I blame the City Council

I have finally worked out why it is snowing more in town and why we never get snow in South Shore. Here is absolute proof that snow tussock attracts snow. Note - no snow anywhere except around the tussock, planted by the Council!

I used to be miffed that the council mainly beautify the leafy suburbs in the north west while we in the east missed out. However, we self sufficient denizens of the seaside suburb have been busy growing palm trees and banana plants and what do you know - we don't get snow on the spit - go figure.

So all you citizens of the northwest, who think that living in a frosty swamp near the airport is better than the beach - get planting tropical plants, boot out the council and you will get rid of the snow - pity you still won't have a beach, but you can't blame the council for everything.
