16.01.2022 October 2020 was a warm and wet one across Australia, with all states but Western Australia receiving above average rainfall. Giant hail lashed the east at the end of the month Warm and wet conditions are expected to continue in November.... More details at http://www.ewn.com.au/news/weather-news-2020-11-03.aspx

16.01.2022 ** La Nina officially declared by Bureau of Meteorology ** The Bureau of Meteorology has officially declared a La Nina event is underway as of today, increasing the odds of wetter conditions over the next several months for Australia. Earlier this month, both the Japanese and USA climate agencies had declared La Nina, however the criteria used by the Bureau of Meteorology (such as Sea Surface temperatures, trade wind strength, Southern Oscillation Index and equatorial cloudin...ess) are slightly more strict, with the thresholds finally being met. The 90-day SOI ending on September 27 was +8.1, typical of La Nina event (where sustained positive SOI values above +7 are indicative). All climate models used by the Bureau suggest further cooling is likely, with La Nina thresholds likely to persist until at least January 2021. During La Nina events, rainfall is typically higher over northern and eastern Australia, and maximum temperatures cooler than average due to increased cloudiness. This wetter signal is less pronounced over Western Australia, as the trade winds lose their moisture across land as they travel west. This wetter signal will increase the chances of storms, floods and widespread rain this spring and summer, a stark contrast to spring/summer 2019/2020. This month, the weather patterns have already been strongly suggestive of a La Nina, with trade winds pushing moisture well inland and widespread rain across parts of the interior and South Australia. Further widespread rain is likely within the first week of October across parts of southeastern Australia as a trough is fed by fresh, humid northeasterly winds pushing into the nation's interior.

16.01.2022 ** Hot and dry end to November for most of Australia despite La Nina The last ten days of November are going to end on a hot and dry note for large parts of the country, with very dry and unusually hot conditions for many areas despite La Nina. After a relatively cool first week of the month, temperatures have rapidly climbed and rain mostly vanished after a wet October for many areas. More than halfway through the month, most of the country hasn't even received 20% of its av...erage monthly rainfall, excluding southwestern parts of Western Australia (where Perth is having its wettest November on record). Temperatures have been well above average across most areas, particularly over the interior, Tasmania, parts of Victoria, South Australia, inland Queensland, inland New South Wales, the Northern Territory and northern and eastern Western Australia, with some locations including Alice Springs, Darwin and Hobart on track to record their warmest November on record. Unfortunately, the remainder of the month is likely to see more of the same for many areas, with conditions remaining unusually hot and dry for November. The exception to this will be over parts of southeast Australia on Sunday and Monday (where 15-30mm could fall over parts of Victoria), mid to late next week over the east coast (mainly northeast NSW and eastern QLD), and the tropics where shower and storm activity is expected to increase. Whilst the interior will remain unusually hot throughout the entire end of the month, notably hot days are likely to affect SA tomorrow (with significant fire danger), before an extremely hot airmass develops later this month over northern and central WA and moves into southeast WA and SA on the final days of the month, with potential for maximum temperatures in the mid to high 40s. So why is it so hot and dry despite La Nina?? Whilst the La Nina continues to intensify and trade winds remain strong, this alone is not enough to produce rainfall. Persistant and strong upper level ridges over central and southeast Australia have been commonplace this month, causing all rainbearing systems to slip south. As a result, the moisture that has built up from the trade winds is not used as there is no 'trigger' to produce rain. However, these ridges haven't been affecting southwest Australia, which has seen very wet conditions for November due to frequent frontal systems in the first half of the month. In all probability this 'ridgy' pattern will break down within a few weeks, with models suggesting a return to more typical La Nina conditions from early to mid December. This should also help reduce the amount of heat over the country as well. More details at http://www.ewn.com.au/news/weather-news-2020-11-20.aspx
