Yup we are fucked. BoM data out this weekend and there is a lot of crickets from the usual media suspects on it.
Good luck everyone.

Ugh, bet this means my town will get flooded again too due to heavy rain. We’ve already had 3 severe flooding events in the past 3 or so years 🙁

After the floods etc, and businesses that supposedly “care for the environment” now want to waste fossil fuel and add extra pollution through the return to the office changes.
I don’t see any actual changes happening anytime soon sadly.

I work outdoors 40-50 hours a week and live in a share house without any form of cooling beyond a Kmart fan that oscillates between my partner and I. I’m genuinely concerned haha fck
Maybe time to lash out and grab a second fan!

Thank fuck for energy credits.

A similar warning went out last year too (with an added catastrophic fire warning). I think the northern states copped it but parts of Victoria had a few hot days but nothing like a year or two before.
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

I wonder if this is caused by that thing we have a literal century of evidence to prove, nah it’s probably Jewish space lasers, that makes way more sense.

Does this mean Melbourne will actually get a summer?

I’m probably missing something obvious, but I actually don’t understand what this chart is showing.
Exceeding the median minimum temperature.

They went on about how hot last summer was going to be in Melbourne but it was one of the most mild summers I remember.
Having said that, super happy we have AC’s in each bedroom

Okay, so this is a *perfect* example of why the people who claim the BoM are unreliable, because last summer wasn’t hot and dry like they’d predicted, are just plain wrong.
This map gives an 80% likelihood of high overnight temperatures. Similarly last year, there was an 80% chance of the summer being hot and dry. That means there is a 20% (or, 1 in 5) chance that their prediction won’t be correct at all.
Also, the BoM are making predictions for entire states, areas that in the case of large states like WA and QLD, are many times larger than the average size of an entire country… and have wildly different weather occurring in different parts of the state.
The prediction will most likely be correct for most of each state, but there’s also a pretty good chance that there will be some part of some states where this just isn’t true… and you just *know* that some dumbshit will be pointing excitedly at that as proof that the BoM is wrong and should be ignored.

Have a look at the BOM archive. They predicted the same percentage last year and most of the years before.
Clearly last (23/24) summer wasn’t as bad as their long range forecast suggested. These predictions best taken with several grains of salt and critical thinking.

I moved out of Brisbane in January. A minor coincidental luck, I guess.
But while I could enjoy 40°C at home, I almost got heatstroke at 29°C a while ago in the country I moved to.
