About this table

  • These observations have not been quality controlled.
  • Different stations report at different time intervals, ranging from half hourly to twice daily.
  • All observations including locations outside of TAS are shown in local time.
  • 'Temp' is Temperature.
  • 'App Temp' is the Steadman Apparent Temperature in shade. The Apparent Temperature is an estimation of what the temperature 'feels like' to an appropriately dressed adult. Direct exposure to the afternoon sun would add as much as 8°C to the App Temp. About Thermal Comfort Observations
  • Delta-T is Wet Bulb Depression (Air Temperature - Wet Bulb Temperature). About Delta-T
  • Wind 'Dir' is the direction the wind comes from, reported to 16 points of the compass.
  • Wind observations are a 10-minute average from the standard height of 10 metres.
  • Wind speed is a 10 minute average speed in knots.
  • The wind gust is measured over 3 seconds.
  • 'Press' is Mean Sea Level Pressure. The correction from station level pressure to mean sea level pressure may sometimes use the conditions specified by the International Standard Atmosphere in the conversion process, rather than the conditions at the station at the time of the observation.
  • 'Trace' is a trace (<0.1mm) of rainfall.
  • 'Low Temp' is Lowest Temperature measured from midnight and is available for stations with high frequency reporting schedules.
    (Note: Minimum temperatures in the Bureau's climate records are measured from 9am to 9am and may differ from the values shown in this table.)
  • 'High Temp' is Highest Temperature measured from midnight and is available for stations with high frequency reporting schedules.
    (Note: Maximum temperatures in the Bureau's climate records are measured from 9am to 9am and may differ from the values shown in this table.)
  • '-' indicates that no data is available at that time.
