Over the coming week, a slow-moving trough will bring unsettled conditions to eastern Australia, with showers and thunderstorms likely for Sydney and Brisbane, while Adelaide and Perth enjoy mostly fine, stable weather under high pressure.

What’s the outlook for your city?

For weather 7 days across the major capitals, the pattern is split. Sydney and Brisbane see a few days of cloud and patchy rain, particularly midweek, before clearing by the weekend. Melbourne’s weather remains changeable, with a cool front passing through on Wednesday bringing a brief dip in temperatures. Adelaide stays dry and mild for most of the week, while Perth’s weather perth 14 days outlook shows a warming trend into next week, with highs nearing the low thirties.

Will the rain spread further?

If you’re checking weather in melbourne 10 days or weather 7 days adelaide, the good news is that most of the southern capitals avoid significant rainfall. The trough’s influence is strongest over Queensland and northern New South Wales, where weather 7 days brisbane shows a higher chance of afternoon storms. For those looking at weather melbourne 14 days, expect a return to more settled conditions after the midweek front passes.

What’s the best day for outdoor plans in Sydney?

Saturday looks the pick of the week, with mostly sunny skies and a top of 25°C. The midweek rain should clear by Friday, leaving a dry weekend for coastal walks or harbour activities.

Is the heatwave over for Perth?

Not quite — after a brief reprieve, temperatures climb back above 30°C from Friday. The weather perth 14 days forecast suggests a consistent warm spell, so keep the sunscreen handy if you’re heading out.

Will Melbourne see any severe weather?

No severe warnings are expected for Melbourne this week. The cool front on Wednesday is a standard autumn change, bringing gusty winds but no dangerous conditions. Check Severe Weather Warning for any updates.
