The Monthly Weather Review - Australia is produced by the Bureau of Meteorology to provide a concise but informativeoverview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Australia for the month.To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Althoughevery effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until completequality control procedures have been carried out. Any major discrepancies will be noted in later issues.We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to its readers' needs. If you have any comments orsuggestions, please contact us:

Units of measurementExcept where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometresper hour (km/h).

Observation times and periodsEach station in Australia makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset. In this publication, the followingconventions are used for assigning dates to the observations made:Maximum temperatures are for the 24 hours from 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the afternoon of thatday.Minimum temperatures are for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the early morning of thatday.Mean temperatures are the average of the daily maximum and daily minimum temperatures.Daily rainfall is for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. This means a significant fraction of the rain may haveoccurred on the previous calendar day.Monthly rainfall is for the period from 9 am on the last day of the previous month to 9 am on the last day of this month.Maximum daily wind gusts are in the 24 hours from midnight to midnight.

Climatological valuesThe climatological averages shown in the text and tables are generally long-term means based on observations from the years1961–1990. They are not shown for sites with less than 25 years of record in that time, as they cannot then be calculatedreliably. Climatological extremes are generally taken from all available years of record; the number of years can vary markedlyfrom site to site.

RecordsThe tables of records are not exhaustive, as they only show sites with at least 30 years of record. This may exclude locationswhere a new site has been established; this means even some major cities and towns may not be listed.

MapsThe temperature and rainfall maps are intended to give an overview of the country. There could be discrepancies between thevalues shown on these maps and those at individual locations, as a result of the way the maps are generated. A wide range ofmaps of rainfall, temperature and other variables, covering the whole country and smaller regions can be found atwww.bom.gov.au/climate/maps.

Accessing dataTables of daily values for selected sites are included toward the back of the Monthly Weather Review. Data from many moresites and for other times are available from www.bom.gov.au/climate/data/.

Overview

• second-warmest October mean temperature forAustralia

• warmest October on record for mean maximumtemperature

• Australia's earliest recorded day over 45 °C on the9th

• unseasonably hot days at the end of the month• relatively cool nights in the tropical north• rainfall well below average in most areas

October was a very warm, and generally dry, monthfor Australia. Maximum temperatures during Octoberwere warmer than average across nearly the entirecontinent and highest on record across parts of thesouthern mainland. All States and the NorthernTerritory, except Tasmania, observed monthly maximain the top ten records for October. Minimumtemperatures were cooler than average for large partsof northern Australia, especially in the Top End, andwarmer than average elsewhere; with a large area of

southeastern Western Australia recording its warmestOctober monthly minima. The national maximumtemperature anomaly of +2.76 °C was the highest onrecord for October (previous record +2.63 °C in 1988),while minimum temperatures were the eighth-warmest on record at 1.06 °C warmer than average.This yielded Australia's second-warmest October onrecord in terms of mean temperatures, with ananomaly of +1.91 °C.

Rainfall was below average over all mainland Statesexcept Western Australia and also below average forparts of Tasmania. Nationally, it was the seventh-driest October on record, with the Australia area-averaged rainfall 57% below mean. It was especiallydry across South Australia, which recorded its driestOctober on record, while large areas of centralAustralia and the southeastern mainland recordedOctober rainfall in the lowest 10% of records.

Significant weather

East Coast Low affects south coast of NewSouth Wales

On the 14th and 15th, an East Coast Low producedstrong winds, heavy rain and high seas along thesouthern half of the coast of New South Wales. Largeareas of the coast recorded wind gusts greater than100 km/h and daily rainfall totals greater than100 mm, as well as wave heights greater than 6 m.Daily rainfall totals broke October records in parts ofsouthern Sydney, with Canterbury Racecourserecording 91.4 mm over three hours between 9 pmand midnight on the 14th. The heavy rain and strongwinds resulted in 2265 Requests for Assistance to theSES, with flash flooding resulting in a passenger trainbecoming trapped by floodwaters at Bexley, as wellas 85 flood rescues.

Several periods of severe thunderstorms

On the afternoon and evening of the 13th, severethunderstorms formed near Dalby and areas north ofToowoomba. A maximum wind gust of 104 km/h wasrecorded at Dalby in Queensland due to the passageof these thunderstorms. Widespread thunderstormactivity also formed over the eastern half of NewSouth Wales, with reports of small hail (1 cm to 2 cmin diameter) in Dubbo, Colyton (western Sydney), andCopmanhurst (near Grafton) and wind gusts of up to91 km/h at Newcastle.

