Episode Details

Wake Up Sydney kicks off Monday, 21 September 2026, with Johnny Rocket bringing you the latest on Sydney’s weather, roads, and public transport. It’s a mild start across the city, with a warm and slightly unsettled day ahead. The Sydney CBD is sitting around 21.9°C on the way to 28°C, Parramatta starts at 19.1°C with a top of 29°C, while Bondi is already a warmer 25.3°C, heading for 26°C. A shower or two is possible, and Bondi is expected to become windy later, so keep an umbrella or light jacket handy. On the roads, commuters should watch for two breakdowns causing lane closures. At St Peters, a truck breakdown is affecting the M8 Motorway westbound on-ramp from Campbell Road, with lane two of two closed. At Roseville Chase, a car breakdown on Warringah Road northbound just past Roseville Bridge has closed lane one of three. Drivers are urged to slow down, merge safely, and allow extra time. There’s better news for public transport users, with Sydney Trains and Metro operating normally and no incidents reported. Johnny calls it the ideal Monday morning commute: tap on, sit down, and enjoy the ride.
