Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth weather: How cold it will get in your city
A series of powerful cold fronts will bring rain, damaging winds, thunderstorms and snow to multiple states and territories across Australia this week. It follows a freezing end to the weekend in Sydney, with Penrith recording its coldest morning in four years on Sunday as temperatures dipped to -0.3C. Camden and Campbelltown recorded lows of -2.1C and -0.5C respectively. Further east, residents at Sydney Olympic Park woke to just 2.8C – the coldest morning there in two years. 'We've had the high-pressure systems come over some still air... and it was just able to settle cold temperatures that are continuing,' the Bureau of Meteorology's Morgan Pumpa explained. 'Wednesday through to even possibly Sunday or Monday does look very cold.' According to Weatherzone, two major cold fronts and their associated low-pressure systems will move west to east across the country this week. The first cold front arrived on Monday morning, bringing a cold, wet and windy start to the week in Western Australia. Perth could struggle to reach 15C on Monday, which would make it the city's coldest day so far this year. This front will push into South Australia on Monday before sweeping across southeastern Australia on Tuesday. Blustery winds, rain and cold air will follow across the southern half of the country from Monday to Wednesday, Weatherzone said. Damaging wind warnings are already in place for parts of SA and Victoria, with potential warnings for NSW and Tasmania in the coming days. This front will also interact with a low-pressure trough over eastern Australia, generating widespread rain and thunderstorms across NSW and Queensland on Tuesday and Wednesday. The second cold front is due to reach southwestern WA on Wednesday, then move across SA and central Australia on Friday, before hitting southeastern and eastern Australia over the weekend. It's expected to form a large low-pressure system that will pull in tropical moisture, potentially creating a vast northwest cloudband. 'This setup has the potential to generate a massive northwest cloudband that will soak part of every state and territory in the second half of this week.' In addition to widespread rain, the second front may bring more damaging winds to southern parts of the country and snow to the Alps – with even a chance of snow flurries in southern WA on Thursday. 'The combined influence of this week's cold fronts and low pressure systems will deliver a decent amount of rain to part of every state and territory in Australia between now and the weekend. 'Due to the eastward movement of these weather systems, the bulk of this rain will fall on and west of the Great Dividing Range. 'This means that the Murray-Darling Basin and many thirsty agricultural areas of SA, Tas, Vic and WA will also see a good drop of rain in the next seven days.' Perth Tuesday: Showers. Min 7C.
