Queensland in summer 2018-19: Record high rainfall and flooding in the north; very dry in the south

Rainfall was well above average, in the northwest, northern interior and northeast coast, and record high in some areas. In contrast, large areas of southern Queensland reported well below average summer rainfall, and the driest on record at some locations. It was the fourth-warmest summer on record in terms of mean temperature. Mean maximum temperatures were warmer than usual in western and southern Queensland, but near-average in the north. Mean minimum temperatures were above average across most of the State.

Record high rainfall in the north; very dry in the south

• Rainfall was the highest on record in parts of the northwest, northern interior and northeast coast; a number of sites had their highest total summer rainfall on record or in several decades
• Tropical cyclone Owen brought moderate to heavy falls to the north and the east of the State in December, then remnants of ex-tropical cyclone Penny produced moderate to locally heavy falls along the Capricornia to central coasts on 9 and 10 January
• From 24 January to early February, an active monsoon trough and an embedded low pressure system in northwest Queensland brought extreme heavy fall to northern Queensland
• Major flooding occurred in the Gulf rivers, and the northeast coast of Queensland between Daintree and Mackay, including Townsville
• Further information about the heavy rainfall in the northern tropics can be found in the Special Climate Statement An extended period of heavy rainfall and flooding in tropical Queensland
• In contrast, there was a lack of any significant rain-bearing systems in southern districts during summer, and large areas of southern Queensland had well below average rainfall, with may sites having their driest summer on record or driest in several decades

A warm summer

• It was the fourth-warmest summer on record for the State in terms of mean temperature (1.58 °C above average)
• Queensland's mean maximum temperature was the equal seventh-warmest on record (1.50 °C above average); statewide mean minimum temperature was the third-warmest (1.65 °C above average)
• Mean maximum temperatures for summer were warmer than usual in western and southern Queensland, and Seventeen Seventy had its highest summer mean daily maximum temperature on record
• It was the third-warmest December on record for Queensland in terms of mean temperature; mean maximum temperatures were warmer than usual in the north and western half of the State during December and the warmest statewide mean minimum temperature on record for December
• Queensland had its warmest January on record in terms of mean temperature (2.46 °C above average), beating the previous record set in 2018; the statewide mean minimum temperature was the warmest on record, and 2.53 °C above the long-term average, and it was Queensland's fifth-warmest January on record for mean maximum temperature (2.39 °C above average)
• A delayed monsoon onset over the Gulf Country resulted in an extended period of hot days in the northwest in January; both Cloncurry and Camooweal had a record run of days at or above 40 °C
• In February, both mean maximum and mean minimum temperatures were cooler than usual in the northwest, and warmer than average along the northeast coast and large parts of southern Queensland
• A low-intensity heatwave affected parts of Queensland around the 20 and 21 February, with some sites reporting their highest summer temperature on record

Tropical cyclones

• Tropical cyclone Owen brought moderate to locally heavy falls to the north and east of the State in December
• Remnants of ex-tropical cyclone Penny produced moderate to locally heavy fall along the central and Capricornia coasts on 9 and 10 January
• Tropical cyclone Oma approached the southeast coast of Queensland in late February; although the system did not bring extensive rain, high tides exacerbated by increasing east northeast swell and wave action associated with the system caused coastal erosion and inundation of low-lying areas along the southern Queensland coast from 20 February
  

Fires

• From 26 to 30 November, more than 715,000 hectares was burnt in Queensland; fires were still burning into December and the total burn area from 22 November to 6 December was 1,011,702 hectares

• A fire started at Stradbroke Island on 28 November from a lightning strike and continued to burn until 15 December 201
