker 2: or swapped for flat salaries. The government frames this as

112
00:06:26,254 --> 00:06:29,534
Speaker 2: a win for fairness and cost of living relief, especially

113
00:06:29,574 --> 00:06:32,734
Speaker 2: for the roughly sixty percent of award reliant workers who

114
00:06:32,774 --> 00:06:35,934
Speaker 2: are women, casuals, or under the age of thirty five.

115
00:06:36,374 --> 00:06:39,334
Speaker 2: It's a move the Prime Minister has celebrated, thinking back

116
00:06:39,374 --> 00:06:42,454
Speaker 2: to his own time working for penalty rates while studying too.

117
00:06:42,854 --> 00:06:46,094
Speaker 3: Penalty Rach for helping me get through UNI working Saturday

118
00:06:46,214 --> 00:06:48,854
Speaker 3: night shifts at Pancakes on the rocks ment. I could

119
00:06:48,894 --> 00:06:52,694
Speaker 3: still study and still pay the bills. I know how

120
00:06:52,774 --> 00:06:56,454
Speaker 3: much penalty rates matter. We've just passed new laws to

121
00:06:56,534 --> 00:07:00,574
Speaker 3: protect them for minimum and award wage workers, because if

122
00:07:00,614 --> 00:07:03,814
Speaker 3: you give up your nights, weekends and holidays, you deserve

123
00:07:04,094 --> 00:07:04,694
Speaker 3: fair pay.

124
00:07:05,374 --> 00:07:09,534
Speaker 2: But not everyone's convinced. Major retail and business groups argue

125
00:07:09,534 --> 00:07:12,974
Speaker 2: the new laws is too rigid, it ties employers' hands

126
00:07:12,974 --> 00:07:17,294
Speaker 2: and won't boost productivity is promised. The Australian Retailers Association

127
00:07:17,494 --> 00:07:21,654
Speaker 2: and National Retail Association say the bill now prevents employees,

128
00:07:21,854 --> 00:07:25,414
Speaker 2: especially in small businesses, from negotiating for a higher base

129
00:07:25,454 --> 00:07:29,414
Speaker 2: salary instead of penalty rates. Critics claim this could hurt

130
00:07:29,494 --> 00:07:33,414
Speaker 2: job security, could limit flexibility, and drown small businesses in

131
00:07:33,454 --> 00:07:37,174
Speaker 2: more red tape. Business leaders also worry the bill overrides

132
00:07:37,214 --> 00:07:40,414
Speaker 2: the independence of the Fair Work Commission, forcing a one

133
00:07:40,454 --> 00:07:44,534
Speaker 2: size fits all rule that ignores its sector differences. Ultimately,

134
00:07:44,854 --> 00:07:48,654
Speaker 2: while workers might welcome the protection, small retailers warn the

135
00:07:48,734 --> 00:07:53,054
Speaker 2: new system could dampen confidence and slow down economic growth.

136
00:07:54,294 --> 00:07:57,774
Speaker 2: Today marks the first day of September, and in my

137
00:07:57,974 --> 00:08:01,494
Speaker 2: mind that means it's supposed to be spring. But if

138
00:08:01,534 --> 00:08:05,214
Speaker 2: you're shivering through another frosty morning, you're not alone. In

139
00:08:05,294 --> 00:08:09,094
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, Australia experienced one of the coldest starts

140
00:08:09,094 --> 00:08:13,294
Speaker 2: to winter in years, with Canberra hitting its chilliest beginning

141
00:08:13,414 --> 00:08:17,254
Speaker 2: in a quarter century. Eastern states dropped nearly ten degrees

142
00:08:17,294 --> 00:08:21,294
Speaker 2: below average, and ski resorts celebrated some of the deepest

143
00:08:21,294 --> 00:08:25,974
Speaker 2: snow in decades. Last week, Perth recorded its coldest day

144
00:08:26,094 --> 00:08:30,694
Speaker 2: in fifty years and its wettest winter since nineteen ninety six.

