Melbourne is closer to Antarctica than it is to Darwin.

If you’ve ever spent time in Melbourne, you’ve probably heard locals complain about the weather. "Four seasons in a day!" they grumble, while clutching a coffee in one hand and an emergency umbrella in the other. But have you ever stopped to wonder why Melbourne is so unpredictable and, let’s be honest, a little on the chilly side? The answer lies in geography.

Melbourne is closer to the land of penguins, icebergs, and sub-zero temperatures than it is to Australia’s tropical north. No wonder Melburnians are always layering up!

Being closer to Antarctica means Melbourne frequently gets hit with cold winds blowing straight up from the icy south. These Antarctic blasts don’t care about your weekend picnic plans. Melbourne’s weather is largely influenced by the Roaring Forties, a band of strong westerly winds that whip around the Southern Hemisphere between latitudes 40° and 50°. Since Melbourne sits at around 37.8°S, it often gets a taste of these chilly winds, especially in winter.

Who would win? Australia is home to around 48 million kangaroos, while Uruguay’s population is just 3.5 million.

Imagine if all those kangaroos suddenly invaded Uruguay; each Uruguayan would face a wild challenge, having to confront 14 kangaroos each.
