In summary, some matches may again be affected by some rainfall at some point in the game (including a chance of a storm on Saturday’s matches, and this afternoon and evening in Canberra), however this is expected to have less of an impact than last week.

Showers and thunderstorms are expected around the Canberra
area this afternoon, including some possible rain areas. Heading into this
evening, there is expected to be a general easing trend, however the chance
of rain happening at any time during early evening game remains more likely
than not.
Humidity levels are expected to be low, and should there be no rain during
the game, a moderate to high dew rating is expected in the second half.

The isolated heavy showers currently around Brisbane are
expected to move inland and clear this afternoon, with fine weather this
evening for the Fri night match.
Game temperatures will be warm, along with moderate
humidity levels, but these are unlikely to make an impact upon player comfort
given these are two QLD teams. A moderate dew rating is also expected.

There may be one or two showers or storms moving across
Sydney during Saturday afternoon, however the chance of one of these moving
across Cronulla during the mid afternoon match is relatively low. Game
temperatures will be fairly warm, in the mid to high 20’s, along with low to
moderate humidity levels, however the skies are expected to be fairly cloudy
which will aid in the player comfort not being hugely impacted.

Similar to the earlier match at Cronulla, shower and storm
activity developing to the west of Sydney will also move into the Newcastle
region during the early evening match. Moderate humidity levels will cancel
out the small decrease in temperature compared with the earlier match, with a
small impact on player comfort levels expected during the first two Saturday
matches.

Any isolated shower or storm activity is most likely to have moved north
through the Central Coast/Newcastle area by the start of the match at
Brookvale, however there is still a small chance of any rainfall during the
match.
Moderate humidity levels are expected during the match, which will make a
small impact on player comfort levels. A moderate northeasterly breeze will
limit the amount of dew able to form on the playing surface, with a low to
moderate rating.