145
00:08:31,334 --> 00:08:35,134
Speaker 2: Just this weekend, gone severe weather warnings across three states,

146
00:08:35,174 --> 00:08:39,094
Speaker 2: including a polar outbreak anticipated one of the most widespread

147
00:08:39,094 --> 00:08:42,894
Speaker 2: snow events in years, so you'll forgive me for asking,

148
00:08:43,174 --> 00:08:46,094
Speaker 2: when the heck can I throw my flaseline leggings to

149
00:08:46,174 --> 00:08:48,854
Speaker 2: the back of my cupboard and start the wardrobe transition

150
00:08:49,094 --> 00:08:53,134
Speaker 2: to lighter layers and open toad shoes. First, we must

151
00:08:53,214 --> 00:08:57,254
Speaker 2: find out what's behind this chili hangover. Despite a brutal

152
00:08:57,334 --> 00:09:00,614
Speaker 2: June and July, the Bureau of Meteorology says the big

153
00:09:00,694 --> 00:09:04,974
Speaker 2: picture is still trending warm. Last year followed a similar pattern.

154
00:09:05,174 --> 00:09:08,054
Speaker 2: After a spell of frosty weather, Australia ended up with

155
00:09:08,094 --> 00:09:11,534
Speaker 2: its second warmest winter on record thanks to a balmi August.

156
00:09:11,814 --> 00:09:15,134
Speaker 2: This year's model pointed towards a warm ending, but was

157
00:09:15,174 --> 00:09:17,654
Speaker 2: that just false spring. If you think I've made that

158
00:09:17,774 --> 00:09:21,014
Speaker 2: term up, allow me to explain. Every year there's a

159
00:09:21,014 --> 00:09:25,294
Speaker 2: burst of unseasonable warmth that tricks us into thinking winters over.

160
00:09:25,934 --> 00:09:28,774
Speaker 2: It's actually a term often used in the gardening world,

161
00:09:29,054 --> 00:09:31,734
Speaker 2: meaning a patch of sunny days, often in late winter,

162
00:09:31,934 --> 00:09:35,854
Speaker 2: before cold snaps and frost returns. Gardeners are warned not

163
00:09:35,974 --> 00:09:38,614
Speaker 2: to rush into spring planting, even if the urge to

164
00:09:38,654 --> 00:09:41,974
Speaker 2: break out shorts or beach towels is strong. So when

165
00:09:42,054 --> 00:09:44,974
Speaker 2: will the warm weather actually stick around? For Good seven

166
00:09:45,014 --> 00:09:49,134
Speaker 2: News meteorologist Jane Bunn might have the answers, Jane, when

167
00:09:49,214 --> 00:09:53,894
Speaker 2: is this warmer weather coming and maybe more importantly staying well.

168
00:09:54,334 --> 00:09:57,814
Speaker 4: Often our weather doesn't actually follow the calendar. Think about

169
00:09:57,814 --> 00:10:00,774
Speaker 4: the big cold outbreak that came through over the weekend

170
00:10:01,214 --> 00:10:04,094
Speaker 4: and just how low the snow was of the gusty

171
00:10:04,174 --> 00:10:08,614
Speaker 4: winds and even felt as far north as Queensland. So yeah,

172
00:10:08,654 --> 00:10:11,014
Speaker 4: they had sun shine and Sydney two lots of sunshine,

173
00:10:11,014 --> 00:10:12,694
Speaker 4: but there was a real bite in the air. That

174
00:10:12,854 --> 00:10:15,414
Speaker 4: was because we had a cold outbreak moved through us,

175
00:10:15,414 --> 00:10:17,774
Speaker 4: a strong cold front that has winds that come from

176
00:10:17,894 --> 00:10:20,934
Speaker 4: near antarcticaunt in behind it and that barrel across the

177
00:10:20,974 --> 00:10:24,454
Speaker 4: southeast of the country. So it doesn't really matter what

178
00:10:24,534 --> 00:10:26,694
Speaker 4: time of year it is, we can always get these

179
00:10:26,734 --> 00:10:29,774
Speaker 4: particular weather systems comes through. So that's kind of why

180
00:10:29,814 --> 00:10:31,894
Speaker 4: the weather keeps us on our toes Now. If you're

181
00:10:31,894 --> 00:10:34,374
Speaker 4: wanting to know when the end of that is, you

182
00:10:34,454 --> 00:10:36,614
Speaker 4: need to have high pressure sit out to our east

183
00:10:36,654 --> 00:10:39,254
Speaker 4: in order for us to get northerly winds and bring

184
00:10:39,414 --> 00:10:41,454
Speaker 4: the warps from the interior of the country out to

185
00:10:41,454 --> 00:10:42,254
Speaker 4: the capital feast.

