In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Emily Wong from the University of New South Wales in Sydney about her work on how evolution shapes mammalian genes. As the head of the Regulatory Systems Lab at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute and an associate professor at UNSW, Emily's research centers on gene control and enhancers. We delve into her pivotal 2017 publication in Nature Communications, where she investigated transcription factor binding in liver-specific contexts, shedding light on the regulatory mechanisms at play in mammals. Emily elaborates on her postdoctoral work at the European Bioinformatics Institute and the innovative hybrid systems she used to dissect genetic variation effects, which allowed her to differentiate between cis-regulatory and trans-regulatory influences. By employing techniques like ChIP-seq, she was able to illustrate the combinatorial effects of transcription factors on gene expression, paving the way for her collaborative efforts across disciplines and organisms. We also examine Emily's findings regarding enhancer function through comparative studies between zebrafish and marine sponges. Using historical data on conserved genetic sequences, she and her team identified enhancer regions that displayed activity in specific vertebrate cell types, despite their evolutionary divergence from sponges. This unexpected result suggests deeper insights into how enhancers can be co-opted for new functions as species evolve. Furthermore, we dive into Emily's latest ventures involving advanced methodologies such as chromatin accessibility profiling with ATAC-seq and how these insights can elucidate the genomic landscape of metazoan embryogenesis. She highlights significant correlations between enhancer turnover and DNA replication timing, suggesting evolutionary implications that should be taken into account in future genomic studies.   References Wong, E.

Shayna shares her journey from Australia to the United States, her understanding of mateship, and how she fosters community through her initiative, Seagulls. The conversation delves into the healing power of the ocean, the significance of connection, and practical ways to be generous in our daily lives. Shayna emphasizes that generosity is not just about financial giving but about investing time and creating meaningful relationships.   R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | We grow when we give. Generosity is about being of service. Mateship is a code of conduct that embodies friendship and equality. Creating community is essential for combating loneliness. Time is the most precious resource we have. The ocean has profound healing effects on our well-being. Mindfulness is about being aware of what's going on around us. We all have something to give one another. Home is where you make it, and it's in your heart.

Yoga is integral in her daily life and she is currently Longwave's Yoga resident SeaGal facilitator, devoted to fostering community through a shared connection with the ocean.    Raised on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia, her spiritual path began early through learning about the local environment and waterways. This instilled in Shayna a profound respect for nature and the power of place-based connection. Her vision for SeaGals at Longwave and Wrightsville Beach is rooted in this philosophy: to cultivate meaningful bonds among women and create space to ground, reflect, and honor ourselves in unity. Or simply, her mission is centered around Ocean, Women & Community. These three pillars have helped Shayna inform and hone her leadership styles of inclusion, authenticity and humility and she enters her first year as a 30 year old.   Guest Resources:  Find Seagals at https://longwaveyoga.com/schedule  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/longwaveyoga/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plasticoceanproject.inc/ A Different Kind of Power by Jacinda Ardern Figuring out Thirty by Bridget Hustwaite Blue Mind by Wallace J.

The heart of transition is navigating liminal space. This in-between place offers an entry point into reality, a portal into deeper relationship with oneself and the Divine. We are continually in the process of transition. Each transition is an invitation to awaken to possibility, to consciously go with life rather than resist it. In the Vedic tradition, tirtha is a Sanskrit term for a crossing-over point from ordinary to sacred space. Hospitals, churches, and airports are transitional places. Everything in the universe is food; we just have to figure out how to use it. Savasana, the corpse pose in yoga, can be used to practice dying. We will encounter trials and crises on the path, an inner overturning such that things will never again be what they were. To transform, we must understand that our present form and the way we conceive of ourselves and the world has to disappear for another reality to appear. Winning without losing anything is a vain and illusory hope of ego. There's suffering and struggle but also joy and love in letting go. What if we turned toward transition rather than away from it? We have a capacity to totally agree with the moment. We have to remember to breathe during transitions. If we can relax, we'll have no problem. We can learn to befriend the cage we are in. A gap is a place where the shoreline we have left behind is no longer visible and the shore we are heading for is shrouded in uncertainty. The Way is for heroes. Part of us is afraid, but another part is courageous. There is joy in comradeship and companionship on the path. When we are in transition, it is useful to consider the inevitability of it. Michael Menager is a musician, singer, author, and modern-day troubadour whose third album is titled Line in the Water. Mic Clarke is a writer, practitioner of Vedic astrology, and mental health social worker. Both live in New South Wales, Australia and are students of Lee Lozowick.

