Rain, Hail, Ice..... and it is only May!!

Oh today has been way too cold for a May day, surely?
I am in suburban Melbourne and we have had rain and hail showers all day, even the rain falls thick as slushies, not quite ice but definitely NOT just water.  brrrr.
This was my driveway 10 minutes ago, and I dare not step on the front steps, so icy, so slippery
I did have to go to the post office this morning, managed that between two downpours of rain. I so so wanted to go over to join the Northern Crafters tonight, but it would be madness to go out in this weather..   When did Autumn turn into winter in a day???  or am I just getting old and soft?
back to my knitting....................