186
00:10:42,534 --> 00:10:45,614
Speaker 2: So does winter technically end then with the close of August,

187
00:10:45,654 --> 00:10:47,854
Speaker 2: are we now officially in what we know as spring

188
00:10:48,174 --> 00:10:50,174
Speaker 2: or is it? Does it move around a little bit?

189
00:10:50,494 --> 00:10:53,134
Speaker 4: Technically the calendar the end of the month is the

190
00:10:53,294 --> 00:10:56,614
Speaker 4: end of off winter and the start of spring, but

191
00:10:57,174 --> 00:10:59,214
Speaker 4: the weather systems don't always follow that pattern.

192
00:10:59,734 --> 00:11:02,534
Speaker 2: Has one state copped it more than others this winter?

193
00:11:02,614 --> 00:11:05,614
Speaker 2: Right now? We had a really frosty start. Canberra obviously

194
00:11:05,654 --> 00:11:08,814
Speaker 2: recording some record breaking temperatures their perth. It was their

195
00:11:08,854 --> 00:11:11,934
Speaker 2: wettest winter since ninety six. Has it been pretty even

196
00:11:12,014 --> 00:11:13,494
Speaker 2: killed across the country.

197
00:11:13,134 --> 00:11:16,294
Speaker 4: Though, it depends where you were in winter and again

198
00:11:16,334 --> 00:11:19,054
Speaker 4: where these weather systems were. So the southwest of the

199
00:11:19,094 --> 00:11:23,654
Speaker 4: countrypped cold outbreak after cold outbreak. They had speeds of

200
00:11:23,734 --> 00:11:26,094
Speaker 4: moisture coming in from the Indian Ocean. That meant that

201
00:11:26,134 --> 00:11:28,774
Speaker 4: when this low pressure moved through, there was heaps of

202
00:11:28,814 --> 00:11:30,734
Speaker 4: moisture to play with, and so that ended up being

203
00:11:30,774 --> 00:11:33,054
Speaker 4: lots and lots of rain. So they had an amazingly

204
00:11:33,054 --> 00:11:35,694
Speaker 4: wet winter. In the southeast, there was a lot of

205
00:11:35,894 --> 00:11:38,694
Speaker 4: high pressure that was kind of blocking the weather system.

206
00:11:38,774 --> 00:11:41,174
Speaker 4: So think of it kind of like a nightclub and

207
00:11:41,174 --> 00:11:42,814
Speaker 4: there's a bounce throughout the front and they've got their

208
00:11:42,854 --> 00:11:44,734
Speaker 4: click boord and they're standing there and they say, no,

209
00:11:44,854 --> 00:11:46,614
Speaker 4: you can't come in. And so that's kind of what

210
00:11:46,654 --> 00:11:48,534
Speaker 4: it was doing, was sitting out over the southeast and

211
00:11:48,534 --> 00:11:51,814
Speaker 4: it's blocking the entry of these systems. So that meant

212
00:11:51,974 --> 00:11:54,894
Speaker 4: that the cold fronts et cetera were kind of sliding

213
00:11:54,934 --> 00:11:58,374
Speaker 4: across the southeast and not delivering the main punch of

214
00:11:58,414 --> 00:11:59,254
Speaker 4: a winter system.

215
00:11:59,534 --> 00:12:02,854
Speaker 2: Can you explain this idea of false spring to us?

216
00:12:02,894 --> 00:12:05,214
Speaker 2: It feels like a few weeks ago we started to

217
00:12:05,214 --> 00:12:08,254
Speaker 2: see those temperatures creep up into like the low to

218
00:12:08,334 --> 00:12:10,694
Speaker 2: mid twenties, and then there were even a few days

219
00:12:10,694 --> 00:12:12,614
Speaker 2: where I didn't have to wear my big coat to work.

