April 2019 Report. (Month Average 108 cpm)
As we move into the cooler months here in the Southern hemisphere, the month average background levels decrease. This seasonal variation in background happens every year as we get more southern ocean air flows in the cooler months. In the warmer months we get more tropical air flows.

Southern Hemisphere February & March 2019 Background Radiation Level Report
Station location
http://sccc.org.au/monitoring/Australian-Map.jpg
This short animation of Northern and Southern Hemisphere air circulation, shows why we can get detections so far south.
March 2019 Report.
We finally received around 300mm of rain in March, decent rain after an exceptionally dry period.
Towards the latter part of March, around when the rain started, a number of very short detection spikes showed up in the 24 hour charts.
Below are examples of a couple of the larger spike detections.
It is normal to occasionally get background spikes, three times background or less. These detections were less than three times background, so are probably not anything to be concerned about.
