Where can I find the latest BOM updates?

Check the weather radar for real-time rain movement near your location. For detailed city forecasts, visit the BOM weather Australia page. The weather today section also provides hourly breakdowns for coastal areas.

How often does the BOM update today’s forecast?

The BOM issues a full forecast at 5am, 11am, and 4pm local time. Between these, automated observations and radar data refresh every 10 minutes. Check the live conditions above for the most current readings.

Why does bom weather Melbourne differ from Sydney today?

A cold front moving across Victoria is causing showers in Melbourne, while a high-pressure system over the Tasman Sea keeps Sydney dry. This pattern is typical for late spring, with Melbourne more exposed to southern changes.

Can I trust the BOM forecast for outdoor plans today?

Yes, the BOM’s today forecast is reliable for general planning, but always check the severe weather warning page for sudden changes. Coastal winds and afternoon storms can shift quickly, so monitor radar updates.
