Lucas Heights weather station
ANSTO continually collects meteorological data from its 50-metre tower on its Lucas Heights campus, located around 30 km south-west of the Sydney CBD.
A summary of ANSTO's climate statistics including temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and rainfall recorded at this location are provided below. An extended table with more statistics is available through the Bureau of Meteorology website. Data on non-ionising radiation (ultraviolet radiation) in Australia's main cities can be found via the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA)'s real-time UV index.
ANSTO also collects data on ionising radiation from a monitoring station near Lucas Heights, and fine particle pollution on the NSW coast and other locations.
