A La Nina climate is forecast to develop late in 2017. Typically, La Nina brings wet weather to eastern Australia during the summer season including increased risk of tropical cyclone activity. The rainfall is needed given dry-to-drought conditions affecting much of eastern Australia. The mid-to-late spring outlook indicates above normal rainfall for parts of eastern Australia weakening the drought scenario. However, once summertime arrives precipitation is near to drier than normal with anomalous heat likely. The drought condition affecting southwest Australia whet could regenerate.
