Maatsyker Island has to be one of the worst climates on the planet  Mt Wellington might be worse. In either case, neither are livable. Rediculous climates.  |

Up to 1400 mm over the last 12 months in eastern parts of the region. That's quite a feat and about twice the average.

I understand that much of the northern Indian subcontinent experiences higher temperatures before and after the peak of the summer monsoon, but damn those are some insane "heat indices" and dew points for the area around the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta and Northern Myanmar.   For some reason northern Myanmar and Assam tend to get consistently higher rainy season dew points than most of the rest of monsoonal Asia, outside of Vietnam's Red River Delta during June-ish and the Indus River Valley during July/August. |

Australia's fourth-warmest September on record ( source: Weatherzone )  Australia as a whole was 1.89°C above the long-term average in September, which made it the fourth-warmest September on record. In a clear signal of the warming climate, it was also the 20th year in a row of above-average September temperatures nationwide. The warm overall Setpember average may come as a surprise to some people, as several cold temperature records were set during September 2024. They included: Canberra dipped to –6.9°C on September 16, its lowest spring temperature in 101 years of records. Adelaide had its coldest spring morning in 137 years of records on September 17, with a low of 1.3°C. It's not often you see a cold record (for any month) outside of winter, but the Eyre Peninsula town of Cleve, SA, shivered through its coldest night on record when it reached –0.4°C on September 17. Indeed it was the first subzero night on record for the town of 1000 residents. There were also snowfalls just west of Sydney on the Central Tablelands in a cold outbreak late in the month while Tasmania saw heavier and more frequent snowfalls during September than in any month of the 2024 winter. So September was not without its chilly moments, but overall, maximum temps nationwide were 1.9°C above the long-term average, while minimum temps were 1.88°C above average.  Weatherzone's outlook for October 2024 is for the likelihood of above-average maximums and minimums for most of Australia, while in terms of rainfall, eastern Australia and parts of the NT could also see slightly above-average totals.  |

Appropriate start to October, low was 38 (3 c) this morning, the coldest of the season. However, the unseasonable warmth continues. NWS has highs of 89 Wednesday and 90 Saturday, so they’ll be two good shots of breaking the October record (88).

High 10.4c, low -0.4c, that is the coldest low so far and so the new month started with cold weather. And it was also quite windy.
Sea water 13.4c.
The national weather agency forecasts that October will be rather cooler than average.

Phoenix broke its September record high with a temp of 117 (47 c) on the 28th. Yes, setting the September record high just 3 days from October.
Prior to this year, their latest 110 (43 c) was on the 19th, yet had 5 straight from the 25-29th.

High was 88 (31.1 c) today, which ties the October record high, also set in 1926 and 1991.
Saturday's forecast got downgraded, so there won't be a second chance at the record. However, the forecast looks glorious with mid 70s-low 80s highs and sunny for the foreseeable future.

The next week is looking like a sloppy wet mess here. At least it can't be 100 degrees while it's raining I guess  |

Don't make this common daylight saving mistake ( source: Weatherzone )  ^^Image: Don't forget to do this if you have an old-school clock. Daylight saving starts this weekend in NSW, Victoria, the ACT, South Australia and Tasmania, with clocks instantly ticking forward to 3 am at 2am on Sunday. As ever, Western Australia, Queensland and the NT will not join the party – meaning there will be a three-hour time difference between Perth and the southeastern capital cities. "Spring forward, fall back." That has always been the most helpful phrase to remind you whether to turn the clocks forward or backward. Not that most people change their clocks manually in the digital age, but back in the day, some people always seemed to set their timepieces the wrong way by an hour. But there's another thing people get wrong all the time. They call it "daylight savings" – like the savings you (hopefully) have in the bank. But the phrase is not plural. It is, quite simply, "daylight saving". As in, you are saving daylight by making sunrise an hour later and sunset an hour later. According to the Royal Australian Historical Society, daylight saving was briefly introduced way back in 1916 as a wartime fuel-saving measure during World War I. Tasmania was the first state to adopt daylight saving permanently. That was in 1967, and it was an alternative to power rationing during a drought. In 1971, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, and the ACT also adopted daylight saving. Queensland abandoned it a year later. Western Australia and the Northern Territory have never had it.  Daylight saving is seen as most advantageous to city dwellers working a traditional 9 to 5 working day, who can enjoy leisure activities after work in natural light. But people on the land say it disrupts their schedule, and the schedule of the animals they work with, while people in northern Australia prefer their extra hour of light at the coolest time of day – hence the reluctance of Queenslanders and Territorians to adopt it. Whether you're a fan or a foe of daylight saving, just remember that it's not "daylight savings". We are saving an hour of daylight, not "savings" it. |
