The two-week trend
Warming. The second half of the window averages 36°F warmer than the days immediately ahead.
The window averages 51°F against a October normal of 50°F - right on average.
Rainfall over the next 7 days is close to normal for October (1,4 in against a typical 1,0 in).
What this means for Tasmania
Today is cooler than average for October. The forecast high of 42°F is 7.9°F below the 50°F typical for this month.
A 100% chance means rain is expected over most of the area. Plan indoor alternatives. Around 0,5 in is forecast, which is enough to soak trails and slow traffic.
Gusts to 54 mph will push high-sided vehicles on exposed roads and bridges. Overnight lows near 33°F mean ice is possible on bridges before dawn. Wet roads are likely; braking distances roughly double in heavy rain.
Southern Hemisphere, so peak summer falls in December to February.
The gap between the warmest and coldest month averages 48°F.
What to pack, what to skip
- A warm mid-layer and gloves for early mornings and evenings
- Insulated outer layer, hat and boots with grip for ice
- A packable rain shell - 3 of the next 7 days carry a real chance of rain
- Avoid exposed ridgelines, small boats and rooftop viewpoints while gusts stay above 54 mph.
- If your dates are flexible, avoid June, July and August - historically the least comfortable months here.
