Wake Up Sydney with Johnny Rocket gets you set for Tuesday, 22 September 2026, with a cool, grey and drizzly start across Sydney. Weather: It’s shaping up to be a cool, wet day with showers increasing across the city. The Sydney CBD is sitting around 16°C and heading for a top of 19°C, Parramatta starts near 14°C with a top of 18°C, and Bondi is around 16°C, also reaching 18°C. Don’t forget the umbrella, wear a few layers, and go for closed-in shoes if you’re heading out. Traffic: Drivers in the south should watch for delays at Engadine, where a car breakdown is affecting Heathcote Road approaching the Princes Highway. Eastbound traffic is impacted, with lane two of three closed. Emergency services and Transport for NSW are on site, so slow down, merge carefully and allow extra time. Trains: The Central Coast and Newcastle Line is facing significant delays due to vandalism at Dora Creek. Passengers should allow an extra 10 to 15 minutes, with trains possibly stopping longer than usual and stopping patterns changing at short notice. Repair crews are working on the issue, and commuters are urged to check transport apps and listen for station announcements. The rest of the Sydney train network is reported to be running normally.
