The live forecast above shows Wingfield’s conditions for the next few hours. This industrial suburb, 12 kilometres north of the Adelaide city centre, sits in a flat coastal plain where sea breezes often shape the afternoon temperature.
What’s the typical weather pattern in Wingfield?
Wingfield’s climate follows the classic Adelaide pattern: hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Summer maximums regularly hit the high 30s Celsius, though a persistent afternoon sea breeze from the Gulf St Vincent can drop the temperature by 5–8 degrees. Winter sees average highs around 15–16°C, with overnight lows near 8°C. The suburb’s postcode is 5013, and its low elevation (roughly 10 metres above sea level) means frost is rare.
How does the location affect local conditions?
Being close to the Port Adelaide estuary, Wingfield often catches a stronger coastal wind than suburbs further inland. This makes it slightly cooler on summer afternoons but can also bring early morning cloud. The area’s industrial zoning means heat from concrete and metal surfaces can raise local temperatures by 1–2 degrees on calm days. For nearby conditions, check the Adelaide Weather page or Australia weather hub for broader patterns.
Does Wingfield get severe weather?
Wingfield can see thunderstorm squalls from the north in summer, but severe storms are less frequent than in the Adelaide Hills. The main risk is heatwave conditions, with several days above 40°C possible. Check Severe Weather Warning pages for updates.
How does Wingfield weather compare to Gawler?
Gawler, 40 kilometres north, runs 2–3°C cooler in summer due to higher elevation. Wingfield’s coastal proximity means slightly higher humidity and more cloud cover, while Gawler sees clearer skies and sharper overnight cooling.
