One thought on “What is the weather like in Melbourne and Sydney during the second week of April?”

  1. In early to mid-April, both Melbourne and Sydney experience the transition from late summer to autumn, resulting in generally mild and pleasant weather.

    Weather:

    • Melbourne: During the second week of April, temperatures typically range from about 10°C (50°F) at night to around 20°C (68°F) during the day. Melbourne can be quite changeable, so it’s wise to prepare for both sunny and rainy days.

    Packing Suggestions:

    • Clothing: Bring light layers. For Melbourne, pack a mix of t-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, and a warm sweater or jacket for cooler evenings. An umbrella or raincoat is also a good idea due to the chance of rain. For Sydney, lighter clothing should suffice, but include a light jacket for the evenings.
