Sydney is expected to experience a hot start to spring, with temperatures forecast to reach 33C. A total fire ban is in place for Greater Sydney due to extreme fire danger exacerbated by hot and windy conditions.
The warm weather is part of a broader trend across eastern Australia, with Brisbane and Sydney potentially recording their highest early September temperatures. In Sydney, the maximum temperatures during the first days of September are on track to match the city's midsummer average of 26.4C, according to The Guardian Australia.
This warm start to spring would be the warmest since records began at Sydney's Observatory Hill station in 1858. Meanwhile, snow is expected in southern New South Wales.
