Monthly Weather Review

Australia
February 2016

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:

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.

Climatological values
The climatological averages shown in the text and tables are generally long-term means based on observations from the years
19611990. 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/.

February was a warm month for Australia and the
ninth-warmest February on record. The national mean
temperature was 0.92 C above the historical
average, with the monthly mean maximum
temperature 1.43 C above average and the monthly
mean minimum temperature 0.41 C above average.
Mean temperatures and mean maxima were above
average in all States, and mean minimum
temperatures were above average in all States except
Western Australia and South Australia.

warmest for both maximum and minimum


temperatures. Tasmania was sixth-warmest for
minimum temperatures. A heat wave in northwestern Queensland in the last week of February
resulted in a number of records for daily maximum
temperatures being broken in this region (see page
13).
Rainfall was mostly below average across the
country. Below average rainfall was experienced
throughout the country's north, northern South
Australia and for much of New South Wales and
eastern Victoria. New South Wales recorded its driest
February since 1978, with the statewide area average
rainfall 70 per cent lower than the long term mean.
There were two tropical cyclones in the Australian
region in February: Uriah and Tatiana both formed off
the Western Australia coast. However, it was rainfall
from ex-tropical cyclone Stan in the first few days of
February that brought very much above average
rainfall to the southwest of Western Australia and the
southern coast of South Australia.

Queensland recorded its fifth-warmest February on


record for mean temperatures and equal sixth-

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

Significant weather
Tropical cyclones Uriah and Tatiana

Heavy rain in Queensland

Two tropical cyclones developed in the Australian


region during February, but neither caused major
impacts on the Australia mainland.

An active monsoon trough north of Australia directed


a moist and unstable airmass over Queensland which
produced widespread thunderstorms and heavy
rainfall across much of the State at the start of the
month, with over 50 mm rain in an hour recorded in
numerous locations. Urandangi in the Georgina
Catchment recorded over 160 mm rain in 3 hours on
the 3rd, causing flash flooding. Aplin Weir in the
Townsville area recorded 91 mm in 30 minutes,
128 mm in 1 hour, and 181 mm over 2 hours on the
8th. There were reports of hail over 2 cm in diameter
at Narangba, North Lakes and Ocean View, northern
suburbs of Brisbane metropolitan area on the 1st.

Tropical cyclone Tatiana was named over the


northwest Coral Sea in the afternoon on the 11th,
Tatiana tracked south and remained well offshore to
the Queensland coast before dissipating on the 15th.
Southeastern Queensland beaches encountered
some powerful, long period swells.
Tropical cyclone Uriah developed west of the Cocos
Islands on the evening on the 13th, and move
southwest into the La Reunion region on the evening
on the 14th. Some minor damage, such as road
erosion and fallen trees were experienced on the
Cocos (Keeling) Islands.

Large bushfires in western Tasmania


Large bushfires in western Tasmania that started in
mid-January continued to burn through February.
Extra threats arose when winds strengthened then
shifted southwesterly in the wake of a cold front on
the 15th, testing containment lines on the
northeastern flank of Mawbanna fire. Rain on the 25th
provided some relief, but 25 fires with a perimeter of
around 1000 km were still burning by the end of the
month. A total of about 123 800 ha had been burnt,
but there had been relatively little stock, building or
vehicle losses.

Grass fire in Victoria


On the 23rd, a significant grass and scrub fire at
Mount Bolton in the northwest of Ballarat destroyed
some buildings and fences, while another fire near
Somerville in the Frankston area destroyed part of the
Stony Point train line, causing disruptions to services.
Three houses were burnt in the fires.

Heavy rain across southern South Australia


At the start of February, a deep low (ex-tropical
cyclone Stan) crossed the Nullarbor, then tracked
southeastward across the southern parts of the South
Australia and western Victoria.
Heavy rain of 40 to 80 mm was recorded in the
Nullarbor area, southern Eyre Peninsula and the
Fleurieu Peninsula. The bulk of rain fell in less than
three hours causing flash flooding at Port Lincoln and
Victor Harbor. A shopping centre ceiling at Victor
Harbor collapsed.

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

River gauges in the Georgina, Fitzroy and CondamineBalonne catchments reached moderate flood levels,
though no significant impacts reported.

