Spring has started very below average in most of La Plata basin. The reason? the strathoperic warming in Antarctica, wich is weakening the polar vortex and pushing the cold air north.
The max today was only 11.3ºC here, even with some sun, and it felt really abnormally cold for the season due the high winds.
Meanwhile, Patagonia with some snow in the desert:
Light winds shifting N/NE 20-30km/h in the morning turning W 10-20km/h in the late afternoon shifting S 15-25km/h in the late evening.
2nd hottest September day ever at Perth Metro (and most likely Jandakot too ). Other notable maximums in the region were: Swanbourne 32.9C, Albany: 29.2C. York had diurnals of 30.1/2.1 so 28C of diurnals!! Collie had 29.5/2.1 so very impressive too
Meanwhile, September has been a fail so far here. Very below normal, with just 2 or 3 maxs above 20ºC to date. On the other side of the coin, in the the northern corner of the country (and south Brazil aswell) they had record breaking days for the month. So I wait for a change of this current awful pattern soon.
September is being a month with abrupt changes of temperature here. We had highs of 15ºC and 30ºC, lows of less than 5ºC and almost 20ºC. This next Monday can possibly start with a low of 3ºC, but then it will get hot.
Two weeks without a single drop of rain and counting here. These last days were absurdly dry, wich is quite rare for a humid subtropical place. Negative dewpoints were recorded with relative humidity falling to the teens during the evenings. This air is more proper of deserts and it doesn't feel comfortable, even if it helps with the no sweating. Look at the values: https://www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynr...min=0&ndays=30
Contrasting air masses between the north and the south of Argentina. Right now, at 2 pm local time, Ingeniero Juárez (Formosa) is reporting 41.7°C and Cerro Krund (Tierra del Fuego) is reporting -6.0°C, so there is a difference of 47.7°C between the hottest and the coldest measured spots of the country.
A late-spring chill in southeastern Australia is coming here with a burst of cold, wet and windy weather that will hit southeastern Australia during the second half of this week, with Melbourne forecast to have its coldest November day in 12 years.
Bushfires have been terrible in eastern NSW. Look at Sydney here. It's been smothered by smoke in the past week.
A pretty smoky end to 2019...