Yowie Encounter in the Remote Australian WildernessIntroductionThe Kowmung and Coxs River region lies at the heart of some of Australia's most rugged, mountainous terrain. It is situated just below the southern side of the Blue Mountains. Characterized by high peaks and deep valleys, this untamed land provides an ideal habitat for a Yowie to remain hidden from humanity.The JourneyThree friends set out on a challenging 6 and a half hour mountain bike ride across unforgiving terrain, journeying to a remote location to fish for trout and camp far from civilization.Camping beside a running river can be unsettling—its constant sound often disguises other noises, whether familiar or unknown. The rushing water may imitate voices or footsteps, or completely mask them, heightening the sense of isolation.At this secluded site, the witnesses felt the presence of something unusual. According to their account, the nights felt particularly tense. Early mornings spent fishing were accompanied by strange sounds from the ridge above and an intense sensation of being watched—an experience frequently reported in areas with Yowie activity.The Yowie was seen on the side of the river, leaning over and cupping its hand to drink the water.Humans rarely run through dense thickets of thorns, leaving behind clumps of hair, nor do they possess the stamina to charge up mountains, outpacing three young athletes. The creature in question did not match the description of any known person: standing nearly 7 feet tall, weighing around 130 kg, covered with thick, matted hair up to three inches long, and possessing deep-set eye sockets.Lasting ImpressionThe memory of this encounter remains as vivid today as when it happened. According to many who have experienced similar events, a Yowie encounter is unforgettable—it leaves a lasting mark on those who witness it.For more comprehensive information, reports and history of the Yowie, visit our Website at www.yowiehunters.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/yowiehunters-witness-reports.

