Not even a fortnight after enduring one of the most intense heatwaves on record, South Australia, southern New South Wales and Victoria are set to toast in another wave of extreme heat. It will get very hot very quickly from early next week, with much of the region seeing mid-to-high 30 degree heat on Monday. By Tuesday, large parts of SA, VIC and southern NSW will see the mercury reaching into the 40s, including Adelaide and possibly even parts of Melbourne.

 

A day or two of relief is then likely, at least for coastal locations, as a gusty southerly change sweeps through. Melbourne is set to see just 24 degrees on Wednesday, while Adelaide can look forward to a slightly cooler 33 degrees.
