East coast low brings heavy rain and strong winds, cyclone looms for the Pilbara

A low off the NSW coast is close enough to shore to bring heavy rain and strong winds to those just to its southwest on Friday, gradually easing as it drifts out to sea on the weekend. Meanwhile, our first cyclone close to Australia may develop off the Pilbara coast.

We’re heading into a stormy weekend through much of the eastern states - as warm to hot conditions linger and humidity spreads into the southeast.

We’re taking a break from the rain over the Christmas week, before it ramps up again in the new year.

Much of southeastern Australia is taking a break from heavy rain, but that comes with a surge of heat. Gusty winds increase the fire danger early next week - and the week of Christmas may also bring extreme conditions.

Australia’s significant rain continues but the pattern clears it from the southeast this weekend

To make it rain you need moisture and instability, and we have an impressive moisture source that should continue for the rest of the year. The instability is changing though, moving to a new area, set to give the southeast a break from the rain next week.

Humid air and lingering troughs lead to rain with no end in sight

Rain continues across a large part of the country impacting harvest planning and creating problems with high humidity.

Large rain system turning the southeast from hot to wet

Over the course of the next week we have the potential for widespread soaking rain over much of southeastern Australia, fuelled by rain crossing the north and interior.

The rain outlook for summer favours both the west and east

There is the potential for big rainfalls in both the west and east over the next week, which will be quite a change from what southwest WA has been experiencing lately. In the longer term, it is these areas that are most likely to see above average rain across the summer period too.

Rain finally fell over the dry southeast, with more on the way

Parts of southwest Victoria and southeast SA finally picked up some decent rain, and the rain bearing weather systems are lining up to deliver more.

Handy rain is heading towards the dry southeast

‘Surf’s up’ in the Pacific Ocean this week, but if you’re looking for a wave in the west there isn’t much happening. The wave pattern in the Pacific indicates that we are still heading towards a higher rain phase in the months ahead, while the Indian Ocean has failed to deliver. However, in the next week, there is the potential for a bit of rain in the southeast.
