What drives Tarrawanna’s weather?
Tarrawanna sits on the NSW south coast, about 80 kilometres south of Sydney. Its weather is shaped by the nearby Pacific Ocean and the escarpment to the west. Onshore winds bring humidity and cloud, while westerlies can produce clear, cooler days. The weather radar Wollongong shows real-time rain bands moving in from the sea, so it’s the best tool to track incoming showers.
