Weather, in plain English
Bureau of MeteorologyDaily outlook, temperatures and rainfall for the week ahead.

No forecast loaded. Forecasts are separate from design rainfall inputs.
Reading your forecast
Chance of rain is the forecast likelihood of rain for the day. Rainfall amount is the range supplied by BOM. Missing values are shown as unavailable, not zero.
Forecasts can change. Check the issue time and use BOM for current warnings.
