Sydney residents can expect a sunny weekend with temperatures reaching 33 degrees on Monday, while a severe heatwave warning is in place for Victoria.
Sydney is set for a sunny weekend with temperatures reaching 33 degrees on Monday. While a low-intensity heatwave warning is in place for Sydney and much of NSW, the city will mostly avoid the intense heat forecast for Victoria . The Bureau of Meteorology forecasts temperatures in central Sydney will climb to 31 degrees on Sunday, and again to 33 on Monday. The city’s west will be warmer, with a Monday peak of 39 degrees forecast for Penrith and Blacktown.
A dry and sunny weekend is expected to make way for a forecasted thunderstorm on Monday, bringing a cool and wet change. Thunderstorms aren't going to develop until Monday, when that cooler change comes through brings up a bit of moisture, and that’s when we'll see the showers extending from the south and pushing up the coast through into Tuesday. A severe heatwave warning has been issued on the NSW South Coast, though the region will experience highs only in the high 20s and low 30s. The warnings are based on how high temperatures are above average and over a longer period of time, rather than just the maximum temperature. Meanwhile, Victoria is bracing for a severe heatwave with temperatures expected to reach 40 degrees along the Murray River and northern Victoria
