Bureau forecasts dry, warm winter for Australia

The Bureau of Meteorology forecasts below-average rainfall for much of southern, central and eastern Australia during winter (June to August), with warmer than average daytime temperatures expected across most of the country despite typical cold fronts and snow events. Western Australia is currently experiencing an unusually deep low-pressure system described as a once-in-five-year storm, with wind gusts reaching 110 kilometres per hour and rainfall up to 50 millimetres, with severe weather conditions expected to continue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
