Solar gains across Australia defy seasonal cloud forecast
As Australia's summer stretches into its second month, initial seasonal forecasts of greater-than-average cloud cover have not materialized with irradiance levels showing a much sunnier than expected season so far, according to analysis using the Solcast API. Localized events, such as Tropical Cyclone Sean, brought brief disruptions but had only a minor impact on the overall sunny trend this summer.
Despite forecasts suggesting greater-than-average cloud cover, irradiance across most of Australia for December and January was up to 10% above already high summer averages. This unexpected outcome defied numerical weather predictions at the start of summer that pointed to a cloudier-than-usual season. With clear skies prevailing over much of the continent, solar generation potential has exceeded initial expectations for the season.
However, not all regions escaped impacts from significant weather systems. Tropical Cyclone Sean, which reached category three intensity, reduced irradiance to 10% below average along a narrow section of the northwestern coastline. While heavy rains and extensive cloud cover affected the coast, much of the cyclone's cloud shield and core remained offshore, limiting the impact of reduced solar on isolated inland communities that typically rely on solar-powered microgrids.
