Millions of people living along Australia’s east coast are being warned to brace for heavier than usual rainfall in the coming months - while other areas are expecting an increased fire risk. The latest seasonal bushfire outlook, predicted above-average spring rainfall in NSW, Queensland, eastern Tasmania and far-southeast SA. However it also predicted worse-than-usual bushfire conditions for large swathes of northern Australia, and parts of Victoria and South Australia in the coming months.
chief executive Rob Webb said climate change had lengthened the bushfire season in a number of regions but spring was the typical peak for northern areas. “There’s no doubt through the changing climate, our fire seasons are getting longer but the typical peak of the fire season in northern Australia is this time of year, that August and into-September period, and it works its way south into the summer months,” he told AAP.
