Bureau of Meteorology forecasts cool change for eastern seaboard

Millions of Aussies who have spent the last few days experiencing a heatwave can soon look forward to cooler temperatures throughout the week.

Aussies battling a brutal few days of heat will welcome a cool change from Sunday as temperatures ease.

The Bureau of Meteorology forecast cooler weather will reach Victoria and Tasmania from 9pm on Sunday.

“A cool change will bring relief from the heat to southeast Australia from later today reaching western Victoria and Tasmania this evening,” the Bureau stated.

“The change won’t reach Melbourne until the overnight period.”

However, other parts of the eastern seaboard won’t start to feel the effects of the cool change until at least late Monday.

“The cool change will take longer to sweep up the east coast resulting in another hot day for NSW on Monday,” the Bureau stated.

“Cooler weather will extend up the east coast during Tuesday.

“A wet period will follow the change, with rain for many areas on Monday and Tuesday.”

It comes as heatwave warnings remain in place for parts of Western Australia, NSW, Victoria and Tasmania.
