Penrith will see a mild, partly cloudy day with temperatures hovering near the figure shown in the live forecast above, before a cooler change arrives tonight. This inland western Sydney suburb often runs a few degrees warmer than the coast, so the afternoon breeze off the Blue Mountains should offer some relief.

Why does Penrith often feel hotter than Sydney’s eastern suburbs?
Penrith sits on the western edge of the Cumberland Plain, well inland from the coast. Sea breezes that cool the CBD rarely reach this far west, especially in summer and early autumn. That’s why you’ll often see a 5–8 °C difference on the penrith weather hourly charts compared to Bondi. The penrith weather radar 128 km loop on the Bureau’s site is useful for tracking any storm cells building over the mountains.
Will it rain in Penrith this week?
Only a slight chance of a shower on Wednesday afternoon, otherwise mostly dry. The bom penrith 7 days outlook suggests less than 1 mm for the rest of the week. A better chance of rain arrives over the weekend.
Is there any severe weather risk?
No current warnings for the Penrith area. However, if you’re checking the penrith weather 30 days outlook, keep an eye on our Severe Weather Warning page during summer for thunderstorm alerts that can develop rapidly over the mountains.
