Sydney set to shiver
If you thought getting out of bed was difficult in Sydney this morning, then you probably won't like tomorrow.
After a warm and sunny Sunday, the mercury dropped last night as a pool of cold air drifted in behind a westerly change.
Temperatures were feeling like five-to-ten degrees at times across Sydney this morning, making the Monday morning commute a bit harder than usual.
While this morning was nippy, tomorrow could be Sydney's coldest autumn morning in 30 years.
The city is currently forecast to reach a low of seven degrees, which would be the coldest May morning in 17 years. If the temperature drops to 6.5 degrees or lower, which is possible, it will be Sydney's coldest May and autumn morning since 1987.
Maximum temperatures in Sydney are forecast to reach 17 to 19 degrees between today and Wednesday. This well-timed cool spell at the end of May could make this the city's coldest final three days of autumn in eight years.
Paradoxically, daytime temperatures will warm up at the start of winter and should reach 20 degrees again by the weekend.
