Parts of Central Australia are experiencing their driest period on record, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
Many parts of the southern Northern Territory have not had any rain since February. |
It was a wet Christmas and a very wet New Year for many properties throughout the district, with up to 100 millimetres falling in some areas.
But since then, it has been quite a different story.
Greg Browning, regional climate services manager for the Bureau of Metrology, said after the rainy summer, the tap basically turned off.
"Since February, pretty much all the southern third of the Territory has received single figure rainfall totals, but they did start the year quite well," he said.