The law prohibits “performing a ritual, such as an exorcism or prayer-based practice to change or suppress someone's sexual orientation or gender identity.” Lyle Shelton is the national director of the Family First Australia political party. He wrote online, “Some prayers are now illegal in New South Wales. If a mum, dad, pastor, or friend prays with someone who asks for help to follow God's Word, they could face sanction.” Shelton called for people to pray as the early church did in Acts 4:29. The verse says, “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word.” Israel carried out a strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar yesterday.  Israel carried out a strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar yesterday.  Hamas said the attack killed five members but did not kill the negotiating delegation. The delegation was meeting in Qatar's capital of Doha to consider a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza. It appears to be the first time Israel carried out an attack in Qatar. However, it's not Israel's first strike outside its borders recently. Israel carried out strikes on Hamas leaders in Lebanon and Iran last year.  10,000 Brits march for life About 10,000 Brits participated in the March for Life United Kingdom on Saturday.  The event started with church and prayer services followed by the march and speeches from pro-life leaders. Carla Lockhart, Chair of the Pro-Life Parliamentary Group, addressed the crowd. SPEAKER: “Ladies and gentlemen, young people, boys and girls, what a privilege it is to stand before you today in the streets of London. “I traveled from Northern Ireland this morning to stand in solidarity with you, fellow campaigners, who speak up for life. “Friends, today's theme is human rights for all humans. Then surely this simple truth must be the foundation upon which we build. The most basic human right is the right to life.” Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, the co-director of March for Life, spoke at the event. She had previously faced arrest for praying silently outside an abortion mill.  Vaughan-Spruce reflected on the success of the march. She said, “Whilst the center of London seemed to have erupted in chaos on Saturday, with police desperately trying to control various protests and arresting hundreds of people, the pro-life crowd exemplified the peace and joy of those who are confident that that their cause is just, and their hope is rooted in something greater than politics.” Trump announces protection of prayer in public schools In the United States, President Donald Trump addressed the Religious Liberty Commission at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. on Monday. Trump announced that the Department of Education will soon issue new guidance protecting the right to prayer in public schools. Listen to comments from President Trump. TRUMP: “When faith gets weaker, our country seems to get weaker. When faith gets stronger, as it is right now, we're having a very good period of time, after some rough years. “Under the Trump administration, we're defending our rights and restoring our identity as a nation under God. We are one nation under God, and we always will be.” (applause) Psalm 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance.” Florida first state to end vaccine requirements Florida announced plans last week to become the first state to end vaccine requirements. Not just COVID vaccine requirements, but all vaccine requirements. Listen to comments from Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo. LADAPO: “Your body is a gift from God. What you put into your body, (applause) what you put into your body, is because of your relationship with your body and your God. I don't have that right. Government does not have that right!” The plan includes ending all vaccine mandates for school-aged children.  Americans having fewer children And finally, Gallup released a new survey on Americans' ideal family size. On average, U.S. adults think 2.7 is the ideal number of children for a family to have. That's down from 3.6 in the 1950s. Meanwhile, the actual U.S. birth rate is at an all-time low of 1.6 births per woman. That's down from 3.7 in the 1950s. The replacement rate is generally defined as 2 children per woman.  The survey notes, “Men, U.S. adults who attend religious services weekly or monthly, Republicans, people of color, and men under age 50 are significantly more likely than their counterparts to prefer three or more children.” Psalm 127:3 says, “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 10th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Questa lezione analizza l'idea di conoscenza come esperienza trasformativa, evidenziando come l'interazione tra soggetti e ambienti possa orientare la formazione individuale all'interno di una comunità democratica. Italo Testa  è professore di Filosofia Teoretica e Sociale, Teoria Critica e Filosofia Politica presso l'Università di Parma. È inoltre poeta, saggista, traduttore. È stato Visiting Professor presso l'Université Paris-Panthéon-Assas, l'University of New South Wales, ed Erasmus Visiting Lecturer presso la Freie Universität di Berlino. Le sue ricerche spaziano dalla filosofia classica tedesca al pragmatismo americano, con particolare attenzione al pensiero di John Dewey, così come alla teoria critica, all'embodied cognition, all'ontologia sociale, alla teoria dell'argomentazione e alla poesia contemporanea. I suoi studi affrontano le questioni del riconoscimento reciproco, della nozione di seconda natura, dell'abitudine e delle pratiche sociali, delle nozioni di anafora e ripetizione. Ha approfondito il pensiero di John Dewey, in particolare il nesso fra educazione ed esperienza, le implicazioni filosofico-politiche della sua concezione della democrazia come forma di vita, esplorando l'ontologia sociale e la dimensione esperienziale nella sua filosofia. Dirige la rivista di poesia, arti e scritture “L'Ulisse” ed è coordinatore del lit-blog “Le parole e le cose”. Tra i suoi libri: Ragione impura. Una jam session su metafisica e immaginazione (con Rino Genovese, Milano 2006); Teorie dell'argomentazione. Un'introduzione alle logiche del dialogo (con Paola Cantù, Milano 2006); Lo spazio sociale della ragione. Da Hegel in avanti (con Luigi Ruggiu, Milano 2009); La natura del riconoscimento. Riconoscimento naturale e ontologia sociale nello Hegel di Jena (Milano 2010). Ha curato, con Fausto Caruana, Habits.

