Rainfall - September 2010
The long-term September average was exceeded in parts of north, central and south-west Victoria due to a significant rainfall event over the first weekend of the month. This rare event stemmed from a broad low-pressure system originating in the tropics and caused widespread flooding in the north and west of the state.
There was little significant rainfall across Victoria throughout the rest of the month.
Rainfall in the Gippsland region was well below the long-term September average. The volume of rainfall recorded at Cann River in Victoria’s far east was the lowest September rainfall on record.
The highest rainfall of 234.6 mm was recorded at Mt Buller in the Alpine region.
Melbourne recorded average rainfall for September.
