Outlook for the 2021/22 season
The outlooks for 2021/22 seasonal determinations are based on historical flow records that have been adjusted to match climate conditions observed since 1975. The outlook scenarios presented are:
Wet Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 10 years out of 100
Average Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 50 years out of 100
Dry Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 90 years out of 100
Extreme Dry Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 99 years out of 100
The following tables summarise possible high-reliability water share seasonal determinations through the season and include a reference year to help users recognise the possible inflow conditions.
