Accurate Weather Forecasting for Australian Conditions
Site-specific forecasts for growers, industry, tourism, and anyone who needs more than a generic weather app.
Model-Informed Forecasts
Forecasts are guided by decades of experience in weather and environmental science, using the best available global models and Australian observations. Where data allows, weather modelling is tuned to give a truer picture of conditions on the ground.
Detailed Risk Analysis
Frost risk, chill hours, heat stress, snow levels/depths, and wind thresholds — updated every 3 hours out to 10 days. Delivered in clear maps and charts, with PDFs built and emailed directly for real-world planning.
Multi-Run Model Blending
We don’t rely on a single forecast. Data is combined from multiple model runs to derive realistic outcomes based on probability — not sensationalism.
Why The Weather Project Exists
I’ve spent 30 years in weather, climate, and environmental science — building systems that work in the background so you get clear, reliable forecasts without the noise.
If you’re tired of vague headlines, clickbait “alerts”, or forecasts that don’t match your reality — this site is for you. You don’t have to take my word for it. Let the data speak.
We can deliver the data you need directly to you. Enquire about our PDF products that are emailed direct on a daily basis and are customisable to give you the information you need. We offer a free 3-day trial, email theweatherproject.me@gmail.com for more information.

In-Depth Weather Insights
Australia’s 2024–25 Climate Divide: Drought in the South, Floods in the North
A deep dive into the extraordinary climate contrasts across Australia over the past year. Southern regions are facing lowest-on-record rainfall, while inland Queensland and the NT have seen extreme wet conditions and the filling of Lake Eyre.
What Ongoing Dry Means for Farmers This Winter
With poor autumn breaks, dry topsoil, and weak cold fronts so far, we explore the risks facing farmers across southern Australia this winter — from delayed pastures to difficult crop establishment.
What This Means for the 2025 Snow Season
With the subtropical ridge still dominant and two years of early snowmelt behind us, we explore whether the 2025 snow season has any chance of recovery — and what indicators are worth watching heading into winter.
