Additional scenarios

17 August Outlook for the 2026/27 Season

The outlooks for 2026/27 seasonal determinations are based on historical flow records that have been adjusted to match climate conditions observed since 1975.

The scenarios for different inflow conditions we/re produced using the following terminology:

• Wet: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 10 years out of 100
• Above Average: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 30 years out of 100
• Average: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 50 years out of 100
• Below Average: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 70 years out of 100
• Dry: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 90 years out of 100
• Very Dry: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 95 years out of 100
• Extreme Dry: Inflow volumes to major storages that are greater in 99 years out of 100
