Why is it hot in Australia for Christmas Where do some people have their Christmas dinner?
Christmas in Australia is still celebrated on 25 December, and this falls during Australia's summer. Consequently, the weather is hot at Christmas over most parts of the mainland. Tasmania and the Australian Alps in the southeastern highlands of the country have been known to experience icy blasts from the Southern Ocean which have brought snowfalls, but these are rare. Because of the hot weather, some people will celebrate down near the beach. Most of Australia's population is concentrated along the coastal fringes, so a great many have access to the beach. The beachside parks are well equipped with gas barbeques maintained by local councils, so many people cook their Christmas dinner on these, or they bring their portable gas barbeques. This is not to say that most people don't cook their "traditional" Christmas dinner at home: they do. But many take advantage of the outdoors lifestyle and fantastic weather, and spend their holiday outdoors.