On the evening of the 14th, severe thunderstormscaused damaging winds and heavy rainfall around theSydney area in New South Wales. Wattamollarecorded a wind gust of 161 km/h, Kurnel with115 km/h and Sydney Airport with 95 km/h. San Soucireceived 59 mm of rainfall in one hour (between 8 pmand 9 pm), and Strathfield Golf Club recorded 50 mmin one hour between 9 pm and 10 pm. Wind gustswere greater than 100 km/h at Kiama, Bellambi,Ulladulla, Sydney Airport, Montague Island and Kurnell(115 km/h) on the 14th, at Norah Head on the 15th. Awaterspout was observed off Caloundra on theafternoon of 14 October.

In Western Australia, severe thunderstorms formednear New Norcia on the 18th and tracked to thesouthwest and over the Perth Metropolitan area in theafternoon, producing heavy rainfall and large amountsof small hail. Severe thunderstorms re-developedagain on the 19th with several locations in easternparts of the South West Land Division recordingheavy rainfall and severe wind gusts.

High-based thundery showers developed over EyrePeninsula in South Australia along a trough on theafternoon of 21st. There was very little associated rain

or lightning, but a wind gust of 106 km/h occurred atWudinna.

Widespread severe thunderstorms occurred along asurface trough through southern and central parts ofthe South West Land Division in Western Australia onthe 22nd. Hail with a diameter larger than 3 cm wasreported, and flash flooding occurred in the proximityof Boyup Brook in the South West district.

A trough of low pressure moved across SouthAustralia during the 26th. Thunderstorms occurred ina broad northwest to southeast orientated band,aligned with the trough, from the northwest to theLower South East district. Thunderstorms affectedthe Adelaide area in the evening, and although notsevere, the storms were very electrically active,resulting in around 30 000 power outages. Therewere also reports of small hailstones from thesouthern suburbs and Adelaide Hills.

Severe thunderstorms formed to the northwest ofNoosa Heads in southeast Queensland on theafternoon of the 28th. Hail with a diameter ofbetween 3 cm and 4 cm was observed at BoreenPoint (north of Noosa) at around 3 pm.

On the 31st, severe thunderstorms affectedsoutheast Queensland in the areas east of Dalby fromRainbow Beach to Stanthorpe. Allora in the DarlingDowns district reported hail with a diameter ofapproximately 2 cm to 3 cm.

In South Australia, a band of significant thunderstormsdeveloped along a low pressure trough and affectedthe North West Pastoral and western parts of theNorth East Pastoral district during the afternoon andevening on 31st. Several severe thunderstormsoccurred, including one at Coober Pedy, where thewind ripped the roof off the Opal Inn and damagedseveral other buildings in the town. A wind gust to135 km/h was recorded at the nearby airport. Othersevere wind gusts from these thunderstormsincluded 124 km/h at Woomera, 98 km/h at Marree,93 km/h at Ernabella and 91 km/h at Roxby Downs.

Strong winds affect Tasmania

Strong and gusty winds occurred over Tasmania onthe 6th and 7th, as a cold front crossed the State withan intense low close by. Despite gusts over 100 km/hat several sites – and up to 148 km/h at Cape Grim –the State Emergency Service (SES) reported very fewcallouts.

A cold front crossing Tasmania early on the 28th, withan associated intense low to the south, broughtstrong, gusty and damaging winds to many parts of

the State. The SES received a number of callouts,many due to damaged roofs. The roof of a Hobartinner city hotel was damaged, leading to temporaryclosure of a main road through the city in theafternoon. Power outages were reported in manyareas. Gusts in excess of 100 km/h were registered atmany sites, with the strongest 148 km/h atMaatsuyker Island and Mount Read. Cold air in thewake of the front brought some snow to elevatedareas.

Wind damage in New South Wales

Strong winds also impacted western Sydney and theCentral Tablelands in New South Wales on the 27th,reaching 91 km/h at Sydney Olympic park and120 km/h at Mt Boyce. The SES received more than

100 requests for assistance, with downed treescausing damage to houses and cars.

Large bushfires in Queensland

A large bushfire which started at around 3 pm on 28October was located in the vicinity of Eukey Road,Ballandean (near Stanthorpe) in Queensland. Thelarge, fast moving fire travelled in a north-easterlydirection and impacted the areas from Doctors CreekRoad to Parrish Lane. The fire was contained by the 2November.

A bushfire which broke out near Mount Jockey Road,Ravensbourne (northeast of Toowoomba) inQueensland at around 5.30 pm on Monday, 27October due to a lightning strike. It continued to burnfor several days, before being contained.

Synoptic summary

October 2014 began with a large, persistent highpressure system in the Great Australian Bight movingacross southern Australia and into Tasman Sea,followed by a surface trough that tracked from thewest coast of Western Australia to southern Victoria.A cold front crossed Tasmania on the 4th, whileacross northern Australia a broad surface troughextended from central Western Australia, through theNorthern Territory and inland Queensland.

