Your weekend is officially here, and it’s shaping up to be a beautiful one across Adelaide, with sunshine, warm temperatures and light winds creating ideal conditions to get outdoors before a midweek change brings clouds and possible showers.
Today, you can expect mostly sunny skies with a top of 27 degrees. Light winds will become southwesterly during the afternoon before easing into the evening. It’s set to be a classic Adelaide autumn day, perfect for making the most of the sunshine.
Sunny conditions will continue into Saturday, with temperatures again reaching 27 degrees after a mild overnight low of 16 degrees. Winds will remain light, tending southerly before shifting southwest in the afternoon, keeping conditions comfortable throughout the day.
By Sunday, temperatures will climb slightly, reaching a warm 29 degrees under uninterrupted sunshine. Light winds will continue, picking up gently during the day, rounding out a near-perfect weekend of weather.
Settled conditions will hold into the start of next week, with Monday forecast to reach 30 degrees under sunny skies following a minimum of 19 degrees.
A change is expected by Tuesday, bringing partly cloudy skies and the chance of showers, along with a possible afternoon thunderstorm. Temperatures will remain warm, with a maximum of 30 degrees and a minimum of 20 degrees.
Conditions will ease slightly into Wednesday, with mostly sunny skies returning, though there remains a slight chance of a brief shower. Temperatures are expected to reach 27 degrees after a low of 19 degrees.
By Thursday, Adelaide will cool down, with a top of 23 degrees and a minimum of 14 degrees under partly cloudy skies, alongside a slight chance of showers.
Across the state, South Australia’s pastoral districts are seeing sporadic showers, with these conditions expected to extend into northern agricultural areas. Morning fog patches are also likely, particularly inland, with temperatures sitting below average in the north and closer to average in southern regions. Winds will remain generally south to southeasterly, with local afternoon sea breezes.
Flood warnings remain in place for parts of inland South Australia. River level rises are occurring along the Warburton River at Poothapootha, with further rises expected along the lower Cooper Creek around Innamincka as upstream floodwaters continue to move through the system.
Residents and travellers in affected areas are advised to monitor conditions closely, check road access before travelling, and avoid driving through floodwaters.
