The cyclone season across northern Australia begins on 1 November and runs through to April. 23 November 2026 falls inside this seasonal window for the tropical north, while the southern states move into the warmer, drier conditions of late spring ahead of summer's official start on 1 December.
The week containing Monday 23 November 2026 is counted from this date under the standard week-numbering convention used on this page, with weeks running Monday to Sunday rather than Sunday to Saturday. This convention affects rostering, payroll cycles and any planning done in weekly blocks across Australian workplaces that pay staff or schedule shifts on a weekly basis.
The quarter containing 23 November 2026 is based on the calendar year running January to December, a separate system from the Australian financial year, which runs from 1 July to 30 June and splits into its own four quarters. Businesses often track both systems side by side, one for tax filings and one for calendar-year planning.
