Rainfall - Driest January since 2003

The statewide average rainfall during January 2014 was 20.6 mm, well below the historical average of 65.6 mm and the driest January since 2003. Rainfall was below average across most of the state, with much of eastern NSW recording rainfall in the driest 10% of years. Several locations recorded their driest January on record, including Gunnedah and Guyra. The Murray Darling Basin recorded 22.1 mm of rain during the month (average 55.1 mm), also the driest January since 2003.

Conditions were dry for most of the month, with the exception of thunderstorms in parts of central NSW on the 9th and 10th, including localised falls of 77 mm at Parkes. A surface trough also generated widespread light rain across the state on the 24th and 25th, with heavier falls in the Snowy Mountains and on the North Coast.

Lord Howe Island also recorded just 11.4 mm during the month, the driest January since 1890 when 9.6 mm was recorded at the old site.

Some sites had their lowest total January rainfall on record.

Temperature - Three heatwaves for NSW

The statewide average maximum temperature for NSW during January 2014 was 2.7 °C above the historical average and the tenth-warmest on record. Daytime temperatures were more than 2 °C above normal across most of the state, with closer to average temperatures on the coastal strip. Minimum temperatures were also 1.3 °C above normal, with warmer than normal nights across much of the state, with the statewide average temperature consequently 1.9 °C above the historical average. The warm temperatures during the month were associated with the dry, sunny conditions, and three significant heatwaves during periods of warm northwesterly airflow.

January began with very warm temperatures in northern NSW between the 1st and the 3rd, breaking temperature records at 16 locations, many of which were set during the heatwave of January 2013. Temperatures reached 49.1 °C at Walgett on the 3rd, the warmest day anywhere in NSW since 1939, while many stations broke their previous record by more than 2 °C. In Narrabri, the record high daily temperature of 47.8 °C, recorded on January 3, was 3.6 °C above the previous record, the largest such margin on record for anywhere in Australia.

This was followed by several days of cooler conditions, with temperatures more than 6 °C below normal in southwest NSW on the 6th and in central NSW on the 9th, breaking several records. The second heatwave began to develop from the 12th, with temperatures more than 10 °C above normal in southern NSW between the 14th and 18th.While this heatwave broke few records for daily maximum temperature, several stations equalled their record for consecutive hot days including Hay, Albury and Canberra.

Warm temperatures persisted over most of the state until the 21st, with a return to cold temperatures across much of southwest NSW associated with a trough and storms on the 24th. A final heatwave began to develop from the 28th, with several consecutive days above 40 °C in southern NSW extending into the beginning of February.

For further information on heatwave events please see the relevant Special Climate Statements.

See a list of January temperature records.

Other phenomena

Several bushfires occurred in NSW during January, associated with the hot dry conditions. Bushfire activity was particularly widespread between the 17th and 19th, with five houses destroyed in a fire near Wagga Wagga.
