    Firefighters across New South Wales are set for a moderate Christmas, with cooler conditions to keep fire danger to a minimum

    Firefighters across New South Wales are set for a moderate Christmas, with cooler conditions to keep fire danger to a minimum


    Rain is forecast for coastal NSW north of Newcastle on Wednesday, while Sydney will have a 50 per cent chance of rain and a maximum of 26C.

    Easterly winds will also shift lingering haze over the city.

    Most of coastal NSW is under "low-moderate" fire risk, while only one region - the northwestern region - is deemed at "very high" risk.
