Discussion: A major heat wave is emerging in the medium range across Australia. A high-pressure ridge amplifies across Western Australia into early next week causing the onset of the hot weather pattern. East-coastal Australia is cool into early next week. However, the upper ridge is progressive, and the heat wave advances across Australia in the 6-10-day period according to the latest AI model, EXCARTA (Fig. 1). In the 6-10-day period the 100F/38C threshold shifts to the east-central continent. In the 11-15-day period, EXCARTA indicates the upper ridge amplifies and delivers excessive heat to much of the continent including eastern sections with widespread >100F/38C risk (Fig. 2). The hot weather pattern collapses during the middle third of November.