The next cold front moved through southwesternAustralia on the 5th, interacted with a surface troughwest of the Nullarbor then moved throughsoutheastern Australia by the 7th. A surface troughover inland Queensland and another through centralAustralia. A cold front tracked west from the Bightreaching New South Wales by the 13th. A complexlow ahead of the cold front intensified off the NewSouth Wales coast around the 14th. Areas of lowpressure developed along the west coast of WesternAustralia, and across northern Australia. On the 16th,

another cold front crossed southeastern Australia,while the low in southwest Western Australia andassociated surface troughs extending into theNorthern Territory lingered for several days.

From the 20th to the 22nd, a high pressure systemmoved slowly across the Southern Ocean, followedby a surface trough through the southern interior andassociated low pressure system in the southeasternStates. A second high pressure cell formed in theBight on the 23rd. A broad area of low pressuredominated much of Australia, with a low in SouthAustralia and another in northeastern New SouthWale, in the wake of the high pressure systemmoving off the east coast.

A trough across Western Australia and South Australiamoved through the interior of the continent intoQueensland by the 27th, before a cold front passedthe southwest of Western Australia. There weresurface troughs over a large area of the country forthe remainder of the month.

Temperatures

The Australian area-averaged mean temperatureduring October 2014 was 1.91 °C above the historicalaverage; Australia’s second-warmest October in 105years of comparable observations and the warmestsince 1988. Above-average mean temperatures wererecorded across all States and Territories, with meantemperature anomalies highest on record for SouthAustralia (+2.81 °C), New South Wales (+2.58 °C) andWestern Australia (+2.45 °C), and second-highest inVictoria (+2.81 °C).

Maximum temperatures

The Australian area-averaged mean maximumtemperature was +2.76 °C above average duringOctober, resulting in the warmest October maximumtemperature anomaly on record, and the fourth-largestmaximum temperature anomaly for any month in 105years. Maximum temperatures were well aboveaverage across all States and Territories, withanomalies ranging from +0.70 °C in Tasmania to+4.14 °C in South Australia. October mean maximumtemperatures were highest on record for New SouthWales, South Australia and Western Australia, andsecond-highest in Victoria and the Northern Territory.

Decile rank of mean daily maximumtemperature in October 2014

The warmest periods for much of Australia occurredbetween 8th and 12th, between the 20th and 22nd,and between the 23rd and 30th. Each of theseperiods saw new highest daily maximumtemperatures at stations across the country. Notably,large areas of Australia were affected by persistentlyabove-average temperatures which resulted in recordwarmest October monthly temperatures, earliestwarm days and runs of warm days. The heat throughthe month culminated in the warmest October day onrecord for Australia as a whole, when the nationalmaximum daily temperature peaked at 36.39 °C in the25th.

The earliest day over 45 °C that Australia hasrecorded occurred on the 9th when Bidyadanga, inthe west Kimberley of Western Australia, observed arecord high of 45.2 °C, exceeding its previous highestfor this site of 43.8 °C observed on 14 October 2007.Prior to this, 45 °C had not been reported anywhere inAustralia before October 21. On the same day,Mandora in WA reached 44.5 °C, which was also theearliest in the season that a temperature so high hadbeen observed.

A hot air-mass ahead of a surface trough directed hotnorthwesterly winds across the Northern Territory,South Australia, New South Wales and Queenslandon the 25th.

New South Wales experienced hot conditions fromthe 25th to the 27th, with numerous stations settingnew high daily maximum temperature records. On the25th, several stations in the Riverina district, andplaces in the central west broke daily maximumtemperatures when they reached or exceeded 39 °C.The following day, northeastern districts brokenumerous daily temperature records as the hot airmass moved to the east.

On the 27th, widespread heat affected northern NewSouth Wales and across the Queensland border in theMaranoa and Warrego, Darling Downs and SoutheastCoast districts. The most extreme temperatures wererecorded through inland southern Queensland andnorthern New South Wales away from the coast.

Minimum temperatures

The October area-averaged minimum temperature inAustralia was 1.06 °C above normal, resulting in theeight-warmest nights on record. All States observednights warmer than average, with Western Australiaexperiencing its warmest October nights on record.Although most parts of the country were muchwarmer than normal, nights were relatively cool

The month began with relatively mild conditionsacross the continent with nights mostly near averageup until the 14th. A cool period for large parts ofSouth Australia, the Northern Territory and parts ofQueensland occurred between the 15th and 18thwhile southwest Western Australia saw a period ofvery warm nights.

