How does Calderwood’s location influence its weather?

Calderwood sits in the northern Illawarra, about 10 km inland from the coast. This means it often records 2–3°C warmer daytime highs than nearby wollongong weather due to the absence of direct sea-breeze cooling. The surrounding escarpment can also trap moisture, leading to patchy fog on winter mornings. The nearest BOM weather station is at Albion Park, which provides the calderwood weather radar loop for real-time precipitation tracking.
