What is the weather like in Australia in December?

Answer 1

The obvious answer to this is "hot", but this is not the case throughout Australia. Australia's climate regions range from tropical to warm temperate to cool temperate. Australia is a vast country, and thus the weather is different in different parts of the country in summer.

Australia's summer runs from December through to February. In the far north of Queensland and the Northern Territory, there can be tropical storms and monsoons which bring weeks of heavy, soaking rain. Australia is prone to cyclones between November and March, and these can hit anywhere from Western Australia's northern half, across the Northern Territory, through the Gulf country and down to Queensland's central coast.

Central Australia is also very hot and dry during this time.

Some of the regions in Australia are hot and dry in summer, particularly in the south of the continent. Tasmania and other regions of southern Australia can fluctuate quite widely, from cool and pleasant to hot and dry. In the south, late summer is prime bushfire time, when temperatures are not only excessively hot, but dry as well.

Answer 2

Australia's winter begins on June 1 and continues for the months of June, July and August. It tends to be marked by dry and cool conditions in the northern half of the continent, and much colder and wetter conditions in the southern half. In the far tropical north of Australia, winter is less easily defined. There tends to just be a dry season, which extends from May through to September/October, contrasted with the wet season for the remainder of the year.

Answer 3

Australia's winter season runs from June to August. The weather varies from cold and wet in the south, to warm, dry and pleasant in the north. Many travellers from the south visit the northern tropical regions of Queensland's coast and the Northern Territory during winter because the weather is so balmy.

Answer 4

Australian weather in December is very hot, except in Tasmania, where temperatures can still drop to 15 degrees Celsius or less. Tasmania also has summer days of excessive heat. The rest of the nation can experience hot and dry weather, with the threat of bushfires, or hot and humid weather, with severe storms. As Darwin experienced in 1974, December can be a time for cyclones as well.

Answer 5

There are 92 days in Winter and the months of Winter are June, July and August.

Answer 6

the winter is cold and rainy around a low of 3 to a high of 12 during the day, sometimes more, sometimes less but the average is 3 - 12.
