The latest in Weather Matters with Karl Lijnders
Update: 2023-05-18
Description
In this episode, host Oli Le Lievre chats with Karl Lijnders and gets the latest updates on weather conditions across Australia and what the implications might be for farmers and crop production.
What’s discussed:
- Rainfall Patterns: Karl provides an overview of rainfall conditions across different regions. Who’s getting the rain and who needs it.
- El Nino: The Indian Ocean Dipole has shifted, resulting in cooler sea surface temperatures and less moisture, while the Pacific Ocean is cooling down on the eastern side of Australia. (Again, Karl predicts a drier and hotter second half of the year)
- Tasmania and Fire Dangers: Seeing significant dry bias in northern and eastern Tasmania as summer approaches with concerns about potential fire dangers in southeastern Australia (including Tassie), due to the dry conditions.
- Snow Season Predictions: How the recent snowfall at Thredbo does not determine the entire season (in fact the snow season may be lean due to the influence of El Nino and expectations of a warmer and drier year.)
