Live data from Open-Meteo · updates automatically ·

Footscray’s conditions are clear from the live forecast above — a mild morning giving way to a partly cloudy afternoon with a gentle south-westerly breeze. The day’s temperature sits comfortably in the low-to-mid twenties, typical for late summer.

What’s making the forecast shift?

A weak trough moving across Victoria is nudging cloud cover into the western suburbs, though no serious rain is expected until later in the week. For a complete picture across the state, check the Melbourne weather page, which includes regional trends affecting Footscray. If you’re after a more granular view, Australia’s weather hub links to local radars and hour-by-hour updates.

How does Footscray compare to nearby suburbs?

West Footscray weather often runs a degree or two cooler than the city centre due to its proximity to the Maribyrnong River. Meanwhile, those monitoring Adelaide weather will see a similar pattern of drying out later in the week — a reminder that southern systems often travel east. For detailed hourly changes, the footscray weather hourly data on the BOM app is your best bet.

Where can I find the footscray weather radar?

What’s the outlook for weather in footscray 10 days?

Long-range models suggest a warming trend into next week, with a possible cool change around day seven. The footscray weather bom 7-day forecast is more reliable; the 10-day projection should be treated as a general guide only.

How does this compare with previous days?

Yesterday’s maximum was 27°C under mostly clear skies. Today’s cloudier conditions are typical of a trough moving through — nothing out of the ordinary for late summer in Melbourne’s west.
