The BOM has a long and proud history. We have been monitoring and forecasting the weather in Australia for over 150 years.

The origins of the BOM can be traced back to the 1860s, when the Colonial Meteorological Department was established in each of the Australian colonies. These departments were responsible for providing weather services to their respective colonies.

In 1908, the Commonwealth Government assumed responsibility for meteorology and the Commonwealth Meteorological Bureau was established. The Bureau was responsible for providing weather services to the whole of Australia.

In 1975, the Bureau was renamed the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.
