Summer is off to a soggy start, as rain continues to pour down on many parts of the country today. Yesterday, the east coast was drenched, and it seems like the first day of December will bring a little more drizzle before moving on tomorrow. It's not just the east coast facing the rainy weather, as most capital cities are expecting showers today. In Brisbane, a storm is brewing, while Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra are also in for some rain.
For those living in Sydney, the morning started off with a thick blanket of fog covering the city. The western suburbs, like Penrith, were especially affected, with visibility reduced to less than 100 meters on the busy M4 motorway. Drivers were reminded to take caution and turn on their headlights. Luckily, the fog is not expected to cause any disruptions at the airport, and the Bureau of Meteorology predicts it will clear up by mid-morning.
But it's not just Sydney facing foggy conditions. Melbourne, Canberra, and Brisbane may also experience low visibility and low clouds, causing potential disruptions. This morning, drivers in Melbourne and Canberra had to navigate through heavy downpours and fog, with visibility dropping to just a few hundred meters. Similarly, Brisbane drivers may face similar challenges on Monday morning due to the heavy rain.
According to Weatherzone, the weather system responsible for the rain and fog may bring even more thick fog on Monday morning in the eastern states. Additionally, the Bureau of Meteorology issued a severe weather warning for large parts of Tasmania this morning, as heavy rain and damaging winds are expected to batter the state's south-east. The downpour could even lead to flash flooding in the region, with the bureau warning that six-hour totals could potentially reach 125mm. It's important to stay informed and be prepared for the unpredictable weather.
