Over the next week and a half we’re likely to be stuck in a persistent pattern where the rain falls over the west and far north of the nation, and the rest miss out. That’s according to every one of the different weather models that make up the guidance for what is most likely to occur day by day, hour by hour at your specific location.

But an alternative forecast from the BOM tells a very different story, where increased rain is shown crossing the interior of the country and spreading down into the southeast across NSW.

Out of season rain is likely to spread through Western Australia’s wheatbelt beginning this weekend. Storms increase next week over eastern Australia, and may become significant widespread rain for northeast NSW and southeast Queensland.
The trough responsible for damaging storms is now likely to stall over a large part of the east. Expect day after day of thunderstorms brewing around the trough line.
Seasonal forecasts — like suggestions a La Niña is on the way — are not designed for major business decisions. But it is good to be aware of what is driving weather. 
Tropical Cyclone Kirrily is likely to form this week off the Queensland coast and cross the coast on Thursday around the Townsville area.
Once the rain clears the southeast, a period of settled weather follows. The monsoon has arrived in the north, and will continue to encourage a lot of wet weather there.
As Cyclone Jasper makes landfall north of Cairns (spreading rain across far northern Australia), there are troughs bringing showers and heavy storms to the eastern states.
Tropical Cyclone Jasper is likely to be the first cyclone to cross the Australian coast with Queensland’s eastern coastline in its path.
A cut off low is tracking across southeastern Australia, bringing widespread rain and locally heavy thunderstorms to its south and east.
A new cut-off low across the southeast will bring rain to everyone in their path including SE South Australia, southern NSW, much of Victoria and northeast Tasmania.
