A busy 2-3 weeks ahead for most areas with southern and eastern regions set to capture more of the moisture during the current MJO event, which is currently active over Australia in phase 5-6. When the MJO moves into the Western Pacific in November, gaps appear with fine weather returning for grain harvest in NSW and S Qld.

Model form: the rather cautious IRI model is more bullish for NSW and showing a dry signal for the tropics in the coming weeks. The JMA is optimistic for Qld earlier in the month and NSW later in November. The BOMs ACCESS S and ECMWF seem to have the rose coloured glasses on throughout the next three weeks and should be taken with a grain of salt.
