Live data from Open-Meteo · updates automatically ·

Maffra’s skies are expected to remain mostly sunny through the morning, with the live forecast above showing a light south-westerly breeze and a top near the low-to-mid twenties—a settled start for the Macalister River town before a possible coastal change later.

What’s driving today’s conditions in Maffra?

A high‑pressure ridge over the Bass Strait is keeping Maffra largely clear, though a weak trough sliding east across Gippsland may bring a few afternoon clouds. The real shift arrives overnight when a cooler south‑easterly change nudges in from the coast, dropping temperatures a few degrees by Friday. For the latest on any developing systems, check the severe weather warning page.

How does Maffra’s inland location affect its weather?

Sitting inland from the Ninety Mile Beach and east of the Latrobe Valley, Maffra misses the immediate cooling of Bass Strait sea breezes. That means summer days often climb a notch higher than nearby Sale, while winter nights can dip sharply under clear skies. For a broader picture across the state, see the Melbourne weather hub or compare with Australia weather forecasts.
