Cool Weather Now Likely.
Cool weather, occasional drizzling rain, and squally winds yesterday brought an abrupt change from the unusually hot April conditions Sydney had experienced earlier in the week.

Cloudy to overcast weather was reported along the coast last night. The Weather Bureau expects this to continue to-day, with probably more rain.
City conditions should be dull, with light showers and moderate temperatures.
