Climate

[edit | edit source]
Strathbogie Elevation Sign

Strathbogie has warm, dry summers, though which are frequently interrupted by cold fronts on account of its proximity to the Southern Ocean (typical of central Victoria); summer maximum temperatures have been as low as 9.7 °C (49.5 °F) on 1 December 2019, and on 3 February 2005 the maximum did not exceed 10.5 °C (50.9 °F).

A pronounced autumnal lag is noted (March being almost as warm as December), and the winters are cold and rainy with many occurrences of snow. It has a 'Mediterranean' rainfall pattern, with nearly thrice the rainfall in winter than in high summer.
