A number of little used pages on the site will be discontinued after 31 August as the increased costs of subcribing to the BoM data can no longer be justified. They relate to realtime weather observations, and links will be provided to alternative sources.

Weather, climate
and site news

The reports here summarise weather events and climate news, including a round-up of their media coverage. They are archived in the relevant day's Daily Weather Summary to help make it a more complete record of the day's events. Timeliness of the reports is entirely at the mercy of my available time so, for the most up-to-date information, make good use of my media links here.
