Canning Stock Route weather

Hi Phil,

Unless it is very heavy rain close to the time that you are leaving from home, it should not be a problem.
In the time that I have been on the CSR I have only had a few wet days and only had to spend a day on the edge of Lake Tobin before the track across it was dry enough to drive on.

Phil, what have you been eating? You have have got much younger all of a sudden. You might have to go back to w++k. lol

Phil, use the below Bureau web site to search for rainfall records.
It contains all basic climate data for every recording site across Australia

http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/data/

If you look at the option called position you can enter long/latt co ordinates and select weather stations within a specified radius (which you nominate) of those co ordinates. It includes data from pastoral stations (at least those who supply it to the Bureau)

G'day Phil,

I work on a mine site 50km northeast of Wiluna, in the last three weeks we have only had a couple of days rain probably 20-30mm all up but it drys up pretty bloody quick once the rain stops.

In January Wiluna had its wettest January ever with just over 200mm most of which fell in a 2 day period, all the roads were closed for a few days but even then it was mostly dry again after a week or so.

Flying into work for the couple of months after that rain you would of though you were flying over the south west in winter time, it was that green it was all most unbelievable.

I would imagine the spinifex will have grown well out that way i know it has around here.

Have a good trip, Paul.

Hello Phil

Cant help with any recent info...was up around Savory Creek ->Well 22 about one month ago..a few thunderstorms, very spectacular. Anyway, don't think you will have any problems unless something massive comes through between now and then (unlikely)

I have attached a few pics as teasers for your upcoming trip.

Have fun.









Cheers
Greg
