December to February is summer for the Australians and March to May is autumn. The continent-country experiences winters in the months from June to August. September to November is spring for them, basically everything opposite to that experienced by the countries in the northern hemisphere.

2020 didn't start off on a great note for Australia because of the massive Australian Bushfires! The country was facing the worst climate in its history in the months of January February and even last year. The bushfires took away several lives and more than 1 billion animals were estimated to have been killed. Damages to houses, wilds, property and missing people were innumerable. Firefighters were battling round the clock and after a while, the fire was contained.
