Ashmore and Cartier Islands Touristic Information. Historical Background. The climate is monsoonal with a prevailing westerly and northwesterly rain bearing monsoon from November to March and dry southeasterly trade winds from May to September. No rainfall figures are available. Ashmore reef lies to the north of the main belt of tropical cyclones which form in the Timor sea, mostly between January and March and generally move to the south west Between 1975 and 1992 only five passed close to it compared with ten which passed within 1 of Rowley Shoals. Reef morphology indicates that the prevailing swell is from the south rather than from the west or south west as at Rowley Shoals and Scott Reef.
