Forecast

Nhulunbuy has a tropical savanna climate with two main seasons: a wet season and a dry season. The wet season usually lasts from November to April. Days are hot and humid, with heavy rain, thunderstorms, and strong winds. Tropical cyclones can sometimes affect the area.

During the dry season, from May to October, the weather is usually sunny, warm, and much less humid. Rain is uncommon. October and November are often called the build-up because heat and humidity rise before the wet season storms begin.

Air pressure helps shape these seasons. In the dry season, high pressure over Australia brings sinking air, clear skies, and dry southeast winds. In the wet season, lower pressure and rising warm air help draw moist air from the Arafura Sea. This creates clouds, storms, and heavy rainfall.

Nhulunbuy is on the Gove Peninsula beside the sea. The surrounding ocean supplies moisture and helps reduce extreme temperatures. Its coastal position also exposes it to monsoon winds and cyclones. The nearby flat tropical land heats quickly, helping storms form during the wet season.
