Mwr/ to Keep the Monthly Weather Review As Timely As Possible, Much of the Information Is Based on Electronic Reports Monthly Weather Review Australia January 2014 The Monthly Weather Review - Australia is produced by the Bureau of Meteorology to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Australia for the month. This product replaces the seven State and Territory Monthly Weather Reviews that were produced from January 1965 to June 2013, and are available electronically back to July 2008 at www.bom.gov.au/climate/mwr/ To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality control procedures have been carried out. Any major discrepancies will be noted in later issues. We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to its readers' needs. If you have any comments or suggestions, please contact us: National Climate Centre Bureau of Meteorology GPO Box 1289 Melbourne VIC 3001 Australia [email protected] www.bom.gov.au Units of measurement Except where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour (km/h). Observation times and periods Each station in Australia makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past 24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset. In this publication, the following conventions are used for assigning dates to the observations made: Maximum temperatures are for the 24 hours from 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the afternoon of that day. Minimum temperatures are for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the early morning of that day. Mean temperatures are the average of the daily maximum and daily minimum temperatures. Daily rainfall is for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. This means a significant fraction of the rain may have occurred on the previous calendar day. Monthly rainfall is for the period from 9 am on the last day of the previous month to 9 am on the last day of this month. Maximum daily wind gusts are in the 24 hours from midnight to midnight. Area averages for temperature are calculated using the ACORN-SAT dataset. Climatological values The climatological averages shown in the text and tables are generally long-term means based on observations from the years 1961–1990. They are not shown for sites with less than 25 years of record in that time, as they cannot then be calculated reliably. Climatological extremes are generally taken from all available years of record; the number of years can vary markedly from site to site. Records The tables of records are not exhaustive, as they only show sites with at least 30 years of record. This may exclude locations where a new site has been established; this means even some major cities and towns may not be listed. Maps The temperature and rainfall maps are intended to give an overview of the country. There could be discrepancies between the values shown on these maps and those at individual locations, as a result of the way the maps are generated. A wide range of maps of rainfall, temperature and other variables, covering the whole country and smaller regions can be found at www.bom.gov.au/climate/maps. Accessing data Tables of daily values for selected sites are included toward the back of the Monthly Weather Review. Data from many more sites and for other times are available from www.bom.gov.au/climate/data/. Copyright © Commonwealth of Australia 2014 This work is copyright.

  • New Air Conditioning Design Temperatures for Queensland
    New air-conditioning design temperatures for Queensland, Australia by Eric Peterson¹, Nev Williams¹, Dale Gilbert¹, Klaus Bremhorst² ¹Thermal Comfort Initiative of Queensland Department of Public Works, Brisbane ²Professor of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Queensland, St Lucia Abstract : This paper presents results of a detailed analysis of meteorological data to determine air conditioning design temperatures dry bulb and wet bulb for hundreds of locations throughout Queensland, using the tenth-highest daily maximum observed per year. This is a modification of the AIRAH 1997 method that uses only 3PM records of temperature. In this paper we ask the reader to consider Australian Bureau of Meteorology official “climate summaries” as a benchmark upon which to compare various previously published comfort design temperatures, as well as the new design temperatures proposed in the present paper. We see some possible signals from climate change, but firstly we should apply all available historical data to establish outdoor design temperatures that will ensure that cooling plant are correctly sized in the near future. In a case- studies of Brisbane, we find that inner city temperatures are rising, that airport temperatures are not, and that suburban variability is substantially important.

[6 NoVE:Mmm.] Savings Bank, Etc., Bill. 1561 I refer to the report on page 472 of the pro­ ceedings in reference to the motion for the approval of the plans of the proposed railway extension from Mirani to Cattle Creek. The SPEAKER : Do I under;tand that the hon. member is referring to something that took place in committee ? Mr. POWERS: I am referring at present to '' Votes and Proceedings." The SPEAKER : Recounting something that took place in committee ? Mr, POWERS: Yes. The SPJ<JAKER: Then the hon. member is not in order. That must be decided in com­ mittee. The hon. member cannot raise a ques­ tion of privilege in the House on what has taken place in committee. He must raise the questio.n in committee. Then the committee can report to the House, and the House can act on that report. Mr. POWERS: I thought that as it was a question of privilege I would take the earliest possible opportunity of correcting "Votes and Proceedings." Although the proceedings took place in committee, surely this House can correct the " Votes and Proceedings." The SPEAKER : There is no report whatever from the committee. Progress only has been reported ; and the House cannot recognise what has been done in committee until a report has been received from the committee. Therefore, the hon. member must raise his question in committee. Mr. POWERS: I accept your ruling, and I will take the earliest opportunity of drawing attention to the matter when the House is in committee.
