Summer observations frequently hit 35°C or more — pack a wide-brimmed hat and refillable water bottle. Winter readings sit around 8–16°C with cloudy skies and occasional rain; a light jacket and umbrella are essential.

Why does the observed temperature sometimes differ from what it feels like?
Adelaide’s dry summer heat and winter wind chill mean the “apparent temperature” can be several degrees higher or lower than the observed reading. The live forecast above often includes this feels-like value alongside the standard temperature.
