Back to EpisodesSydney's Unprecedented Heatwave: A Humid March
Description
Sydneys March is sweltering, with record-breaking temperatures and unusually high humidity. The average high is three degrees above normal, and lows are also above average. The dew point temperature, a key measure, is four degrees above the long-term average and two degrees higher than Brisbanes typical levels. Northerly winds are pulling tropical moisture southward, and the Tasman Sea is warmer than usual, evaporating more vapor into the air. A southerly change brings some relief, but its temporary. Sydneys climate is shifting subtropical, with projections showing it resembling northern New South Wales by 2050 and southeast Queensland by 2090. Dew points have already risen significantly since 1970, signaling more humid days ahead.
