After 78 days of no rain, Perth's dry spell was finally broken on Sunday when the city recorded 0.2mm in the rain gauge- just enough to officially register as a day of rain. While the dry spell is "officially" broken, this tiny amount of rain is actually negligible in terms of what it would have done for gardens and rain tanks, and the dry weather is continuing with warm and sunny conditions for at least another week.
This period is now the city's second longest dry spell with the record still standing at 83 days from 15 December 1974 to 7th March 1975.
