November to April is the official cyclone season, although November cyclones are rare and there have been cyclones outside of the season, such as in May.

The reason cyclones occur at this time is because these are Australia's warmest months, and cyclones need warm sea temperatures of 26.5 degrees Celsius or higher to form.

See the link below for the frequency of cyclones for each month below.

Why aren't there hurricanes in Australia?

Australia does not typically experience hurricanes because it is located in the Southern Hemisphere, where hurricanes are known as cyclones. The waters surrounding Australia, particularly the Pacific and Indian Oceans, do not typically have the necessary warm temperatures and specific atmospheric conditions to support the formation and intensification of hurricanes. Additionally, Australia's geography and position relative to the equator play a role in reducing the likelihood of hurricanes making landfall in the region.
