"After this spring’s heat, humidity, rain and storms across Australia, you may
be wondering what summer has in store.

The Bureau of Meteorology’s long-range summer forecast, released today, gives
some indication of how the coming months are likely to unfold. Notwithstanding
the challenges of making these forecasts, seasonal prediction can be very
valuable for climate-sensitive industries such as agriculture, as well as being
of great public interest.

The latest outlook from the bureau suggests we’re in for more of the unsettled
weather we’ve been experiencing during spring. On average, hotter night-time
temperatures and higher rainfall are expected over summer.

Meanwhile, this summer’s seasonal bushfire outlook shows an increased risk of
fire across large parts of Australia, such as southeastern South Australia and
western Victoria, central Australia around Alice Springs, and southern
stretches of Western Australia."
