BA looks pretty sweltering right now -- 32 C with 27 C dew point. Next few days look lovely though (going by Google's forecast).
By contrast, we're sitting on 20 C with overcast skies and cold wind on this Xmas afternoon.
The last week has been crap as well and the next looks even worse with heavy rain and strong, cold southerlies tomorrow.
Summer ended on the 17th as far as I'm concerned.
Premature as usual I predict. I note that according to Climate Explorer maps at least, your sun to 23rd is at least 25% above normal, temps a little up and rainfall a little down.
Models are starting to pick a massive heat event for southern/southeast Australia just after New Years. GFS is predicting 850hpa temps to reach 30C over northern Victoria around the 5th, which would see temps anywhere around 45-48°C assuming clear skies.
Other models showing the 5840 line extending down past Adelaide and even higher thickness further north, somewhere could well see 50C. Really really hope it doesnt downgrade
10 day weather forecast from The Weather Channel for northwestern Victoria starting to line up with the models:
