14 dry days in a row could start 2026-08-22. A dry day here means 1mm of rain or less; the important number is the length of the run. Crops in flowering or fruit-set windows are most exposed.
Around 20mm of rain has fallen over the past 14 days — measurable moisture for an area that usually sees almost none. A healthier water balance is restoring locally.
Daily highs may average around 45.3°C over the next week — above the 40.5°C typical for this time of year. Outdoor work, livestock, and crops in flowering can come under stress.
