We are now up to three weeks without rain and only one rain day in the last five weeks.
It felt like a warm winter and it was. Although Dec and Jan were actually pretty close to ave, Feb was significantly warmer than usual with a mean temp of 22.4 compared to the ave of 20.0. March feels significantly hotter again but the figures are not out for that yet.
Interestingly, this has coincided with a very hot March in southern Australia where several heat records have been broken. It's almost like global warming has suddenly taken a dramatic lurch forward.
There looks to be a few fronts coming down from the north but it's hard to say if they will bring any falls here. March is meant to be dry (ave 40.5ml) but this is looking like an extra dry one.
Anyway, the radar is flaring up in a band just to the east of us and it looks like we might be a chance of getting some of that.
