1 INTRODUCTION The heaviest rainfall over Borneo, Sumatra and Malaysia occurs during Boreal winter (December to February [DJF]), although rainfall along coastlines in this region exhibits a seasonal migration from the north (15°–20° N) in October to south of the equator in December to February (Chen et al., 2015).

Patterns in extreme precipitation across the Maritime Continent in Southeast Asia are known to be modulated by many processes, from large-scale modes of variability such as the Madden-Julian Oscillation, to finer-scale mechanisms such as the diurnal cycle. Transient mid-level dry air intrusions are an example of a feature not extensively studied over the Maritime Continent, which has the potential to influence rainfall patterns.
