Severe weather warnings in five states in warm, windy start to the week
Maximum temperatures in the low-to-mid-twenties can be expected for all southeastern capital cities this Monday, as a surge of warm air from the interior blankets the region ahead of a cold front due on Tuesday. Strong, potentially damaging wind gusts will accompany the warmth, with severe weather warnings issued for all four southeastern states plus the ACT. Predicted maximum temperatures for the southeastern capitals this Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are: Adelaide: 25°C, 17°C, 17°C Melbourne: 24°C, 19°C, 16°C Hobart: 23°C, 17°C, 13°C Canberra: 21°C, 21°C, 17°C Sydney: 26°C, 28°C, 23°C Showers can be expected later today in Adelaide, from this evening through into Tuesday in Melbourne, and on Tuesday in Canberra. Only a light shower is possible in Hobart on Tuesday, with no rain at all likely over the period in Sydney – which locals will appreciate after last week’s wettest September day in 146 years. Away from the capitals, the September temperature see-saw will be most pronounced in forecast districts like the Murraylands and Riverland in South Australia, and the Mallee in NW Victoria, where Monday’s maximum should be a full ten degrees warmer than Tuesday’s. The weather pattern for the first half of this week is typical for early spring in southern Australia, when wintry cold fronts still regularly flick Tasmania and the far south of the mainland, with periods of warmth between the cooler systems.

Strong, gusty winds are another classic early spring feature of the weather at present, with a severe weather warning for damaging winds in place for residents in numerous forecast districts in Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, southern NSW, and the ACT. The BoM's threshold for issuing these warnings is when gusts may exceed 90 km/h on the mainland or 100 km/h in Tasmania.

Wet and windy weekend for the west
Australia’s southwest corner is currently under the influence of a pair of winter-like cold fronts sweeping across the region, with a broad area of southwest and western WA under a severe weather warning and a coastal hazard warning. The current severe weather warning is for damaging winds, which are expected to be a significant feature of the second cold front as it sweeps through the southwest. As of 10am, there have already been some damaging wind gusts recorded across coastal and near-coastal areas, including: 102km/h at Cape Leeuwin 98km/h at Busselton Jetty 96km/h at Cape Naturaliste 95km/h at Rottnest Island 82km/h at Mandurah 80km/h at Gooseberry Hill Winds are expected to be peaking this morning along the west and southwest coast as the cold front crosses, then later in the day further inland and for the south coast as the front progresses towards the east, possibly gusting as high as 100km/h for some areas. Image: Forecast wind gusts on Sunday afternoon for southwest WA according to ACCESS-C Perth model The first cold front that crossed on Saturday served up some decent rainfall, with widespread totals of 15-30mm recorded for areas between Perth and Albany. The highest totals in the 24 hours to 9am include: 42mm at Jarrahdale 36mm at Glen Eagle and Mt Solus 32mm at Scott River 31mm at Bungendore The second cold front is already bringing further scattered showers and some thunderstorms, putting a dampener on any outdoor plans. Overall, similar totals to Saturday’s rainfall are expected for today, with widespread weekend totals of 40-60mm a good chance. Image: Rainfall forecast for Sunday across southwest WA according to ACCESS-C Perth model Despite the first cold front having already passed, Saturday night was quite balmy, with temperatures staying around 10-15°C across most of southwest WA overnight. Indeed, Perth’s lowest overnight temperature was 14.6°C, nearly 5 degrees above the September average. The balmy conditions will be short lived though, as the second front drags up particularly chilly air from the Southern Ocean. Much of southwest WA will reach their maximum temperature in the morning ahead of the cold front, before becoming progressively colder during the afternoon. Gusty southwesterly winds and showers will also make it feel bitterly cold across many locations, particularly for the south.

Maximum daytime temperature forecasts for Monday include: 26 degrees in Sydney 24 degrees in Melbourne 26 degrees in Brisbane 23 degrees in Adelaide 22 degrees in Hobart 21 degrees in Canberra This widespread warmth will be caused by a broad area of northerly winds, which will be present across much of eastern Australia ahead of an approaching cold front. The front will be a slow-moving feature, allowing some capitals to see a period of extended warmth early next week. Melburnians can expect a pronounced peak in temperatures on Monday ahead of the front followed by dramatically cooler conditions on Tuesday. Image: 7-day forecast for Melbourne Sydneysiders will be treated to a pair of standout warm days on Monday and Tuesday before the front arrives.
