9-15 day rainfall outlook

Two leading models this week: 9-day ECMWF and NCEP 15-day loop.

Some serious rainfall activity predicted for parts of Australia’s NW and eastern areas.

A sneak peek at the updated multi-week models just now shows the BOM model going extreme wet ‘till mid-April, JMA showing slightly above average and the IRI model much more cautious with a focus on rain events for inland NSW, Qld channel country and the Gulf for the next 3 weeks.

Updated SSTs show waters warming to Australia’s north and the Coral Sea continues to warm up, which is encouraging.
