“National Environmental Protection Agency were referred back to state regulators because methane falls outside Gorgon's federal approval. The WA government said it was unclear of its role in managing the potential leak.” You couldn’t make this up

I have NEVER seen a BoM extreme (chance of top 20% of all years) maximum temperature outlook with numbers as high as this. And this is for summer 2026-27. Crikey. Sydney with a shocking high chance of extremes - watch out in the western suburbs. Can’t rule out 50C www.bom.gov.au/climate/outl...
