Check the live forecast above for Kandos today. The weather here can shift quickly due to the town’s position on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, so plan for both sunny spells and sudden showers, especially in spring and autumn.
What is the typical weather pattern for Kandos?
Kandos has a temperate climate with four distinct seasons. Summers are warm, with January highs around 28°C, while winters are cool, often dropping below 2°C overnight. Rainfall is spread fairly evenly through the year, though late spring and early summer tend to be the wettest. The surrounding hills can funnel localised cloud cover, making conditions change faster than in nearby towns like Mudgee or Bathurst.
How does Kandos weather compare to Mudgee and Bathurst?
Kandos sits at a slightly higher elevation than Mudgee, so it tends to be a couple of degrees cooler, especially at night. Bathurst weather is influenced by its plateau location, but Kandos often sees more variable winds and quicker cloud build-up. For a reliable outlook, check the Australia weather hub or look at the Sydney Weather page for broader regional patterns.
How reliable is the 10-day forecast for Kandos?
Forecasts become less precise beyond day 5 in this region due to shifting westerly troughs. The weather in Kandos 10 days outlook gives a general trend, but check the Kandos weather hourly for same-day changes.
Does Kandos get snow?
Light snowfalls occur once or twice a winter, usually when a cold front combines with the elevation. Heavy snow is rare, but surrounding ranges like the Wollemi can see more. For current alerts, see the Severe Weather Warning page.
Where can I find the Kandos weather radar?
The nearest operational radar is at Sydney (Terrey Hills) or Goulburn. For localised rain detection, use the Kandos weather radar feeds on Weatherzone or the Bureau of Meteorology. The weather in Mudgee 10 days can also give a useful comparison.
