THE last week of August gave us some interesting weather with a series of upper and lower troughs bringing storms and some much needed rain to our region.
The next month will once again be mostly dry with only a few rain systems moving through our region.
There is a chance of some light rain at the start of the month.
Cold fronts moving through are expected to bring more rain and showers around 7 to 11 September, and 22 to 26 September.
The El Nino is still strengthening and will continue to influence our weather patterns until the end of this year.
Although dry weather and drought is expected there is a chance of some heavier falls moving across from the west due to the Indian Ocean staying neutral.
The cold nights are mostly gone as modelling indicates warmer than average temperatures during September.
On average, daytime temperatures should be in the mid to high 20s and overnight temps in the low teens.
Frost is not expected at any time during September.
