Rain to take off edge

-

While the temperatur­e is expected to be scorching, some rain should help take the edge off this weekend.

Thursday temperatur­es will be mostly pleasant with a low of 18°C and a high of 21°C accompanie­d by overcast skies. The downside is residents will have to put up with 36km/h winds blowing in from the northeast. Thankfully, the wind dies down after Thursday and remains mostly calm.

Temperatur­es take a massive spike on Friday, jumping all the way to 35°C. The clouds remain, but thankfully the wind drops considerab­ly down to 14km/h and will now be coming from the southwest.

Saturday remains hot with a maximum of 28°C, but some rain in the afternoon should help compensate for that. Winds remain steady at 14km/h and switches to the southeast.

Rain will continue into Sunday morning but will dry off after lunch-time. Temperatur­es are still hot with the maximum coming in at 27°C. The wind will switch back to the northeast, but will remain the same speed as Friday and Saturday.
