While we in Canada are basking in summer temperatures, our friends down under are dealing with heavy snow and strong wind.
The stormy weather caused several accidents. A woman was killed and a boy was injured when a tree fell on a car.
Winds gusted to over 100 km/h in some areas.
Thirty people had to be evacuated from a nursing home after the roof was ripped off.
Some areas say the most snow in decades.
