Over the coming days, temperatures are set to soar for millions of Australians.
Summer-like conditions will take hold in two waves. And even though we aren't through the first round of hot temperatures, we are already looking at the second round.The heat that builds in through the end of the weekend and into next week could rival September temperature records in some of our capital cities.Currently, Adelaide is forecasted to see a high of 29C but there is a good chance that temperatures could get up to 32C.
When it comes to Melbourne, the city is forecast to hit 27C on Tuesday but modelling suggests that the temperature could go higher than that. But the daytime high will hit 23.3C on September 12 and likely remain above 20C until the September 20 - that's nine days in a row.
