This current run of hot weather has added up to Sydney’s longest heatwave since 1910. A heatwave is not defined by season but consistent temperatures above the average.
This will be the warmest May on record for many locations in eastern and southern Australia helping to make it one of the warmest Autumns on record.
This is on the back of 2013 being the hottest year on record for Australia with 7 of the top ten years now occurring since 1998. To top it off we are expecting a warmer and drier than average remainder of 2014.
