Weather Update
This Saturday, December 6, 2025, Sydney is bracing for scorching temperatures, with the mercury soaring up to 39 degrees Celsius. Areas like Parramatta will feel the heat even more intensely. Fortunately, a partly cloudy forecast offers a touch of respite for Bondi Beachgoers, and expect cooler, more tolerable weather by Sunday. So, gear up for a hot day ahead and plan wisely!
Traffic Alert
If you're hitting the roads, be advised of a breakdown in the Sydney Harbour Tunnel's southbound lane at Milsons Point, which could cause delays. It's a good idea to allocate some extra travel time to avoid any stress.
Train News
On the train front, operations are running smoothly. However, as the heat intensifies, remember to stay hydrated. Also, a heads up for travelers: platform maintenance at Berala and Minto stations begins on December 8. Plan your commute accordingly to avoid disruptions.
Festive Fun
As the city buzzes with lively festive activities, from crowded beaches to air-conditioned galleries, there's no shortage of Christmas events to enjoy across Sydney. It's the perfect time to soak up the local festive spirit.
