| The Bureau of Meteorology says that Australia will have a warm and dry spring. |
After a string of balmy winter weeks, the chance of higher spring daytime temperatures are greater in the north and south-east of the country, the Bureau of Meteorology’s climate outlook for September to November said on Thursday.
Rainfall was likely to be below average for western parts of Australia during spring and September was likely to be drier in south-west Australia. However, parts of southern Queensland would see a wetter September.
The bureau said that higher sea surface temperatures around the Australian coastline were most likely to be affecting this outlook.
Robert Pipunic, a senior hydrologist at the BoM, said cooler waters off the coast of Western Australia have left little moisture in the air to drive any rainfall, while warmer seas off the east coast would push temperatures higher.
