The shops have already started to sell Christmas decorations — and we’re all ordering our Christmas presents — so it makes sense that there are already some predictions for what the weather will be like for Christmas Day 2024 in Australia.
Weather you love planning ahead or just plan to rock up on the day, you can’t help but admit it’s pretty darn handy to know if it’s gonna be rain or shine on December 25.
Now, we’re inching close to the date and things are constantly changing, so we’ll keep updating the weather predictions as they pour in.
Taking a peek at what sources like AccuWeather and The Bureau Of Meteorology have to say, it looks like we’re in for a bit of a mixed bag. The long-range forecast currently stretches up to 25 December 2024, so we can get an idea of what Christmas Day 2024 looks like.
Here are the Christmas Day weather forecasts for each capital city:
Christmas Day weather 2024 for Aussie cities
Sydney, New South Wales
Although I wish the Christmas break weather forecast was sunny days across the board, we’ve got a mixed bag in the lead-up to Christmas Day with a couple of rainy days here and there. Thankfully, it appears that December 25 will just be hot and sticky — just like your pits!
- Temperature: High of 27°C, low of 20°C.
- Weather: Intervals of cloud and sun. Mostly humid!
Melbourne, Victoria
For those based in Melbourne, your Christmas day is looking just as sticky topped off with an arvo shower that could develop into a thunderstorm.
- Temperature: High of 28°C, low of 18°C.
- Weather: Cloudy with a shower or thunderstorm in spots in the afternoon.
Adelaide, South Australia
Adelaide is in for a treat this Christmas time (if you love heat). According to AccuWeather, Adelaide besties will cop a very warm Chrissy with loads of sunny periods.
- Temperature: High of 30°C, low of 18°C.
- Weather: Mostly sunny.
Perth, Western Australia
Just like Adelaide, Perth will become a sun-drenched Christmas paradise. The sun is out in full force, but it’s a perfectly reasonable temperature.
- Temperature: High of 29°C, low of 18°C.
- Weather: Mostly sunny and less humid.
Hobart, Tasmania
Tassie’s capital has a slightly cooler Christmas on the cards, and there are some thunderstorms in the week of the 22nd. Christmas Day is going to be a bit dreary outside, but that just means more time inside to stuff yourself full of delicious food.
- Temperature: High of 21°C, low of 14°C.
- Weather: Overcast with occasional showers.
Darwin, Northern Territory
I fear Darwin is gonna be HOT, HOT, HOT for Christmas. Like, you’re gonna be drenched with sweat kinda hot. In the week leading up to Christmas, there’s a mix of sunny and partly cloudy days, with an average high of 35°C and a low of 25°C. I would simply perish.
- Temperature: High of 33°C, low of 25°C.
- Weather: Mostly cloudy with occasional showers in the afternoon.
Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
Canberra will be dry and cloudy, up until the evening! Although it is BRAT summer, locals may need to rug up during the evening though, because the lowest temp is a bit chilly.
- Temperature: High of 28°C, low of 14°C.
- Weather: Mostly cloudy with late rain.
Brisbane, Queensland
Well, Bris-Vegas is getting very pleasant weather for their Christmas pressie, with no rain in sight!
- Temperature: High of 29°C, low of 20°C.

It’s a beaut in Maroochydore on Christmas Day! It looks like it’ll be staying dry, with a mix of sunshine and cloud all day.

Newcastle, New South Wales
Newcastle will be sitting at a beautiful temperature on Christmas Day, but it’s gonna be a mixed bag. Clouds, sunshine, showers and a thunderstorm, you’ve got it all, baby!!!
- Temperature: High of 28°C, low of 19°C
- Weather: Intervals of clouds and sunshine with a couple of showers and a thunderstorm.

It’s looking like Townsville is in for a lovely, sunny day but don’t forget the SPF because the UV levels are shaping up to be pretty damn high.