rWotD Episode 3051: Charlie Oliver (trade unionist) Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Wednesday, 10 September 2025, is Charlie Oliver (trade unionist).Cecil Thompson "Charlie" Oliver AM (23 December 1901 – 24 February 1990) was an Australian trade unionist and politician. He was a Labor Party member of the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia from 1948 to 1951, representing the seat of Boulder, and was later prominent in the labour movement in New South Wales as the state secretary (1951–1978) and state president (1980–1985) of the Australian Workers' Union.Oliver was born in Bangor, Carnarvonshire, Wales, to Elizabeth (née Thompson) and John Murray Oliver. His family moved to England when he was a child, living first in Chester and later in Liverpool. He left school at the age of 13 to work as an agricultural labourer, and emigrated to Western Australia after World War I with an older brother. Oliver initially settled in Meekatharra, where he worked as a miner, and later also lived in Koolanooka, Perenjori, and Big Bell. He joined the Australian Workers' Union (AWU) in 1923, and in 1942 accepted a position as a district-level organiser.In 1943, Oliver was appointed state secretary of the AWU's mining division, which was based in Boulder. He entered parliament at the 1948 Boulder by-election, which had been caused by the death of Philip Collier (a former premier). His chief opponent was the Liberal Party candidate, Billy Snedden, who was a future federal Leader of the Opposition. Oliver was re-elected unopposed at the 1950 state election, but felt under-utilised in parliament, and in mid-1951 resigned to accept a position as the AWU's New South Wales state secretary.Oliver remained AWU state secretary until 1978, helping to improve the union's finances and membership numbers. He then served as AWU state president from 1980 to 1985. Oliver also served as ALP state vice-president during the 1955 party split, and was credited with helping to reduce its impact. He was elected state president of the party in 1960, and remained in the position until his voluntary resignation in 1970, although the party won only a single state election during that time (in 1962). In retirement, Oliver lived in Sydney, dying there in February 1990 (aged 88). He had been made a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in 1984, "for services to trade unionism".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:16 UTC on Wednesday, 10 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Charlie Oliver (trade unionist) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.

In this powerful RU OK? Day episode, singer-songwriter Lynda Manwaring joins Dr. Jo Braid for an intimate conversation about using music as a pathway to mental health healing and authentic connection. Lynda shares her personal journey from bottling up emotions to embracing vulnerability, including how the loss of her closest friend to mental health challenges inspired her to speak openly about these experiences through her songwriting. The conversation explores how music bypasses our mental filters to access genuine emotion, why creativity flows directly from the heart without ego, and how sharing our authentic stories through any medium creates space for others to open up about their own struggles. Lynda offers practical wisdom on daily self-care practices, the importance of accepting life's inherent difficulties, and why kindness—both to ourselves and others—can literally change our brain chemistry through oxytocin release. This episode beautifully demonstrates that asking "R U OK?" any day of the year, combined with genuine authenticity and creative expression, can create the life-changing conversations our communities desperately need.Resources: drjobraid.com Lifeline - www.lifeline.org.au RUOK - www.ruok.org.au/ Lynda Manwaring Website - www.lyndamanwaringmusic.com/ 'No Fortune Teller' on Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/3H0foQ3bn7Tooq0chJsP46?si=yWE1JCmcQx2PzfQ8w377FQ I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations.

Chewbacca and Orangutan: Descriptors in Yowie ReportsThe name "Chewbacca" is frequently used to describe the general appearance of a Yowie. Witnesses often refer to "Orangutan" when describing the color and look of the Yowie's hair. While there are black and white Yowies reported, the most common hair color described is a reddish brown. Some witnesses have noted longer hair under the arms, further enhancing the resemblance to an orangutan.Possible Origins: Gigantopithecus and IsolationThe orangutan's closest relative, Gigantopithecus, was believed to have been extinct for some time. However, evidence shows these creatures once lived in Indonesia, right near Australia. When sea levels rose and severed the land corridor connecting Australia to the rest of the world, any creatures present became landlocked—remaining isolated on the continent.Yowies in this area are often described as being covered in matted, orangutan-colored hair, with deep-set, large eyes that lack visible eye color—only dark or black eye balls. Their facial skin appears gray. Some speculate that the orange-colored Yowie may represent its own distinct species.Wollomombi is situated just west of Coffs Harbour and east of Armidale, within the Great Dividing Range. This region is known for frequent reports of Yowie and Big Cat sightings.When first discovered, this creature's reaction was one of shock, but, unlike many other cases, this did not escalate into aggression. Likely, it sensed more humans approaching and chose to flee. Notably, Yowie behavior can differ between day and night, and between encountering solo hikers versus groups, highlighting the importance of safety in numbers.For more comprehensive information, reports and history of the Yowie, visit our Website at www.yowiehunters.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/yowiehunters-witness-reports.

