Summer is Vanishing, and the Climate in My State is Getting Cooler
In the state of Victoria, Australia. Our winters are getting colder, and so are all the other seasons. We barely have summer anymore.

Whatever your perception is, the actual facts are these:
Victoria's overall area-averaged mean temperature for 2025 was 15.0 °C. This was 0.94 °C above the long-term 1961–1990 average, making it the state's eighth-warmest year on record since 1910
https://www.bom.gov.au/climate/current/annual/vic/archive/2025.summary.shtml
Summer (Dec 2025–Feb 2026): Victoria’s area-averaged mean temperature was 21.0 ° C, which is 1.26 ° C above the long-term historical average, ranking it among the top 10 warmest summers on record.

... and you can keep on going with this same (expected) pattern ...

@SnickersDOM "Whatever your perception..."
Well, this year we went directly from a reasonably warm summer (and not a scorching one, which is what we should have got) straight into winter, skipping autumn.
And it's rather odd that you've chosen to be so selective about this, not mentioning (for example) the fact that your last linked source mentions that the "Grampians (Mount William) had its coldest autumn night on record".
"Page not found" for the link about the last one (and your links don't work in any case, I had to copy and paste them).
Oh dear, the one above that one doesn't seem to work either.
