Picture: Calum Robertson Source: News Limited ADELAIDE is set for a scorching start to February as the Bureau of Meteorology upgraded its forecast predictions for the week ahead. The city can expect no relief for the next seven days - the Bureau on Wednesday revised Saturday's predicted 41C to 42C and Sunday's 40C to 43C. TELL US: How prepared are you for this type of weather? Monday will dip down to 37C before the mercury creeps back up to 40C on Tuesday and 42C on Wednesday, with similar temperatures across much of the state. Senior forecaster Tom Boeck said a brief "weak change" was behind the slightly cooler expected top for Monday. "A fast moving high for Monday will bring us some brief milder south-easterly winds," he said. But the winds are going back to the north again for Tuesday and Wednesday. Mr Boeck said this weekend's hot and dry weather combined with northerly winds posed the highest fire danger days. "It's not looking overly humid - (there is) no perception expected," he said. Despite steadily rising temperatures, relatively light winds are at this stage keeping the fire threat under control but heightened concern remains for the weekend. Mr Boeck said there could be a milder coming to the west of the state on Wednesday, but it was too early to predict. "Whether that will transfer or not will be hard to stay," he said. The hot start to February is well above the month's average daily maximum temperature of 29.4C. Mr Boeck said the seasonal outlook for the next three months showed an "average season for temperature." " (It shows it will be) neither hotter nor colder," he said.
