Special Update SA Strong cold front and cut off low May 29th-31st 2022 Review: G’Day everyone, time to discuss this up and coming system and a significant one it still looks to be at that. This is the seasonal breaker for most districts. As explained in the previous update, we will see an increase in the penetration and strength of the systems as our pattern changes and season breaks. We begun with some scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms out west which weakened to patchy rain and general showers towards Central Districts before re-developing again out east and north the next day. Rainfall was patchy but most districts ranged between 3-12mm. Some isolated totals were record about the ranges and Eyre Pen over 20mm and numerous holes over both the Lower and Upper North as well as the Mallee.

Now if you had your eye on the sky over the past few days you would have noted quite a bit of surfaced based convection around during the late mornings and early to mid-afternoons and this was due to the NE flow bring in moisture out of the very damp eastern seaboard.

Firstly, the planned fishing trip out to Fowlers Bay and surrounds went well for a week  before tracking back through Elliston for a couple of nights. Then onto some major sinus surgery for  myself on the 11th, can’t say that I recommend it, but I know long term it should be good – nothing  quite like a new snoz after many years of grief. Now due to the May outlook being issued before the end of April, I wasn’t able to give you the final  charts to discuss how the month performed so I will do this here. 2 / 11 Figure 1: April 2022 rainfall d
