Temperatures are expected to hit 34C in the city and 41C in Penrith. “What we will see over the next couple of days are severe to extreme heatwave conditions across particularly the south east parts of NSW,” a bureau of meteorology spokeswoman said. Among the many thousands due to hit the sand, surf and back deck will be small business owner Jessika Pritchard. She said she would will be enjoying her day off to spend time with friends and family.

“Australia Day is really just a chance for me as a young working professional to make time to catch up with family and friends,” Ms Pritchard said.“A day hanging out with loved ones, having a barbecue and a drink, you know the classic Australian dream but for me it’s definitely very family orientated.”“I think it’s meant to be pretty hot so I’ll definitely be kicking back at the beach sometime during the day as well.”
