Check the live forecast above before heading out in Calderwood – it shows the same conditions that affect the broader Wollongong area.

What is typical for Calderwood’s weather?
Calderwood sits in the Illawarra region, sharing its temperate climate with mild winters and warm, humid summers. The coast moderates extremes, but being slightly inland can mean cooler mornings and less direct sea breeze. Rainfall is fairly evenly spread, so the radar is useful year-round, especially from spring to autumn when afternoon storms are more common.
Where can you check the local radar?
The Bureau of Meteorology’s Wollongong radar is the most reliable tool for Calderwood. It captures approaching fronts and showers across the entire area. Third-party sites such as Weatherzone and Elders also provide radar loops. For any developing dangerous weather, check the latest severe weather warnings on our site.
Is Calderwood weather very different from Wollongong?
Not significantly – both are in the same Illawarra climate zone. Calderwood is a little higher and further inland, so overnight temperatures can be slightly cooler and the coastal wind is weaker, but the day-to-day forecast is almost identical.
Can the Wollongong radar show rain at Calderwood?
Yes. The Wollongong radar covers Calderwood well. You can watch the radar loop on the live forecast above or on the Bureau of Meteorology site to see exactly when showers are likely to reach the suburb.
What time of year is best for Calderwood Golf?
Autumn (March–May) and spring (September–November) offer mild temperatures and lower rainfall. Summer can be humid with afternoon storms, while winter mornings can be crisp – fine for a round if you dress warmly.
