Tasmanian Weather — what to expect
According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology Australia and the globe are experiencing rapid climate changes. Since the middle of the 20th century, Australian temperatures have, on average, risen by about 1 degree Celsius with an increase in the frequency of heatwaves and a decrease in the number of frosts and cold days. Rainfall patterns have also changed – the northwest has seen an increase in rainfall over the last 50 years while much of eastern Australia and the far southwest have experienced a decline.

What to wear
A good rule of thumb is never go anywhere without a coat – we can easily have 4 seasons in one day!!!. Have a warm jacket for autumn, winter and spring and a light jacket for summer. Even a hot day of Temperatures in the high 20’s can have a cool evening. Hobart is the 2nd driest city in Australia after Adelaide – we get most of our rain in the spring. We also get the second highest amount of sunshine in Australia after Adelaide.
