A series of cold fronts over the past week brought decent snowfall. Spencers Creek in the Snowy Mountains had a 75-centimetre base on Thursday, the most for this early in the season since 2000.

Fresh falls, though, are likely to be very limited before another front moves across at the end of next week.

Clear skies are likely to make Saturday the pick of the days in Sydney over the next week, with a top of 20 degrees predicted. Conditions are likely to remain dry apart from the odd shower until about Wednesday, the Bureau of Meteorology said.

Apart from a predicted top of 15 degrees on Sunday, most days should reach 17 degrees, or bang on the average June maximum.

A soggy start to this week lifted the city's rainfall totals for June to 143.2 millimetres - topping the average of 133.2 millimetres. March is the only other month in the past 12 to have exceeded rainfall averages in Sydney.

Warragamba Dam, the city's biggest reservoir, is down about 22 per cent in the past year, and was 72 per cent full as of Friday, WaterNSW said.