Sunrise Energy Metals (ASX:SRL) – First Primary Scandium Mine to Displace China

Interview with Sam Riggall, Managing Director & CEO of Sunrise Energy MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/sunrise-energy-metals-srl-400m-for-nickel-cobalt-developer-1954Recording date: 26th August 2025Sunrise Energy Metals (ASX:SRL) is developing what would become the world's first primary scandium mine in New South Wales, Australia, as global supply chains face unprecedented disruption from China's strategic export controls. The company's Syerston project aims to address Western nations' urgent need for secure access to this critical technology metal.In April 2025, China imposed sweeping export restrictions on scandium, classifying it as a dual-use material with both civilian and military applications. This decisive move has effectively severed Western access to 85% of global refined scandium supply and 100% of metallized scandium required by the semiconductor industry. CEO Sam Riggall describes the situation as creating "inherent limitations that Chinese supply will never be able to service in western markets going forward."The supply crisis comes at a critical juncture for scandium demand across three strategic sectors. In semiconductors, scandium enables the radio frequency filtering that made 5G technology possible, with military applications operating up to 13 GHz and next-generation technology proven to work beyond 20 GHz. The aerospace industry values scandium-aluminum alloys for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, while the fuel cell sector relies on scandium for enhanced performance and longevity in solid oxide systems.Sunrise's geological advantage positions it uniquely to capitalize on this supply vacuum. While Chinese producers extract scandium at concentrations of 10-20 parts per million from waste streams, Sunrise's deposit contains 600-700 ppm grades - a 70-fold concentration advantage. "When you look at primary mine supply, particularly high concentration, you cannot find a lower cost point than what you will get out of the ground in central New South Wales," Riggall emphasizes.The project's strategic importance extends beyond economics. At planned capacity of 40-50 tons annually, Sunrise could theoretically replace 100% of China's current production, addressing critical national security concerns for Western defense contractors. The company expects to complete its feasibility study by September 2025, with estimated capital requirements around $100 million and an 18-month construction timeline, positioning it to meet urgent Western supply security needs in this pivotal technological battleground.View Sunrise Energy Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/sunrise-energy-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

KINETIC STRIKE REPORTED IN CARIBBEAN SEA AS US NAVY SINKS SUSPECTED NARCO VESSEL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Australia: The overall situation remains tense following the continuation of various immigration related issues around the continent. This morning a Bangladeshi man was charged with various offenses for his role in causing a traffic accident which killed two people in New South Wales over the weekend.Analyst Comment: Over the past few weeks, similar atmospherics to what have sprung up in England have also taken root in some places around Australia, with many demonstrations and protests popping up over the past few days. It's tough to say how impactful these demonstrations are, but these types of events do highlight that dissent is growing.France: A high profile shooting took place in Marseilles this morning, following a knife attack that originated from a dispute at a hotel. Local authorities state that a migrant from Tunisia was living at a hotel in the downtown area, but was confronted by hotel staff after failing to pay his bill. This resulted in the man becoming belligerent, producing a knife, and stabbing 4x people at the hotel (including the manager and other staff members). Plain-clothes police from the Anti-Crime Brigade (BAC) responded quickly to the scene, making contact with the man on the street a short distance from the hotel. The man made jihadi comments before attacking the police, which resulted in him being shot and killed. No word yet on the condition of the hotel staff wounded during the attack.Analyst Comment: The assailant was identified as 35-year-old "Abdelkader D", and allegedly had an extensive criminal record. Due to this record, the assailant was already known to police, but nevertheless was given a residency permit valid until 2032. Caribbean: This afternoon the White House announced the kinetic targeting of a vessel suspected of trafficking narcotics. The vessel was engaged and possibly sunk after departing from Venezuela, with no survivors being reported following the strike.Analyst Comment: Beyond the initial announcement, almost zero additional details have been provided. Nevertheless, this targeting is an escalation of the conflict and serves to indicate that kinetic targeting efforts have been authorized. Normally, the standard interdiction tactics have involved the disabling of suspected narco-vessels, which often relies upon using "lethal" weapons to shoot a vessel's engine to render it inoperable. In this case, the White House has so far referred to this incident as a "lethal strike", though without commenting on the type of weapon system used for this engagement. In any case, this targeting effort suggests that the policy has now changed to more of a "shoot first, ask questions later" policy.-HomeFront-Illinois: Tensions continue as the federal involvement in Chicago looms. Over the past few days, the White House has continued to express plans to deploy National Guard forces around the city to combat crime. At one of yesterday's protest events, Mayor Brandon Johnson has called on city residents to "defend" the city when troops arrive.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Most of the rhetoric from Chicago officials is purely posturing. However as the federal deployment of troops comes to fruition, the potential for bad things to happen very quickly always remains a risk. No one can argue that Chicago is a safe city, and even the most anti-Trump demonstrators have to admit that the extreme levels of crime have only gotten worse over the years. On the other hand, there's no guarantee that the city's problems will be solved with the National Guard. And since local politicians and powe

