Adelaide's Wet Weekend: Brace for Cooler Temperatures

0:00Adelaide's kicking off May 1st with some warm vibes, hitting 29 degrees under partly cloudy skies and north to north easterly winds picking up. But that's the calm before the storm. As a front rolls in, turning the weekend wet, windy and way cooler across the city and much of South Australia. Saturday brings showers with a high of 26 degrees, then Sunday drops to 19 degrees with more clouds and likely rain, brisk. With westerlies, making it feel even chillier, Monday holds that pattern at 18 degrees. Showers through the day, winds shifting west to south westerly. Locals are feeling the autumn shift hard, with overnight lows dipping to 10 to 12 degrees midweek, giving that crisp edge everyone knows is. Coming. It's a big change from Friday's mild close to the work week, so grab the jackets and plan indoor hangs if you're out and about. Tuesday and Wednesday, top out in 19 degrees each, with a shower or two possible, easing a bit, but still cloudy.

1:00Thursday turns colder at 16 degrees, possible showers lingering while ag areas see ongoing rain. Sunday and Monday may be thunderstorms near, coasts and ranges. Rainfall stays modest statewide, but watch for 15 to 30 millimeters in spots like the Mount Lofty Ranges or far south coast. Up north east, floods linger around Pudipuda Waterhole in Inaminka, so check roads before traveling. Stay dry out there, Adelaide. Adelaide news today, powered by AI bringing you what matters.
