Sydney’s warm weather on Saturday is expected to give way to scorching heat and blustery winds on Sunday.
Sydney’s warm start to the October long weekend on Saturday is expected to give way to scorching heat and blustery winds on Sunday, raising the prospect of total fire bans around the city.
Weatherzone meteorologist Corine Brown said Saturday afternoon would be warm and humid, before “very dry” west and north-westerly winds ushered in hot and gusty conditions on Sunday. She said parts of Sydney’s outer west, such as Penrith and Windsor, would likely reach 37 degrees, while areas closer to the city centre might be a few degrees cooler.“The timing of the sea breeze will be pretty crucial in terms of whether it gets into ‘extreme’ territory of 35 degrees or more there.”
“We’re still looking at about 28 and 30 degrees between 7pm and 8pm, and it will be a steady drop in temperature but by the time the game finishes it’s still going to be in the low-20s,” Brown said.for damaging winds in parts of the NSW south coast, Snowy Mountains, southern tablelands, south-west slopes and ACT on Sunday.
