Rain in Sydney and Brisbane on election day

As Aussies gear up to cast their votes on election day, some need to be more prepared than others because of what Mother Nature has in store.

Not all will be fair as millions of Aussies head to election booths across the country to cast their votes on Saturday.

Some states will be bathing in sunlight, while others face heavy rain and thunderstorms.

Sydneysiders face the possibility of showers and should remember their umbrellas and raincoats as they venture out to cast their votes, as the chance of rain is predicted to be 40 per cent.

Rain is most likely in the morning, and there is also a chance of fog in the outer west, so drivers should remain vigilant if setting out in the early hours of the day.

Temperatures will be up to 23C, with a light breeze that will ease in the afternoon.

Australia’s Sunshine State will also not be so sunny, as Brisbane faces a shower or two on election day as well.

Aussies face varying weather as they head out to the polls on Saturday.

The chance of rain in Brisbane is at 60 per cent, and southerly winds up to 35km/h are also predicted.

On the opposite coast, West Australians will be enjoying a sunny day with temperatures up to 35C that will surely keep the democracy sausage BBQs running late into the day.

Darwin is in a similar boat, with a mostly sunny day and 34C.

Adelaideans and Melbournians will also be able to enjoy a mostly sunny day, with temperatures up to 25C and 22C, respectively.

Hobart and Canberra residents are in for clear skies but much lower temperatures of 19-20C.
