Sky News Meteorologist Rob Sharpe discusses the weather forecast across the country for Mother's Day.
"Wet weather looks to keep on coming for the east coast, showers coming and going, even potential for beautiful rainbows," Mr Sharpe said.
"Meanwhile, it is sunny and warm for the north, the centre, the southeast and even Perth – despite a cool change a couple of days ago, is still looking at a temperature six degrees above the average for Mother's Day."

Wet weather to hit southeast Queensland and New South Wales on Monday with cold weather to return in Melbourne

Wet weather is expected to return next week to southeast Queensland and New South Wales with residents in Sydney and Brisbane expected to cop the worse of it. Residents in New South Wales will see rain on Monday whilst Brisbane is expected to cop a drenching on Tuesday. Within that rain band, some gauges may see totals between 100-110mm, but it is unclear where it is expected to hit. This weekend, it is expected to be a cold one in Melbourne and Hobart as a cold front sweeps across the southeast of the country, but Perth will be spared the worse of the weather on Saturday breaking a six-week streak of wet weather. Across the weekend, conditions across the capital cities are expected to be mostly settled ahead of a change in the weather next week. On Saturday, Darwin will be mostly overcast with tops of 33C, Brisbane will be sunny with tops of 24C whilst Sydney will have a mostly cloudy start to the day with tops of 18C. Residents in Canberra will wake to a cold start before mostly cloudy skies, with a top of 12 degrees, whilst Melbourne and Hobart will shiver through a cold front with tops of 12. Adelaide will be warm with tops of 14 whilst Perth will be sunny with tops of 20. The sunny weather on Saturday breaks a six week weekend of wet weather for the western Australian capital which saw a 30 year record broken for the wettest winter in the Perth area. But on Sunday, conditions are expected to change as a rain band begins to cross the eastern states, with temperatures falling in Sydney to 17 and a frosty and cold start to the day in Canberra with lows of -4 and highs of 13. Conditions will also be cool in Hobart, Melbourne and Adelaide with a top of 12 in the Victorian and Tasmanian capitals whilst a mostly cloudy but warm day will greet residents in Perth. Brisbane and Darwin will be sunny. Sky News Weather Meteorologist Rob Sharpe said that the rain gauges across the eastern states were expected to be high, but could not pinpoint where the totals were expected to surpass 100mm. 'Somewhere between the Sunshine Coast and Illawarra will almost certainly exceed 100mm next week with even a chance of somewhere notching up more than 150mm," Sharpe said. The Bureau of Meteorology has not issued any weather warnings for the two states and the SES has not issued any flood warnings, but it is expected that warnings could be issued if rivers are likely to peak. However, the BoM has issued a marine wind warning for the Hunter Coast, Sydney Coast, Illawarra Coast, Batemans Coast and Eden Coast for Saturday.
