Wake Up Sydney

Wake Up Sydney gets you ready for Sunday, 1 November 2026, with a quick look at the weather, roads and public transport across the city.

Sydney is starting the day mild and muggy, with showers around. The CBD and Parramatta are both heading for 25°C, with Parramatta also a chance of an afternoon storm. Bondi is set to reach about 23°C, with a possible shower by the coast.

On the roads, traffic is looking excellent, with no current incidents reported across the Sydney road network.

For public transport, it is a busier picture due to major weekend trackwork. Buses are replacing trains on parts of the T1 North Shore, T9 Northern, Central Coast & Newcastle, Olympic Park, Leppington and Blue Mountains lines. The Inner West Line is not running, and T3 Bankstown services are reduced to around every 30 minutes.

If you are heading out, check your transport apps before you travel. The Metro between Epping and the city is a strong alternative for many passengers.

Wake Up Sydney brings you the Halloween Saturday update for 31 October 2026, with the latest on weather, traffic and trains across Sydney. It’s a warm, muggy and unsettled day ahead, with showers and possible storms affecting the CBD, Parramatta and Bondi. Temperatures are heading for around 27°C at Bondi and up to 29°C in Parramatta, so if you’re heading out in costume, keep an umbrella close.

On the roads, traffic is generally quiet across Sydney, but there is a crash in Mona Vale on Barrenjoey Road at Grandview Parade. Two of three lanes are closed in both directions, so drivers on the Northern Beaches should slow down, take care and allow extra travel time.
