Rain will threaten Easter Sunday lunches around Sydney as the long-weekend's run of perfect weather looks set to come to an end.Â
According to the Bureau of Meteorology up to 5 millimetres of rain could hit Sydney from 1pm before clearing in the evening as the temperature hovers around the mid-20s.Â
The first two days of Easter brought about a welcome relief from Sydney's drenching last week, with the delayed shift in seasons bringing in 86 millimetres in two days and a sharp drop in temperatures.

The wet looks set to return overnight, with the Bureau predicting a high chance of showers on Monday morning and afternoon.

The Bureau's five-day-forecast also predicts a wet post-Easter week for those returning to work on Tuesday, with rain sticking around until Thursday along Sydney's coast.Â
Temperatures will remain high with 28 degrees hitting Sydney on Friday, two days into April, the top predicted temperature of the week.
