Pool running 45:00 [3] 0.7 km (1:04:17 / km)

Would have preferred to do this in a country pool, but like the NT, country WA seems to regard any day below 30 as unacceptably cold for swimming and all the pools were closed for the season, so it had to wait for arrival in Perth. Ended up going to Victoria Park, this being the closest to East Perth where we're staying. Pleasant enough, although felt as if I took a long time to loosen up. Thought there might have been more people around given that it's school holidays.

The forecasts have been promising "winter is coming" with an ominousness more normally associated with Game of Thrones. It does look like a very significant cold outbreak for the time of year, perhaps even more so further south with a realistic chance of snow on the Stirlings (and an equally realistic chance of a sub-10 maximum somewhere, which would be a first for April in WA if it happens). Hoping, with some support from the models, that the heaviest rain will pass through before tomorrow's event starts.

I was wondering if I was going to get a sighting today of a critically endangered species, but it was only posters and an office of the Environment Minister in Merredin, not the Minister herself.
