  • Monthly Weather Review Australia January 2021
    Monthly Weather Review Australia January 2021 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. 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: 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.

  • Seasonal Climate Summary for the Southern Hemisphere (Spring 2017): Equal-Fifth Warmest Spring on Record, with Rainfall Mixed
    CSIRO PUBLISHING Journal of Southern Hemisphere Earth Systems Science, 2020, 70, 304–327 Seasonal Climate Summary https://doi.org/10.1071/ES19037 Seasonal climate summary for the southern hemisphere (spring 2017): equal-fifth warmest spring on record, with rainfall mixed Skie Tobin Bureau of Meteorology, GPO Box 1289, Melbourne, Vic. 3001, Australia. Email: [email protected] Abstract. This is a summary of the southern hemisphere atmospheric circulation patterns and meteorological indices for spring 2017; an account of seasonal rainfall and temperature for the Australian region and the broader southern hemisphere is also provided. The tropical Pacific Ocean cooled from mid-winter, with an unusually late La Nin˜a becoming established by the end of spring. Spring was the equal-fifth warmest on record, in terms of area-averaged national mean temperature, and was characterised by exceptional September warmth over eastern Australia, while rainfall was mixed geographically and from month-to-month, but below average overall. Keywords: Antarctica, Australia, climate, climate drivers, ENSO, IOD, La Nin˜a, MJO, rainfall, SAM, seasonal climate summary, seasonal summary, southern hemisphere, temperature. Received 2 October 2019, accepted 20 January 2020, published online 17 September 2020 1 Introduction Fig. 2 shows the ENSO 5VAR Index over the same period, with This summary reviews the southern hemisphere and equatorial a three-month binomially weighted moving average. The climate patterns for spring 2017, with particular attention given 5VAR2 is a composite monthly ENSO index, calculated as to the Australasian and equatorial regions of the Pacific and the standardised amplitude of the first principal component of Indian ocean basins.

  • 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.

  • Special Climate Statement
    SPECIAL CLIMATE STATEMENT 43 – INTERIM Extreme January heat Last update 14 January, 2013 Climate Information Services Bureau of Meteorology Note: This statement is based on data available as of 14 January 2013 which may be subject to change as a result of standard quality control procedures. Introduction Large parts of central and southern Australia are currently under the influence of a persistent and widespread heatwave event. This event is ongoing with further significant records likely to be set. Further updates of this statement and associated significant observations will be made as they occur, and a full and comprehensive report on this significant climatic event will be made when the current event ends. The last four months of 2012 were abnormally hot across Australia, and particularly so for maximum (day-time) temperatures. For September to December (i.e. the last four months of 2012) the average Australian maximum temperature was the highest on record with a national anomaly of +1.61 °C, slightly ahead of the previous record of 1.60 °C set in 2002 (national records go back to 1910). In this context the current heatwave event extends a four month spell of record hot conditions affecting Australia. These hot conditions have been exacerbated by very dry conditions affecting much of Australia since mid 2012 and a delayed start to a weak Australian monsoon. The start of the current heatwave event traces back to late December 2012, and all states and territories have seen unusually hot temperatures with many site records approached or exceeded across southern and central Australia. A full list of records broken at stations with long records (>30 years) is given below.
