All parts of Australia are subject to drought. However, the eastern coast is least likely to have a drought, meaning that virtually anywhere inland of teh great Dividing Range is more likely to be affected.

In Queensland, some areas were drought-declared in August 2002, and are still in drought (October 2008), whereas other regions have had the drought declaration lifted, following good rainfalls earlier in 2008.

How long has Australia been in a drought?

Australia has had many droughts, and in some parts of the country these droughts are continuing even today. There is always a region or shire in Australia which is drought-declared at any given time. It is the geography of the continent which makes Australia so prone to droughts. Some of Australia's major historical droughts include: * The "Federation drought" 1895-1902 * The drought of 1914-15 * The World War II droughts between 1937-45 * 1965-68 drought * The 1982-83 drought, culminating in the horrific Ash Wednesday bushfires * El Niño - 1991 through to 1995 This list is by no means exhaustive, as drought continues in many regions, and has done so since the beginning of this new millennium.