#OZWATCH MAGP IE FRIEND 4/4 - Dallas and the Apex Predators Jeremy Zakis in New South Wales recounted an unexpected encounter involving his dog, Dallas, and a sparrow hawk. Dallas, accustomed to receiving treats for local birds, was surprised by this "apex predator" not commonly seen in urban backyards. The sparrow hawk was described as a magnificent creature, and Dallas reacted with confusion, watching it for a minute before retreating inside. Other local birds, like magpies and cockatoos, also kept a "wide berth," and Jeremy observed the skies cleared of boisterous birds later. John Batchelor shared a similar experience in New England with a resident red-tailed hawk on his farm, which he called a "king". He observed orioles "buzzing" and squawking at this hawk near their nests, demonstrating that even top predators can be challenged. Jeremy noted that routinely seeing hawks circling high at lunchtime is not common in New South Wales, JEREMY ZAKIS, NEW SOUTH WALES. #FRIENDSOFHISTORYDEBATINGSOCIETY

#OZWATCH: 3/4 - Ashes Preparation: Psychological Tactics and English Threats The pre-Ashes period involves psychological tactics. Australian fast bowler Josh Hazelwood publicly praised England's batting lineup as "one of the most fearsome ever". This is interpreted as a psychological maneuver to either mock England, make them overconfident, or encourage them to "rest on their laurels" and be less prepared, giving Australia an advantage. The English team is expected to be "very, very strong" after a "soul search" following past Ashes losses. Joe Root, a "very good batter" who has adopted a more conservative style, is considered one of Australia's "biggest threats" and has mentored many other English players. Harry Brookke is also mentioned as a key player for England. JEREMY ZAKIS, NEW SOUTH WALES. #FRIENDSOFHISTORYDEBATINGSOCIETY

#OzWatch: 1919: Sydney  1/4 - Unprecedented Australian Winter Weather Australia is experiencing highly unusual and severe winter weather, defying Bureau of Meteorology predictions for a mild end to the season. New South Wales has seen snow at exceptionally low altitudes (300-400 feet, near sea level), while tropical Queensland faced cold, windy, and wet conditions. The southern continent endured blustery conditions and significant wind damage, with Victoria experiencing sustained winds of 60-65 mph, much stronger than usual. Most remarkably, two "fast-moving tornadoes" struck Adelaide's northern suburbs, a city whose stable, dry climate typically prevents such formations. The Bureau attributes this to a combination of La Niña-like conditions (warmer Pacific, more moisture), the Indian Ocean Dipole(cooler Indian Ocean), and a sudden Antarctic blast that trapped cold air over the continent, creating intense weather. Meteorologists are reportedly "scratching their heads" about the system, anticipating "wild, freaky weather" and an extended winter.1/4 - Unprecedented Australian Winter Weather Australia is experiencing highly unusual and severe winter weather, defying Bureau of Meteorology predictions for a mild end to the season.
