Does it really affect storm cycles dramatically? The last few years have been pretty consistent storm-wise here. I cant really say we've ever had a bad run of storms or weather but we aren't in the prime supercell zone. Maybe there is an effect on that developmental cycle? Last season was very impressive as far as severe storms on the more Eastern zones- Northern Rivers, SE QLD etc. and we did have a fairly decent run once they got started.
Is there a graph somewhere, either yearly or monthly, that I could possibly compare the last few years weather with?
You can see the cycle when the rain and HP storms come. They definitely only come into play every few years so maybe there's a good correlation to sync with in those terms?
If anyone could fill us in on this it would be John Allen.
