Monthly Weather Review

New South Wales

February 2013

The Monthly Weather Review - New South Wales is produced twelve times each year by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's NewSouth Wales Climate Services Centre.

It is intended to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in New SouthWales for the month.

To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although everyeffort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality controlprocedures have been carried out. Major discrepancies will be noted in later issues.

We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to the needs of its readers. If you have any comments orsuggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us:

Units of measurementExcept where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour(km/h).

Observation times and periodsEach station in New South Wales makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over thepast 24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset. In this publication, the followingconventions are used for assigning dates to the observations made:

Maximum temperatures are for the 24 hours from 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the afternoon of that day.

Minimum temperatures are for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the early morning of that day.

Mean temperatures are the average of the daily maximum and daily minimum temperatures.

Daily rainfall is for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. This means a significant fraction of the rain may have occurred onthe previous calendar day.

Monthly rainfall is for the period from 9 am on the last day of the previous month to 9 am on the last day of this month.

Maximum daily wind gusts are in the 24 hours from midnight to midnight.

Climatological valuesThe climatological averages shown in the text and tables are generally long-term means based on observations from all availableyears of record, which vary widely from site to site. They are not shown for sites with less than 20 years of record, as they cannotthen be calculated reliably. Climatological extremes are generally taken from available observations from all available years of record.The number of years can vary substantially from site to site.

Significant weatherEast Coast LowAn East Coast Low developed off the southeastQueensland coast on the 21st, producing heavy rainin coastal NSW between the 22nd and 24th. Dailytotals associated with this event reached 415 mm atYarras, with widespread flash flooding in coastalNSW. This rain fell on already wet catchmentsfollowing heavy rain in late January, and wasassociated with minor to major flooding across theNorthern Rivers, Mid North Coast and Hunterregions.

More than 20,000 people were evacuated during thisevent in northeast NSW, including from Kempseyand parts of Taree, with more than 25,000 peopleisolated, 5500 Requests for Assistance, and 84 floodrescues. The floods caused major road closures anddelays, including multiple closures of the PacificHighway and coastal train lines, with approximately37,000 residents without power at the peak of theevent.

The East Coast Low also produced strong winds andheavy surf, with wind gusts on the 22nd reaching126 km/h at Byron Bay and 106 km/h at Evans Head.Gusts also exceeded 90 km/h at Ballina, CoffsHarbour, Yamba and Murrurrundi Gap, with strongwinds causing roof damage in Ballina. Waves greaterthan 12 m were reported offshore of Byron Bay andCoffs Harbour.

Wind gusts also reached 135 km/h slightly aftermidnight on the 24th at Sydney Harbour, whileminor flooding was also reported in theHawkesbury-Nepean as Warragamba Dam spilled onthe 24th. Several tornadoes also caused damage inthe Kiama region overnight, the largest reaching EF2,with twelve homes destroyed and more than 75damaged. Strong winds also damaged more than 70properties in Narellan, while roof damage alsocaused asbestos contamination in parts of Malabarand Kiama, resulting in temporary evacuations.

Severe thunderstorms1st - Widespread thunderstorm activity in easternNSW, with wind gusts of up to 93 km/h at Armidaleand 102 km/h at Murrurundi Gap. Thirty-minuterainfall totals reached 38.6 mm at Dungog and53 mm at Wyong River. Small hail was reported nearPicton and Camden, with 2 cm hail at Orange and4 cm hail at Mt Victoria.

9th−11th - Widespread thunderstorm activity ineastern and central NSW.

12th - Thunderstorms produced up to 40 mm in 30minutes at Boonanghi and 35.5 mm in Wittitrin.

17th - Waterspout reported near Cabarita Beach onthe Queensland border.

19th - Waterspouts reported off Bondi and Curl Curlin Sydney.

24th - Thunderstorms on the south coast produced35 mm in 30 minutes at Moruya and wind gusts of upto 96 km/h at Montague Island.

Synoptic summaryFebruary was dominated by the progression of highpressure systems to the south of Australia, withpersistent easterly winds in coastal NSW bringingabove average rainfall and cloudiness during themonth.

The month began with a surface trough in centralNSW, which triggered thunderstorms and rainfall inthe east of the state, while southerly winds causedcool conditions across most of the state. Conditionscleared as a high pressure system crossed southernNSW from the 3rd, with a stationary surface troughdeveloping in western NSW from the 7th. Thiscaused several days of warm northerly winds acrossmuch of the state but little rainfall, althoughthunderstorm activity in central NSW producedlocalised heavy rain between the 9th and 11th.

While the surface trough lingered in central NSWuntil the 13th, the prevailing winds began to shifteasterly from the 11th as a high pressure systemcrossed Tasmania, causing milder temperatures andpersistent rain along the north coast of NSW. Thispattern persisted until the 19th as a stationary highpressure system lingered in the Tasman Sea,although thunderstorm activity produced rain inparts of western NSW on the 13th and 14th.

From the 19th a low pressure system began todevelop in a surface trough off the south Queenslandcoast, before intensifying on the 22nd. This EastCoast Low produced heavy rainfall, strong winds andheavy surf in northeast NSW to 9 am on the 23rd,with impacts extending across much of coastal NSWas it decayed and moved southwest over the 23d and24th.

By the 25th easterly windflow again producedisolated showers on the north NSW coast with dryconditions elsewhere, as a stationary surface troughin western NSW failed to produce rain. Thisconnected with a cold front on the 28th andproduced widespread rain and cold weather acrosssouthern and western NSW.

RainfallNSW recorded a statewide average rainfall of64.76 mm during February, above the historicalaverage of 50.65 mm. This was the wettest monthfor NSW since March 2012 but the driest Februarysince 2007, following heavy summer rainfall in recentyears.

Rainfall was generally above average along thecoastal strip where rainfall was persistentthroughout the month, including only five dry days atLismore, the fewest since 1999. Fifteen coastalstations recorded their wettest February on recordand a further 21 recorded their wettest Februarysince at least 1991, including the wettest Februarysince 1957 at Comboyne.

Much of this rain fell as an East Coast Low producedheavy coastal rain between the 22nd and 24th, with3-day totals exceeding 100 mm across most of theeast coast and reaching 517.8 mm at Leigh. Dailytotals were as high as 415 mm at Yarras on the 23rdand 183 mm at Wattamolla on the 24th, with dailyrainfall records broken at 27 stations over thesedays.

Thunderstorm activity also produced rain innortheast NSW on the 1st, with totals reaching87.6 mm at Weabonga on the 2nd, its wettestFebruary day on record. Further thunderstormsimpacted eastern NSW on the 10th and 11th, withfalls of up to 58 mm at Curlewis to 9 am on the 11thand 95 mm at Wyong to 9 am on the 12th, whileeasterly flow produced persistent rain on the northcoast between the 15th and 21st.

In comparison totals were generally average tobelow average in inland NSW, with 35.09 mmrecorded in the Murray-Darling Basin, below thehistorical average of 40.38 mm. February was driestin the northern inland regions but slightly aboveaverage in southern and western NSW whereaverage totals are lower.

Most of the rain in this region fell on the last day ofthe month, with up to 115 mm at Thredbo, itswettest February day on record. Griffith Airport alsorecorded a record-breaking 44 mm after recordingjust 13.2 mm between 1 December and 27 February,what would have been the driest summer on record.Thunderstorms also produced rain in parts ofwestern NSW on the 14th and 15th.

The wettest overall was Yarras (Mount Seaview) with867.8 mm, followed by Leigh (Rolling Acres) with779.6 mm, followed by Dorrigo (Elm Street) with710.4 mm..
