New South Wales in December 2017: Very warm nights and wet in the south
New South Wales was warmer than average in December, and the second-warmest December on record for minimum temperature. Rainfall was around average for the State overall, although large areas of the south and west received twice their monthly average due to heavy rains at the start of the month.
A wet start in the south
- Rainfall in December was around average overall for the State, 23% above the December mean
- A strong cold front interacted with a mass of humid air at the start of the month bringing heavy rainfall to the south and west; large areas received more than twice their average December rainfall for the month in the first week and several stations had their wettest December on record
- Many stations in the Riverina, South West Slopes and Lower Western districts had their wettest December day on record in the 24 hours to 9am on the 2nd
- Below average monthly totals were recorded in the North West Slopes and Plains, Hunter and Upper Western districts
Summer begins with warm nights
- December 2017 was the seventh-warmest December on record for New South Wales, 2.00 °C above average
- The State's mean maximum was 1.80 °C above average, with maximum temperatures above average across most of the State away from the southwest
- The State's mean minimum was 2.20 °C above average, the second warmest on record for December; many stations from the Hunter District down to the South Coast had their warmest December minima on record
- Several sites around Sydney had their warmest December day on record on the 19th and 20th, and a number of stations across the State had their warmest December night (highest daily minimum temperature) on record from the 18th to the 20th during the State's first heatwave of the summer
- Temperatures in part of the northwest stayed above 30 °C from the 18th to the 20th; the minimum temperature at Tibooburra on the 19th was a record warm 33.5 °C, the second-warmest December minimum recorded in the State, and the fourth-highest minimum temperature recorded at any time of year
A stormy Christmas in the northeast
- Thunderstorms brought localised heavy falls and hail to northeastern parts of the State during the month, including reports of large hail west of Armidale on the 25th and Inverell on the 26th, and 202 mm of rainfall recorded at Port Macquarie Airport in the 24 hours to 9 am on the 27th

Notes
The Monthly climate summary, generally published on the first working day of each month, lists the main features of the weather in New South Wales using the most timely and accurate information available on the date of publication; it will generally not be updated. More extensive discussion of significant weather events, along with later information and data that has had greater opportunity for quality control, will be presented in the Monthly Weather Review.
This statement has been prepared based on information available at 1 pm on Tuesday 9 January 2018. Some checks have been made on the data, but it is possible that results will change as new information becomes available.
In some situations, some or all of the rainfall is in the form of hail or snow. In these cases the totals given are for the water equivalent: the depth of liquid water that results from melting any frozen precipitation. There can be significant 'undercatch' of snow in strong winds, meaning the true precipitation can be higher than that reported.
Averages for individual sites are long-term means based on observations from
all available years of record, which vary widely from site to site.
They are not shown for sites with less than 10 years of record, as they cannot then be calculated reliably.
The median
is sometimes more representative than the
mean
of long-term average rain.
The Rank indicates how rainfall this time compares with the climate record for the site,
based on the
decile ranking
(very low rainfall is in decile 1, low in decile 2 or 3,
average in decile 4 to 7, high in decile 8 or 9
and very high is in decile 10).
The Fraction of average shows how much rain has fallen this time as a
percentage of the long-term mean.
Where temperature area averages are mentioned, they are derived from the ACORN-SAT dataset.
