The live forecast above shows current conditions for Hargraves, a locality in central-west New South Wales near Mudgee. Expect mostly sunny skies with a mild west to north-westerly breeze, typical for this time of year.
What is the typical weather pattern for Hargraves?
Hargraves sits in a transition zone between the Central Tablelands and the western slopes, giving it warm summers and cool winters. Winter overnight lows often drop to around 2°C, while summer afternoons can reach the mid-30s. The area experiences most of its rainfall in late spring and summer, often from afternoon thunderstorms. For neighbouring towns such as Yeoval, the pattern is similar, though local topography can cause small differences in temperature and rainfall.
How can I track changes in the weather?
Because localised showers and storm cells can develop quickly, using a weather radar NSW feed is the most reliable way to see what is heading towards Hargraves. The Bureau of Meteorology’s radar at Hill End (about 30 km north-west) covers this area well. A storm tracker NSW tool can also alert you to approaching severe thunderstorm warnings. For a broader outlook, check the main Australia weather hub for state-wide trends and the Severe Weather Warning page for any alerts that may affect Hargraves.
Does Hargraves get snow in winter?
Snow is rare at Hargraves’ elevation. Frost is common on clear winter mornings, and light snow may fall once or twice a decade, typically when a cold front drops the temperature to near zero overnight.
Is the weather in Yeoval similar to Hargraves?
Yes, Yeoval is about 40 km west of Hargraves at a similar elevation. Both share a semi‑continental climate with warm summers, cold nights, and most rain falling in spring and summer. Localised storms can affect one but not the other.
How reliable is the Hill End weather radar for Hargraves?
The Hill End radar (60 km north‑west) provides good coverage of Hargraves for detecting rain and storms. The beam may overshoot low‑level showers, but it remains the best weather radar NSW tool for this area.
