Weather For Sunday

HomeWeatherWeather For Sunday

Live forecasts update automatically; written guidance last reviewed 23 June 2026 by the Oz Reviewly Weather Desk. Data from the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) and other national met services via Open-Meteo.

Check the live forecast above for your Sunday’s conditions at your specific location. Plan outdoor activities around the predicted high, low, wind speed, and rain chance – these numbers change throughout the day.

What will Sunday feel like across Australia?

Coastal cities tend to be milder than inland areas. For Sunday, Sydney often sees a sea breeze that drops the temperature by a few degrees in the afternoon. Melbourne can be changeable – watch for a cool change if the live forecast shows a sharp temperature drop later in the day. Brisbane and Perth usually have warm, sunny conditions, while Adelaide may get a hot northerly wind before a southerly change arrives.

How to plan your Sunday

If the live forecast shows a UV index of 3 or above, wear sunscreen and a hat even if clouds are present. Rain probabilities under 30% usually mean dry conditions – but check the hourly breakdown. Wind speeds above 30 km/h can make coastal swimming risky; head to a sheltered beach or bay. For a longer view, look at weather melbourne 14 days or weather perth 14 days to see if a pattern is forming for next weekend.

Is Sunday a good day for a beach trip?

If the live forecast shows light winds and a UV index below 8, it’s usually safe. Check for any beach closures or stingers in northern waters.

Will it rain on Sunday?

Rain probability under 20% means you can leave the umbrella at home. Between 30–60%, a short shower is possible – keep a plan B for outdoor events.

What should I wear on Sunday?

For most capitals, layers work best – a light jacket or sweater for morning coolness that you can remove by midday. In Perth or Brisbane, shorts and a T‑shirt are fine almost year‑round.
