Maleny Weather

Throughout the week the Ranges were under the stable influence of a ridge of high pressure extending from a high in the Tasman Sea.  Daytime temperatures were well above average due to the northerly winds.  The heat stress factor peaked at 34ºC on Saturday and Sunday, culminating with a thunder and lightning display at 7.35 pm but there was only a splatter of rain measuring 0.2mm.  On Sunday evening the weather satellite was showing development of a significant upper level system heading our way, and with surface troughs is likely to bring thunderstorms and a band of rain to help fill near empty storage tanks.
