However Australia is the world’s driest continent after Antarctica and has suffered major droughts in the recent past.
As for changes in climate, this is from the Australia Bureau of Meteorology:
“Since the middle of the 20th century, Australian temperatures have, on average, risen by about 1°C with an increase in the frequency of heat-waves and a decrease in the numbers of frosts and cold days. Rainfall patterns have also changed - the north-west has seen an increase in rainfall over the last 50 years while much of eastern Australia and the far south-west have experienced a decline.”

The projection for the next few decades is that water supply problems are expected intensify by 2030 in southern and eastern Australia. 0% 0 Votes
