Why does the Northern Territory seem to have 2 seasons?
This question does not apply to the whole of the Northern Territory. The usual four seasons of summer, autumn, winter and spring are not clearly marked in the northern part of the Northern Territory, because the "Top End", as it is called, lies in the tropical zone. It has two clear seasons - 'wet'(from about October to March) and 'dry', because it is subject to the weather influences in the Timor and Arafura seas. The indigenous people actually recognise six seasons in the Top End. The inland part of the Northern territory clearly has four distinct seasons. Being away from the coast, the cold winters are much more marked, and the summers are searingly hot.
