Humpty Doo has a tropical savannah climate with a wet season from November to April, featuring high temperatures, humidity and thunderstorms, and a dry season from May to October with sunny days and cooler nights.
The origin is uncertain; possible explanations include the army slang “umpty” used in Morse code, a colloquial phrase meaning “everything done wrong”, or the Aboriginal term Umdidu meaning “popular resting place”.
The Djerimanga (also known as Wulna) people are recognised as the traditional owners and first inhabitants of the region that now includes Humpty Doo.
