Yeah, I'm going off Cairns Aero data, as it has all the climate data, whereas the AWS's and the alerts around the place don't.

Just that the 2021 wet season may not have been a fizzer,- as at the end of March we'd had 1320.4 mm, with the long term average for those three months being 1261.4 mm.
(Jan - 403.2 mm -- Feb - 443.1 mm & Mar - 415.1 mm). Sure, the good rains on 19th Apr & to the months end, put it way over the 200.0 mm average, with 804.4 mm falling in total.

But things were doing better than average until then, and April could possibly have finished close to the long term average.
