The Great Drought of 1895–1903

e
An El Niño event is a weather pattern that

Pr
happens when there is unusually warm water in
the Pacific Ocean. It can cause heavy rain and
floods in some places and drought (when there is
5 no rain for a long time) in others. Between 1895

ity
and 1903 there were three El Niño events, one
after the other, and they produced one of the
worst droughts in Australia’s history.
During this long period of no rain, large rivers

rs
10 became dry and there were times of extreme
heat. The conditions were especially bad in the
west of New South Wales. During the summer of
ve
1897, temperatures of 52°C were recorded. For
three weeks the town of Burke had an average
15 temperature of 44°C, including four days of 48°C.
Strong winds created dust storms and bushfires

started insome areas. Many towns had very little


water and the number of deaths rose by more
than 20% in New South Wales.
