Twelve-month atmospheric patterns derived from representative-point long-term records.

Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Monthly Climate Normals, Temperature, and Precipitation

Annual climate cycles for Great Barrier Reef Marine Park reflect long-term trends recorded between 1991 and 2020. This profile presents verified monthly averages for mean temperature, daily precipitation, relative humidity, wind speed, and daylight duration at a representative coordinate. Data provides a static atmospheric baseline for understanding seasonal rhythm, distinct from real-time weather observations, current conditions, or seasonal forecasts.

Great Barrier Reef Marine Park annual climate and rainfall pattern

At Great Barrier Reef Marine Park’s sea-level point, the 1991–2020 mean-temperature range runs from 22.79 °C in August to 27.92 °C in February, with monthly average minima and maxima framing the thermal variation. Average daily precipitation is lowest in September at 0.28 mm and highest in February at 6.07 mm; this point climatology does not describe every reef or predict marine weather.
