    MORE OF THE SAME FOR WEEKEND

    Not too much is going to change as far as the weather is concerned. Fine, clear, sunny days with cold nights and chilly mornings. Light winds and afternoon coastal seabreezes. This trend is likely to continue for some time, enjoy. Great for boating, small surf for board riders.

    WEATHER: BIGGEST RAIN EVENT OF THE YEAR SO FAR

    It sounds great, but for us, we will receive very little of it. The system is going to make its way across the country and by the time it reaches the east coast, hardly any moisture will be left. Western NSW is going to do very well, and with some luck, the North West will…
