Is it going to be ho ho hot?

With Christmas Day now less than a week away, the Bureau of Meteorology has finally been able to release its official forecast.

While it will be warm on the Gold Coast, it does look like the city is in for a few showers and even a possible thunderstorm.

“It will be a varied Christmas Day across the country, with cool conditions across much of the south-east compared to an expected hot day in Perth, and hot and stormy conditions for much of the Northern Territory,” BOM said.

“Showers and storms are forecast for large parts of Queensland, including the south-east, and the tropical north”.

According to the weather bureau, the mercury is tipped to soar to a partly cloudy top of 30 degrees on Christmas Eve before climbing a degree hotter to 31C on Christmas Day.

While we are expected to see some showers, it’s not expected to be anything too heavy at this stage!

“It is important to note that the forecast may change as Christmas Day approaches and our weather forecasts are refined,” BOM said.