Minimum temperatures became very warm from 20thfor parts of South Australia, with record high warmnights then being observed across southern parts ofQueensland and northwest New South Wales by the27th. High daily minimum temperatures were alsorecorded in a number of stations along the southeastQueensland coast between Cape Moreton andCoolangatta on the 28th. The end of the month sawvery warm nights continue across Western Australia,with highest on record for the northern interior partsof the State being observed on the 31st.

Rainfall

Area-averaged rainfall was below average in all Statesand Territories except for Western Australia, and wasthe seventh-driest October on record for the nation.South Australia averaged just 2.1 mm for the month,89% below normal and an equal record dry October.The Northern Territory ranked the fourth-driest andQueensland the ninth-driest on record, with largeareas of central Australia and the southeasternmainland recording rainfall in the lowest 10% ofrecords.

Total rainfall in October 2014

Decile rank of total rainfall in October 2014

Rainfall was below-average through the easternmainland States, the Northern Territory, SouthAustralia, areas of Western Australia along theeastern border and the cost of the South West LandDivision, and also in parts of eastern andnorthwestern Tasmania. Over 32% of Australia was indecile 1, with small areas recording the lowest on-record October rainfall.

There were areas of above average rainfall for largeparts of Western Australia away from the west coastand eastern border. Some areas of the WesternAustralia interior recorded more than two times theaverage October monthly rainfall. Nearly 19% ofWestern Australia recorded rainfall totals in thehighest 10% of records for October.

A cold front crossed southeastern Australia at thebeginning of the month, generating some moderate

totals to western Tasmania and parts of southernVictoria on the 1st.

A slow-moving surface trough located throughQueensland’s interior and generated somethunderstorm activity in southern Queensland on the3rd and 4th.

In the west, a cold front crossing Western Australiaon the 5th produced rainfall in the South West LandDivision. A moist southwesterly airflow produced low-level cloud in the south and west coasts of WesternAustralia. A strong cold front that tracked throughSouth Australia, Victoria and Tasmania generatedmoderate rainfall totals in the elevated parts of theVictorian Alps, and the northwest and west coast ofTasmania.

On the 10th, a deep surface trough located acrossQueensland's central and southern interior triggeredthunderstorms and showers near and ahead of thetrough. A low pressure system was located overwestern Queensland along the trough, and generatedmoderate rainfall totals across Southern Queenslandon the 11th and 12th.

The same surface trough stretched from northwestQueensland down to the Victorian – New SouthWales border by the 12th, with centres of lowpressure system forming over western New SouthWales. Moderate rainfall totals were recorded in partsof central and southeastern New South Wales on the13th.

The low pressure system continued to intensify nearthe New South Wales coast near Sydney and theHunter district, and moved slowly north with theassociated trough. Some areas of heavy rainfallextended along the coast near the low, with moderatefalls recorded in East Gippsland, Victoria. Severalstations recorded their highest daily rainfall on recordon the 14th and 15th. Bendalong in New South Walesrecorded the highest daily rainfall for October, with204.6 mm on the 15th.

A cold front tracked across southeastern Australiashortly after, crossing Tasmania, southeastern SouthAustralia, Victoria and southern New South Wales.Moderate falls were recorded along the west coast ofTasmania, and light falls on the 17th throughoutTasmania, eastern Victoria and southeastern NewSouth Wales.

Between the 18th and 20th, moderate to heavy fallswere recorded through southern and central WesternAustralia as a broad low pressure trough over centralparts of Western Australia, in combination with amiddle level disturbance, produced severe

thunderstorms and heavy rainfall over the Goldfieldsand the eastern parts of the South West Land Divisionwith heavier falls reported on parts on the southcoast. Some record high daily rainfall was recorded inWestern Australia. A cold front crossed southernVictoria and Tasmania with moderate rainfall totalsrecorded in Tasmania’s southwest and northeast onthe 20th.

A low pressure system located over southwestWestern Australia produced light to moderate rainfallin the South West Land Division on the 23rd, while inthe east, a low pressure system located just north ofVictoria brought light to moderate rainfall to east coastof New South Wales.

A weak cold front crossed Tasmania early on the 25thwith light to moderate rain falling over most ofTasmania. A lingering surface trough over Bass Straitand a broad trough of low pressure across southernand western New South Wales resulted in moderatetotals through northern Tasmania and in parts ofsouthern Victoria, and light rainfall through much ofVictoria and parts of southeast South Australia. Adeepening area of low pressure along the northwestcoast of Western Australia brought isolated falls toparts of the Kimberley.

A series of cold fronts crossed Victoria and Tasmanianear the end of the month, with some moderate toheavy rain falling along the west coast of Tasmania,and parts of southern Victoria.
