Western Australia's first month of spring was anything but straightforward.

The state experienced a mixed bag of weather, from unusually heavy rain inland to sudden bursts of summer-like heat.

The month began against the backdrop of a notably dry winter for a large part of the state.

The first major downpour didn't deliver the rain to Perth or the South West, but hundreds of kilometres inland.

A slow-moving trough drew tropical moisture into the Goldfields and the Interior, producing widespread cloud, rain and thunderstorms across the area.
