The Bureau of Meteorology reports that Adelaide and the broader South Australian region will experience a mixed bag of weather patterns over the next few days. Today, Adelaide can expect a mostly sunny day with a maximum temperature of 22 degrees, and little to no rain expected.
Looking ahead, the weather over the weekend won’t be as bright. Saturday has temperatures anticipated to reach a maximum of 25 degrees from a mild minimum of 14 degrees, with a chance of storms. These conditions are forecasted to continue on Sunday with storms in the morning and temperatures peaking at 21 degrees after a low of 16.
The start of the week will see more showers on Monday, but some sunnier, dryer conditions through to Wednesday. Temperatures will stay consistent with Monday to Wednesday’s highs staying around 21 degrees, warming up to 25 degrees on Thursday.
Today, weather conditions are affected by a weak high pressure system over central coasts will move to the east, leaving a ridge over south eastern waters. In the west a warm front will pass over western coasts with an associated low pressure system moving along the coast across the weekend. A strong cold front associated with this low will sweep across coastal waters on Saturday, with a trough following through Sunday, moving inland through Monday.
The coastal forecast hints that wind gusts can be 40 per cent stronger than the forecast, and stronger still in squalls and thunderstorms. Maximum waves can be twice the forecast height.
Happy Friday!