Abnormally high tides on the Queensland


southeast coast
Ex-tropical cyclone Winston, though well off the
Queensland coast, caused large and long period
easterly swells, leading to dangerous surf conditions
at beaches south of Sandy Cape on the 27th.
Abnormally high tides occurred at exposed beaches
between the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast, and
from Stradbroke to Moreton Islands.

Thunderstorms
An active west coast trough produced thunderstorms
over the South West Land Division on the 27th and
28th. Storms accompanied by strong winds and heavy
rain caused tree, fence and roof damage at Bruce
Rock, while Dumbleyung Aerodrome recorded a gust
of 104 km/h.
A severe thunderstorm produced a significant wind
gust of 117 km/h at Dalby Airport, and 107 mm rainfall
in an hour at Townson in the southeastern
Queensland on the 19th.
Golf ball sized hail was reported in Queanbeyan and
the ACT, causing damage to houses and vehicles on
the 11th.
Severe thunderstorms in the Sydney and Hunter
regions produced strong winds, large hail and heavy
rain on the 20th. Wind gusts reached 133 km/h at
High Range (Wanganderry). At least five light planes
and several buildings were destroyed at Camden
Airport, and reports of uprooted trees near The Oaks
and Cobbity.

Synoptic summary
The month started with ex-tropical cyclone Stan
moving across the southeast interior of Western
Australia, then tracking over the agricultural districts
of South Australia to reach western districts of
Victoria by the 2nd. By the 6th, a high pressure
system located over the southern Tasman Sea
extended a ridge along the coast of New South Wales
and southern Queensland. A band of middle and high
level cloud extended along a trough from the northern
Queensland coast to the Coral Sea and into a deep
low pressure system located in the northern Tasman
Sea.
By the middle of the second week of February, a low
pressure system located over southern parts of Cape
York Peninsula and a monsoon trough across the
tropical north of the country generated extensive
areas of cloud. Meanwhile, a high pressure ridge
located to the south of the Great Australian Bight
maintained mostly clear conditions across the
southern interior with low cloud associated with a
moist southeasterly flow across coastal South
Australia, Victoria and Tasmania.
On the 11th, a low pressure system located in the
Coral Sea deepened, developing into tropical cyclone

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

Tatiana on the 12th. Tatiana tracked south-southeast,


remaining well off the Queensland coast. Meanwhile
a weak cold front crossed southern coasts, ahead of a
ridge of high pressure that extended across the Bight.
On the 15th, another cold front and low tracked
eastwards over the Tasman Sea generating a vigorous
southwesterly air stream over Tasmania. The
southwesterly air stream moderated as the system
moved further into the Tasman Sea and a high
pressure ridge became established the Great
Australian Bight.
The last week of February saw a broad area of low
pressure trigger an extensive area of cloud that
extended from the inland areas of Western Australia
across southern South Australia. A cold front moving
across the Bight extended down to a low pressure
system over the Southern Ocean. The month finished
with high pressure tracking across the Bight and
bringing broadscale scale southerly flow to coastal
Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales, while low
pressure troughs extended across the tropics and extropical cyclone Winston was located in the southern
Coral Sea.

Temperatures
February 2016 was warmer than average for Australia,
ranking as the ninth-warmest February on record. The
national mean temperature was 0.92 C above
average and every State and Territory recorded above
average maximum and minimum temperatures. Parts
of northern Australia had their highest mean February
temperature on record. Above average mean
temperatures were recorded across the northern and
eastern halves of the country. The only areas with
below-average mean temperatures were the
southeast of Western Australia and along the
southern coast of South Australia.
The national mean minimum temperature was
0.41 C above average, while the mean maximum
temperature was 1.43 C above the historical
average.

Maximum temperatures
Maximum temperatures for February were the
highest on record in coastal parts of the Kimberley
extending across into the Northern Territory and in
isolated pockets of the eastern and western Top End.
Well above average maximum temperatures were
recorded in most of the northern part of Western
Australia, the northern Top End, northern and western
Queensland, across parts of northern New South
Wales and in northeastern Tasmania. Above average
maximum temperatures were recorded across the
northern half and most of eastern Australia and
southwest Western Australia. Below average
maximum temperatures were recorded in the
southeast of Western Australia and in an area along
the south coast of South Australia.

