One more satellite image is worth sharing. The one below uses false colours to highlight vegetation, with the green shading showing areas that have even the smallest hint of vegetation.

Indeed Alice Springs saw rain on six of the last 11 days of 2022. The green tinge in Central Australia is not just due to downpours during the last gasp of Ellie before it petered out on January 8, but also thanks to late December rain. The path of Ellie is worth recreating in this story, as you can see how it lingered for several days in the Kimberley region delivering record rainfall and flooding there, before making a second visit to Central Australia. That was a result of ex-Tropical Cyclone Ellie, which spent an unusually long amount of time wandering circuitously across outback regions after it had downgraded to a tropical low. We told you back on January 9 that Alice Springs and Uluru had copped a drenching, with over 100 mm of rainfall at the Alice over two days – one of which was the wettest January day in 22 years. Now take a squiz at the same region about seven weeks earlier. Beautiful green, green grass and other vegetation.
