It has been 45 years since Sydney has been as warm this late in autumn, bathing in 26-degree sunshine for the fourth day running. In the past 150 years the city has only once been this warm this late in the season. In 1968 it reached at least 26 degrees in the four days from 28th April to 1st May.
A big plus for many people is that this summer-like warmth, minus the humidity, covered most of the unofficial long Anzac weekend and final weekend of the school holidays. It was also not too bad for those who have had to put up with a standard two-day weekend. Both Saturday and Sunday reaching at least 26 degrees has not occurred this late in autumn since 1990.