Decile rank of mean daily maximum


temperature in February 2016

The national mean maximum temperature was


1.43 C above the historical average and the eighthwarmest on record for February. Queensland
observed its sixth-warmest mean maximum February
on record with an anomaly of +2.03 C, and the
Northern Territory had its eight-warmest mean
maximum on record (+1.93 C). All States and
Territories recorded above average mean maximum
temperatures for February.
February began with maximum temperatures in the
western half of Australia well below average as extropical cyclone Stan moved through the interior of
Western Australia with large areas of the interior of
the State recording anomalies of 12 C below
average. Prior to the system moving into South
Australia the southern coastal parts of the State
experienced a very hot day of up to 12 C above
average.
From the 3rd, maximum temperatures were well
below average in western Queensland and the
southeast of the Northern Territory due a trough in
the far south and the eastern border regions. Over the
next few days, cooler-than-average conditions
prevailed over most of Australia. From the 6th to the
8th, the southern interior of Queensland was notably
cooler than average as a slow moving surface trough
produced heavy showers and thunderstorms.
Between the 7th and the 11th, the west and south
coasts of Western Australia experienced hot
conditions, with some temperatures at least 10 C
above the February average. The following day, a cool
change moved through this area and brought some
relief from the very hot conditions.
By mid-February, cool conditions persisted across the
southern parts of the country. In contrast, abnormal
heat developed over much of northern Australia
particularly interior parts during the second half of the
month; for more details see Special Climate

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

Statement 55 prolonged March heatwave affects


many parts of Australia.
On the 23rd, much of Victoria experienced
temperatures more than 12 C above average with
the heat extending across much of southeast
Australia. From the 24th, areas of above average
maxima were observed in northern Victoria, southern
New South Wales and eastern South Australia, with
the heat extending into eastern and central parts of
New South Wales the following day. A cool westerly
flow kept maximum temperatures well below average
in the southern half of western Australia, the exposed
western coast of South Australia, western Victoria
and Tasmania.
Over the last few days of February, hot conditions
persisted over the eastern interior and extended into
Queensland for the remainder of the month. Daily
maximum temperature records were broken in
Queensland's central west (see page 13). Hot
conditions also prevailed over the south west and
southern parts of Western Australia.

Minimum temperatures
Minimum temperatures for February were the highest
on record in an area around the northern border of
Western Australia and the Northern Territory, in the
southwest of the Northern Territory, parts of Cape
York Peninsula, and the north tropical coast of
Queensland. Very warm minimum temperatures were
observed in most of northern Western Australia
across to the Top End and western parts of the
Northern Territory, much of northern and western
Queensland, and in most of Tasmania. Above average
minimum temperatures were recorded in
northwestern Tasmania, across most of northern
Australia, including the Gascoyne coast in Western
Australia, western parts of the Northern Territory,
western Queensland, in a narrow band along the
eastern seaboard and in southern Victoria.

Anomalies of mean daily minimum

Decile rank of mean daily minimum


temperature in February 2016

Below average minimum temperatures were


recorded in parts of the central interior and southeast
of Western Australia, and in an area along the south
coast of South Australia. Remaining parts of the
continent recorded near-average minima.
The national mean minimum temperature was
0.41 C above the historical average for February.
Queensland had its equal sixth-warmest mean
minimum February on record with an anomaly of
+1.12 C and Tasmania had its sixth-warmest mean
minimum on record (+1.97 C). All States and
Territories recorded above average mean minimum
temperatures for February.
February began with minimum temperatures in the
western half of Australia well below average as extropical cyclone Stan moved through the interior of
Western Australia. Most notably, the southwest of
Western Australia recorded minimum temperatures
up to 10 C below the February average. With the
exception of Tasmania, southeastern South Australia
and western parts of Victoria, much of southeastern
Australia and southern Queensland observed cooler
than usual minimum temperatures. Over the next few
days, areas of cooler than normal minima expanded in
Western Australia and South Australia as ex-tropical
cyclone Stan tracked eastwards. Above average
minima were experienced across much of
Queensland, particularly over the southwest, and
throughout the central interior of the continent and
extending into Tasmania.
From the 3rd to the 5th, the minimum temperatures
were above average across much of eastern Australia
with particularly warm minimum temperatures
experienced in Tasmania. During the 5th, as extropical cyclone Stan continued to track eastwards,
much of Western Australia and the Pastoral districts
of South Australia experienced below average
minima. Cooler than normal minimum temperatures
were observed in large parts of New South Wales and

recorded across the southern parts of the country,


associated with the passage of a cold front.

