Hadley cell
Wongan Hills historically had a Mediterranean climate (Köppen "Csa") however drying associated with widening of the Hadley cell has shifted the area in recent times to a hot semi-arid climate ("BSh"). The climate is similar to Northern Hemisphere areas on the southern Mediterranean Sea like Tripoli or Gaza City, though Wongan Hills’ inland location produces hotter, less arid summers and cooler winters than those localities. Summers are hot to sweltering and generally arid, though occasionally tropical cyclones from the hot Indian Ocean will affect the region after moving inland, whilst winters are comfortable with cold nights and occasional showers.
