Southern Australia is set to experience an unexpected surge of warmth this week as temperatures climb ahead of the winter season.
Residents in Adelaide, Melbourne, and Hobart can look forward to a series of days with temperatures exceeding 20 degrees Celsius as the weekend approaches.
In Adelaide, the forecast predicts high temperatures reaching 27 to 28 degrees from today through Sunday, before cooling off once again.
Meanwhile, Melbourne will enjoy slightly cooler conditions, with highs anticipated to reach the mid-20s until the beginning of next week.
Similarly, Hobart is expected to bask in temperatures ranging from the low to mid-20s until Monday.
“South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania are all being impacted by northerlies circulating anti-clockwise around the (high pressure system), dragging warm air southwards from the interior of the continent,” Weatherzone said.
“This pattern will remain in place for several days as the high drifts east.”
Dry conditions in those areas are also expected for the rest of the week.
