National Daily Weather Summary

Weather, Climate and Site News

The information on this page fills gradually as it becomes available.

For weather news as it breaks, the sites on the Weather and Climate Media Reports page are recommended.

Provisional records set or equalled today

These records are initially from real time data that has not been verified. AWN checks the data for obvious errors over the following few days, marks items "C" for "Checked" in the comments column and adds notes about possible errors. This Daily Weather Summary is updated 4 to 5 months after real time with additional late-arriving data and any validation made by the BoM Quality Management System. Go here for further information on this records section, what the quality code letters in the comments column mean, and how the BoM QMS works. These provisional records are based on data received as at 1414 EST on 16/11/2019.
