Monday afternoon, EST, Tropical Cyclone Raymond is dissipating
well inland in northern parts of Australia's state of Western
Australia. Even so, the threat of heavy, flooding rain will linger for
another day or two.
Far to the southwest in Western Australia from where Raymond came
ashore, Monday was even hotter than usual. The town of Dampier set a
high of 115 degrees while Mardie peaked at 113. Roebourne and Shay
Gap each rose to at least 112 degrees. Each of these marks were 10-15
degrees above average.
Recent days have been quite rainy in the South Pacific island
nation of Tuvalu. At Funafuti, rainfall was 6.4 inches within 18
hours and 6.9 inches within about 30 hours as of Tuesday morning,
local time.
After a relatively warm December overall, the new year has
brought an invasion of cold air into the western plains of Canada.
December had its cold snaps, but these were outnumbered by very warm
spells with temperatures more than 20 degrees above normal on some
days. At Calgary, the severe cold began last Thursday when the high
temperature was only 11 degrees, well below the average high
temperature of 25 degrees. Temperatures continued to plummet for the
New Year's holiday, with Friday and Saturday having high temperatures
of 6 and 5 degrees below zero, respectively. Sunday saw temperatures
struggle into the single-digits above zero. The cold was even more
severe at Edmonton, where the temperature dropped below zero Thursday
night, and had not risen above that mark through Monday afternoon.
