RIP outdoor workers 🥲
RIP my lawn
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Queensland is expected to face more heatwaves and fewer cyclones in the months ahead, according to the Bureau of Meteorology's severe weather outlook.
The Bureau's climatologist, Hugh McDowell, said drier conditions and warmer than average temperatures were forecast for Queensland.
He said El Niño and positive Indian Ocean Dipole were the driving factors for the warm weather.
The Bureau of Meteorology also warned Queensland could face severe storms, flooding, and cyclones this season.
BOM meteorologist Laura Boekel said there was no significant link between El Niño and severe storms.
For cyclones, the season runs typically from November to April, peaking between February and March in Queensland.
