In an advisory that has captured the attention of many, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) has cautioned that a significant heatwave will sweep across southeastern Australia in the coming days. “We’re going to see multiple days of temperatures anywhere from six to 16 degrees above average through southeastern parts of the country,” explained a spokesperson, Narramore.

These soaring temperatures have prompted severe heatwave warnings across several regions, including New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, and the Australian Capital Territory. These warnings are expected to be in place until Wednesday, underscoring the seriousness of the situation.
In terms of specific temperature forecasts, coastal regions are bracing for highs ranging from the upper 30s to low 40s. Meanwhile, the inland southeastern areas could experience even more extreme heat, with temperatures climbing into the low to mid-40s and some locations potentially reaching the high 40s.
The BoM has also highlighted the health risks associated with such extreme heat, particularly for vulnerable groups. Older Australians, infants, children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, people with existing medical conditions, and those who are unwell are urged to take extra precautions to stay safe.
On the east coast, the heatwave warnings encompass various regions including the South Coast, Snowy Mountains, and South West Slopes in New South Wales; North East and East Gippsland in Victoria; North East, East Coast, and Midlands in Tasmania. Parts of South Australia, such as the West Coast, Lower Eyre Peninsula, and North West Pastoral, as well as the ACT, are also under alert.
In South Australia, maximum temperatures will be in the high thirties and mid forties, and the heatwave condition is expected to peak mid to late next week. It is expected temperatures will rise to 41C in Adelaide on Wednesday.
