Here's and interesting graph showing the trend in rain fall across Australia since 1960:

Most of Australia's population, and most of our agriculture (by value) is located where rainfall is trending down - the east coast from Adelaide to central QLD, and the southwest. The monsoonal (summer/tropical) rains on the other hand are increasing and often coming further south.

I'd say the graph is inaccurate.

2 years ago on an outback jaunt into the SW corner of QLD, into Sth Aust to Innamincka then back into NSW at Tibooburra, down to Broken Hill then through Menidee Lakes to Wentworth on the NSW/Vic border, back up through central NSW, to Hay, Hilston, Lake Cargelligo, Parkes, Dubbo, Gilgandra, Narrabri to Goondiwindi & home ....

the country was green and raining through most parts. Mennidee Lakes were chocka full.
The grain growing country from Hilston north to Gilgandra was in it's 3rd bumper cropping season.
Old blokes in the pub at Hilston couldn't remember so many successive bumper years.

It had been flooding through a lot of the country on our route. One route we wanted to take was closed.

We had rain with us most of the way from Gilgandra north & into QLD.

The following year contacts in Gilgandra said they'd had another wet and flooding event which was the start of another bumper year.

Last year and this year has seen a lot of rain through those areas and to the coast of NSW.

Every 2nd weekend watching the NRL games in Newcastle & Sydney it's been pissing down, like it did again last weekend.

I've recently been on an outback loop out to Morven, up to Barcaldine and back through Springsure, the coalfields, Theodore, Crackow, Eidsvold and home. Accept it is dry around Barcaldine(still plenty of grass) the country was green and lush. The cattle rolling fat.

A rain band from the far northwest is currently going through Central & SE QLD as I type.

It's raining here now - late June in winter.

Are you trying out some more Church of the Climate Change Alarmists propaganda?

Lake Eyre has been filling since February and water is still flowing into it.

They've been having good seasons for the past 4 years ..... and I've gone out west 4 times in the past 4 years.

Climate always changes. It has since the world began. It's not an occurrence that warrants catastrophic alarmism.

What are the parameters of 'climate change'? How long is weather and when does it become climate?

Obviously the weather is different each day, month, year and each locality there is a trend in all sorts of aspects of the weather - hours of sun, temsp, cloud, rain, frost, snow, wind, (water cycle) - which can be statistically aggregated to give us 'climate'.

Would a weather station's measurements change if you put it in a park originally, but a hundred years later it is surrounded by concreted car parks and streets and building? Is urbanisation a contributor to 'cimate change' in cities growing very quickly?


Forest fires 100 years didnt claim as many lives as they can now because there weren't so many 'eco-friendly' people living is mismanaged forested areas.

And so and so forth.  Climate change, net zero, rebewables, clean energy, carbon pollution - so many slogans, so many shibboleths to tell religio-political friend from foe.

You are the one insisting that the statistics are incorrect because you noticed some rain.

It appears that Aquascoot has decided that horse sense is the only solution to AGW.

However, the only evidence Aquacooot has is horse sh!t.
