Perfect weather for City2Surf

James Casey, Saturday August 13, 2016 - 16:26 AEST

Sunny skies will greet thousands of runners tomorrow morning to
take part in Sydney's most popular road running race.

It will be a bit brisk in the morning as competitors warm up, with
the temperature expected to cool below 8 degrees in the early
morning, a degree below average. A cool westerly breeze will make
it feel a few degrees colder too, so best to bring a jacket to
wear before the gun goes off.

As the day wears on the temperature will climb to a pleasant 19
degrees. Winds will remain light but swing around to the southwest
creating a bit of a headwind for those finishing at Bondi. The UV
index will be moderate, so remember to slip slop slap.

Sydney's sunny winter weather is expected to continue into the
start of the week before cloud and showers could make an
appearance around Wednesday.

Generation gone with the wind
