Summary: In July 2024, temperatures above the east Antarctic coastline rose by approximately 50°C due to a Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW) event, a phenomenon rare in the Southern Hemisphere. This warming could influence Australia's weather through August and into spring, potentially leading to stormy conditions and changes in temperature patterns. The event marks the strongest recorded SSW for a Southern Hemisphere winter.
