The daily maximum temperatures for the first half of December 2024 are likely to range between 32°C and 34°C on most days.

On a few days, the daily maximum temperature can exceed 34°C slightly.

Second half of Nov. 2024 was wet

The second fortnight of November 2024 was wet, as moderate to heavy thundery showers occurred on most days.
