Another Sydney stunner after a chilly start

Kim Westcott, Friday March 27, 2015 - 12:49 AEDT

There is more stunning daytime weather in store for Sydneysiders, but the morning chill will set in.

Horsely Park residents shivered through the coldest March morning in seven years, with the coldest temperature recorded as many were leaving for work. For Campbelltown and Badgerys Creek it was the coldest March morning since 2012 as the temperature dropped below double digits. In Terrey Hills, it was the coldest March morning since records began ten years ago, dropping to 10.4 degrees, which is seven degrees below average.

A front in the south is dragging a cold airmass over the state while a large high pressure system will bring settled conditions and mostly sunny skies for the next few days.

For election day tomorrow it will be another chilly start, similar to today. Western areas of Sydney are likely to see temperatures in the single digits again. It will be mostly sunny reaching a max in the low-to-mid 20's with light winds during the day. Sunday morning and afternoon will be a touch warmer, with top temperatures near average in the mid-20's throughout the basin.

For the start of the week, it will be a little easier to get out of bed for the early risers, with overnight temps on the way up. Tuesday will break up the sunny and dry spell, with a few brief showers.