220
00:12:12,734 --> 00:12:14,134
Speaker 2: But what actually does that mean?

221
00:12:15,214 --> 00:12:18,054
Speaker 4: Wasn't that pleasant? We will see some of that on

222
00:12:18,094 --> 00:12:21,374
Speaker 4: the horizon. But in order to make that happen, if

223
00:12:21,414 --> 00:12:23,374
Speaker 4: you're in the eastern part of the country anyway, you

224
00:12:23,454 --> 00:12:26,054
Speaker 4: need high pressure to be sitting to our east. That

225
00:12:26,134 --> 00:12:29,054
Speaker 4: then means that the winds are coming from the north

226
00:12:29,134 --> 00:12:31,694
Speaker 4: and spring right down through. And so instead of being

227
00:12:32,414 --> 00:12:35,174
Speaker 4: air that's from near Antarctica, it's more air that's near

228
00:12:35,214 --> 00:12:38,654
Speaker 4: from aliss even from Dullwin, even from Queensland. If you're

229
00:12:38,694 --> 00:12:42,134
Speaker 4: down in Victoria. So that's the weather pattern we need

230
00:12:42,174 --> 00:12:45,654
Speaker 4: to have to experience those sort of conditions. But if

231
00:12:45,694 --> 00:12:47,974
Speaker 4: that high is out of the way, then the next

232
00:12:48,014 --> 00:12:50,734
Speaker 4: big weather system as in low pressure system, that'll come

233
00:12:50,854 --> 00:12:53,974
Speaker 4: through and bring an end to those more pleasant conditions.

234
00:12:53,974 --> 00:12:56,694
Speaker 4: So it's all about where the high sits as to

235
00:12:56,774 --> 00:12:59,654
Speaker 4: how you're going to feel and how these weather systems

236
00:12:59,654 --> 00:13:02,294
Speaker 4: can ultimately move through. If we get that high sitting

237
00:13:02,294 --> 00:13:05,174
Speaker 4: out there for a while, then everyone will be laughing, going,

238
00:13:05,254 --> 00:13:08,174
Speaker 4: oh wow, this was a nice early taste of spring.

239
00:13:08,294 --> 00:13:12,654
Speaker 4: There's warmth the northerly winds, but do keep in mind

240
00:13:12,694 --> 00:13:14,014
Speaker 4: that it may not last forever.

241
00:13:14,374 --> 00:13:17,694
Speaker 2: Okay, before we let you go, Jane, what is our

242
00:13:17,774 --> 00:13:20,534
Speaker 2: spring going to look like? We're officially in spring now

243
00:13:20,534 --> 00:13:22,734
Speaker 2: it's the first of September. What do we have ahead

244
00:13:22,734 --> 00:13:23,814
Speaker 2: for us? Hmm?

245
00:13:24,334 --> 00:13:26,974
Speaker 4: Let me just consult my crystal ball, because that's kind

246
00:13:26,974 --> 00:13:30,334
Speaker 4: of what these little forecasting can be like. Now, I'd

247
00:13:30,334 --> 00:13:33,814
Speaker 4: expect more moisture, so there is the potential for heavier rain.

248
00:13:34,334 --> 00:13:37,334
Speaker 4: What that can also mean is with more moisture, it

249
00:13:37,414 --> 00:13:40,614
Speaker 4: means our atmosphere is warmer, so maybe there are less

250
00:13:40,654 --> 00:13:42,334
Speaker 4: of these cold out breaks to come through.

251
00:13:42,614 --> 00:13:46,334
Speaker 2: Okay, Jane, put your crystal ball to extra good use,

252
00:13:46,374 --> 00:13:48,414
Speaker 2: give it a really hard rub for us. What can

253
00:13:48,454 --> 00:13:52,094
Speaker 2: we expect from summer? Then, I've heard that we're looking

254
00:13:52,134 --> 00:13:53,694
Speaker 2: down the barrel of a wet summer.

