We can expect a return to some sunny skies this weekend as the winter school holidays get underway, although the forecast is for a possible shower on Sunday morning.

Saturday is the pick of the weekend with a top of 20 degrees, following a cold 5-degree start to the day. On Sunday, there is a 30% chance of a shower, but only 1mm, and that is most likely in the morning, with a warm 22 degrees as the top temperature.

Any activity next week will be done under clear blue skies.

There is quite a bit of activity to get involved in this weekend, ranging from markets, live music and an Italian Festival.

The Lismore Farmers Markets get things underway at the Lismore Showgrounds from 7:30am tomorrow.

Locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables, honey, meat, hot breakfast, tea and coffee and live music from Malcolm Gladstone will be happening until 11:30am.

The 'Through the Heart' photographic exhibition by Jacklyn Wagner can be viewed at the Lismore Regional Gallery from 10am to 4pm over the weekend.

Through the Heart captures human stories from the catastrophic February and March floods in 2022. It runs until Sunday, August 10.