Over the next few days, cooler-than-average


conditions prevailed over the southwest of Western
Australia and South Australia, and central parts of the
country as far north as the Gulf of Carpentaria. From
the 6th to the 8th, the southern interior of
Queensland observed notably cooler than average
minimum temperatures as a slow moving surface
trough produced heavy showers and thunderstorms.

From the 10th to the 19th much of Queensland, and a


large part of southern Australia, had minimum
temperatures that were well below average.
However, on the on the 16th a very warm night was
recorded along the west coast of Western Australia.

Between the 7th and 11th the area of cooler than


average minima conditions contracted in the west and
south coasts of Western Australia and from west of
the Esperance Coast district and these areas began to
experience above average minima. The 9th was
particularly cool around Eucla. Only a few areas of
cooler than average minima remained in the Northern
and Southern Interior of Western Australia and in the
coastal and adjacent inland parts near the border of
South Australia.
Over the period of the 12th to the 15th, a broad area
of below average minimum temperatures was

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

In the third week of February, most of the central


parts of the country had above average minimum
temperatures. Very warm minimum temperatures
were observed in South Australia, western New
South Wales and much of Victoria on the 23rd and
24th, where overnight temperatures exceeded 8 C
above average. Above average minima persisted
throughout central and southeastern Australia, until
the 25th.
The last few days in February saw an area of above
average minima observed in southwest Western
Australia, and across most of Queensland away from
the east coast. In contrast a well below average
minima were recorded in South Australia, the
southern parts of the Northern Territory, and in
western Victoria and western New South Wales.

Rainfall
For Australia as a whole, February rainfall was 41 %
below average. February rainfall was below average
across northern Australia, with some parts recording
their lowest February rainfall on record. Below
average rainfall was also recorded across much of
New South Wales, eastern Victoria, northern parts of
South Australia and an area along the west coast of
Western Australia, and pocket of central and
northeastern Tasmania.

Burdekin in Queensland on the 8th as a low pressure
system developed near the central Queensland coast
and tracked slowly north.

Decile rank of total rainfall in February 2016

On the 9th, the monsoon trough and a deepening


tropical low over the Coral Sea brought extensive
areas of shower and thunderstorm activity to the
Cape York Peninsula, Gulf Country, Top End and
Kimberley between the 11th and 16th. A tropical low
intensified into tropical cyclone Tatiana late on the
11th, and although the system was located well
offshore, moist onshore flow generated showers
along the exposed parts of the southeast coast of
Queensland. A vigorous southwesterly airstream
across western Tasmania produced moderate falls in
State's southwest between the 15th and 19th.
On the 19th, a surface trough extended from the
Northern Territory, through inland Queensland and
into New South Wales. The slow-moving system
produced moderate falls in the southeast coast, Wide
Bay and Burnett and Darling Downs districts in
Queensland, and in northeastern New South Wales.

Above average falls were recorded in southeast


Western Australia and along the south coast and parts
of northwest pastoral district of South Australia, as
well as parts of central and far western Queensland.
Remaining parts of the country received near-average
rainfall for February.
At the beginning of the month, ex-tropical cyclone
Stan tracked from the Pilbara, through the
southeastern interior of Western Australia, and into
the agricultural districts of South Australia. The
remnants of the system brought moderate falls to a
large strip from the northwest to southeast of
Western Australia, and to the southern part of South
Australia before the system decayed. An active

Monthly Weather Review - Australia - February 2016

A broad area of low pressure extended from the


inland areas of Western Australia and southern South
Australia, delivering moderate rainfall totals to central
and southeastern Western Australia, and along the
south coast and adjacent inland districts of South
Australia on the 24th. An upper-level trough over the
north tropical coast on the 24th, and a surface trough
located over the Coral Sea produced moderate to
heavy falls in parts of northern Queensland,
particularly between Cooktown and Innisfail. A broad
area of low pressure produced thunderstorms and
showers across the northern tropics from the 25th
until the end of the month. In the south, a cold front
tracked across the Bight, with a strong westerly flow
producing moderate falls in southeastern South
Australia, western Victoria, and western Tasmania on
the 25th and 26th. At the end of the month a surface
trough extended along the west coast of Western
Australia, producing light to moderate rain in western
parts of the State.
