Western Australia in February 2017: Wet with mild daytime temperatures

Rainfall in February was above average for most of Western Australia, particularly in the western parts of the State, with record high totals in parts of southwest WA. The state-wide averaged rainfall was about 70% higher than the long-term average. For the South West Land Division (SWLD), it was the second wettest February on record, and the wettest February for 62 years, since 1955. Mean maximum temperatures were below average for most of WA, while mean minimum temperatures were mostly near average.

Above average rainfall for most of WA; second-wettest February for the SWLD

• Rainfall averaged across WA was just over 100 mm, about seventy percent higher than the long-term average
• The SWLD recorded its second-wettest February on record, and the wettest February for 62 years, since 1955
• Many record high February daily rainfalls were recorded between 8 and 11 February as a tropical low moved over the Pilbara and an associated cloudband developed over southwest WA
• Over fifty locations in the SWLD observed their wettest February on record, while more than an hundred sites reported their wettest February on record for at least 20 years

Below average mean maximum temperatures for most of WA

• The mean maximum temperature for WA was 1.3 °C below average, the lowest for six years since February 2011
• The mean maximum temperature for the SWLD was 1.6 °C below average, the lowest for sixteen years since February 2001
• Persistent rain and cool southeasterly winds led to many locations in the SWLD observing their lowest February daily maximum temperature on record between the 8th and 10th
• Several sites in the SWLD had their mildest February on record, while a dozen or so had their mildest February for at least 20 years
• Mean minimum temperatures were close to average across much of WA
  

Heavy rainfall and flooding

• A tropical low formed to the north of Western Australia early in February, and a cloudband associated with this tropical low developed over southwest Western Australia and brought widespread rainfall and many record high February daily rainfalls between 8 and 11 February. Flooding was reported across large parts of southwest WA as a result, with major flooding reported in the Avon catchment, and minor flooding in the Swan downstream from the Avon, as well as major flooding in the Esperance Coast Basin and Blackwood River catchment (see Special Climate Statement 60 for more details)
