Wet year for SA is (mostly) good news for the environment
2022 was a wet year for most of South Australia, resulting in a range of environmental impacts – largely positive. The year kicked off with extreme weather events in January and ended with a once-in-a-generation River Murray flood, in a year when above-average rainfall was received across much of the state. The higher rainfall – around 38 per cent more than usual, averaged across the state – means good things for many local environments and the communities that rely on them. After 3 successive La Niña events, it’s been a case of ‘just add water’ to see things grow or breed.