255
00:13:54,174 --> 00:13:56,214
Speaker 4: There is the chance of that, yes, because we've got

256
00:13:56,254 --> 00:13:59,334
Speaker 4: all of that extra moisture to play with. So we're

257
00:13:59,374 --> 00:14:02,614
Speaker 4: been through a stone of the negative Indian Ocean dipop.

258
00:14:02,694 --> 00:14:04,894
Speaker 4: Now that just sounds for a technical doesn't it, But

259
00:14:05,014 --> 00:14:08,374
Speaker 4: it's essentially the Larnina of the Pacific. It just doesn't

260
00:14:08,414 --> 00:14:12,054
Speaker 4: have the fancy name in the Pacific Ocean. What we've

261
00:14:12,094 --> 00:14:15,454
Speaker 4: had is the slight potential for lundina as we go

262
00:14:15,534 --> 00:14:18,294
Speaker 4: into spring and summer. Now not all of the modeling

263
00:14:18,374 --> 00:14:20,294
Speaker 4: is lighting that, but some of it is, so that

264
00:14:20,414 --> 00:14:23,494
Speaker 4: is something to keep sort of in your back pocket.

265
00:14:24,054 --> 00:14:27,134
Speaker 4: Is this a potential lundining year? Even if we don't

266
00:14:27,174 --> 00:14:29,734
Speaker 4: get that, we know that the water of Queensland is

267
00:14:29,934 --> 00:14:33,174
Speaker 4: incredibly warmer than average and with that source of moisture,

268
00:14:33,214 --> 00:14:35,894
Speaker 4: that means there is more wet weather to be spread

269
00:14:35,934 --> 00:14:38,734
Speaker 4: across the country. So as you go through summer, yes

270
00:14:38,774 --> 00:14:41,614
Speaker 4: there is the chance of above average rainfall, but it

271
00:14:41,654 --> 00:14:44,254
Speaker 4: all comes down to where the wet weather systems go

272
00:14:44,454 --> 00:14:46,254
Speaker 4: as to who actually sees this rain.

273
00:14:48,814 --> 00:14:51,054
Speaker 2: Thanks so much for taking some time to feed your

274
00:14:51,054 --> 00:14:53,934
Speaker 2: mind with us today. Hey, before you go, it's Women's

275
00:14:53,934 --> 00:14:57,334
Speaker 2: Health Week, so I've enlisted our mate Claire Murphy, who

276
00:14:57,454 --> 00:14:59,974
Speaker 2: yes you'll know her from the Quickie but also from

277
00:14:59,974 --> 00:15:03,254
Speaker 2: our women's health podcast well, to expand our minds with

278
00:15:03,374 --> 00:15:06,174
Speaker 2: some interesting women's health facts at the end of every

279
00:15:06,174 --> 00:15:08,854
Speaker 2: episode this week. So, without further.

280
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:14,054
Speaker 1: Ado, Doctor Marriam shared this really great bit of information

281
00:15:14,174 --> 00:15:15,774
Speaker 1: with us, And this is for anyone who might be

282
00:15:15,854 --> 00:15:19,494
Speaker 1: iron deficient but not know why. It could potentially be

283
00:15:19,894 --> 00:15:22,934
Speaker 1: due to Celiac disease and you're not absorbing iron as

284
00:15:22,934 --> 00:15:25,854
Speaker 1: well as you should be. So it's thought that Celiac

285
00:15:25,934 --> 00:15:28,534
Speaker 1: disease alone is accounting for about one in twenty cases

286
00:15:28,534 --> 00:15:31,334
Speaker 1: of unexplained iron deficiency here in Australia, and many of

287
00:15:31,454 --> 00:15:34,334
Speaker 1: us remain undiagnosed. So if you are struggling with your

288
00:15:34,334 --> 00:15:36,734
Speaker 1: iron levels, make sure you go to your GP and

289
00:15:36,854 --> 00:15:39,334
Speaker 1: ask for them to look into whether it's coeliac disease.

290
00:15:39,574 --> 00:15:43,014
Speaker 2: The Quikie is produced by me Taylor Strano and Clem

291
00:15:43,014 --> 00:15:45,214
Speaker 2: Murphy
