sydney in august do i take wollies?

Ive just found out that my company is sending me on a business trip to Sydney. I know that its winter there, and Im a bit scared whether its as cold as it is usually here in winter which is very very cold, so cold that you mustnt get out of the house without a hat, earmuffs, gloves, warm bootsSo, how it is in Sydney nowadays and must I take wollies?

You wolly, what wollies are you taking to Sidney? You probably mean woolies. Well, I could give you a tip on that. Im really sorry that you cant choose when to go , since in Sidney now its winter with temperatures from 7-8C the lowest and 17-18C the highest. It can be very unpleasant when strong winds start blowing and also quite chilly. So, I suggest you to bring couple of woolies if youre sensitive to cold. Anyway, I prefer dressing in layers, which means few cotton blouses so that youre pleasant when its cold and that you can easily change if wind isnt blowing. Anyway, check weather report for the end of August. Personally, I think that spring in Sydney is just gorgeous, it starts in September, so youll be able to enjoy it if something unpredictable happens that will delay your business trip.
