Australia Day around the capitals

Kim Westcott, Sunday January 25, 2015 - 14:30 AEDT

It will be beach and BBQ's for some, cool and cloudy for others...

Brisbane will remain warm with an expected top of 35 degrees. A sea
breeze and a few showers will cool things down in the afternoon, but
high humidity will begin creep into the city in the afternoon and
evening.

For Sydney, a sharp contrast from the near-perfect Sunday.
Temperatures will be at least 10-15 degrees cooler, with clouds and
showers thrown into the mix. Canberra will suffer a similar fate,
with showers and temperatures in the low-to-mid twenties and
remaining cool for a majority of the week.

In Melbourne, a cool air mass will remain over the city with a
daytime maximum of 21 degrees. Brisk southerly winds and a few
showers will make staying indoors a good option. Over the week the
mercury will to struggle reach over 23 degrees.

Cool and breezy conditions will continue in Hobart. Moderate westerly
winds in the wake of a front will see temperatures failing to hit the
20 degree mark.

Adelaide residents can expect a mostly sunny day in the mid-twenties
with a perfect BBQ weather set to continue as the temperatures set to
gradually increase in the coming days.

A hot and sunny day is ahead for Perth, with the high thirties likely
during the day and remaining in twenties during the evening. Tomorrow
will be the first in a three-day stretch of scorching days for the
western capital.

Darwin can expect similar weather for a majority of the week with
warm, stormy and humid conditions set to continue.
