As Newcastillians prepare for the weekend after enduring a long and arduous week, the countdown to relaxation has officially begun. It’s time to unwind, recharge, and find some respite from the week’s labour in the comfort of our homes or while socialising with friends.
However, what can Newcastle, Ladysmith and Dundee residents expect from the weather over the next three days?
AccuWeather says the upcoming weekend promises more scorching conditions for Newcastle, Ladysmith, and Dundee. However, despite the sweltering heat forecast for these towns, there is some hope on the horizon, with the possibility of rain expected across all three regions.
Nevertheless, let’s take a closer look at the detailed weather forecast for the weekend:
Friday, 18 October 2024:
Newcastle: Expect a partly sunny and hot day, with temperatures reaching a high of 31°. By evening, temperatures will cool down to 13°, with a brief shower expected later in the evening.
Ladysmith: A sweltering and mostly sunny day is predicted, with temperatures peaking at 33°. AccuWeather has warned about the risk of dehydration and heatstroke during strenuous outdoor activities. The evening will bring cooler temperatures, dropping to 14°.

Saturday, 19 October 2024:
Newcastle: Another hot day lies ahead, with temperatures forecast to reach 33°. The evening will see temperatures drop to a cooler 11°.
Ladysmith: The day is expected to begin with cloudy skies, but temperatures will soar to 29° as the sunshine breaks through. By night, the temperature will fall to 13°.
Dundee: A partly sunny and beautiful day is forecast, with temperatures climbing to a high of 26°. Evening temperatures are predicted to drop to 13°.
Sunday, 20 October 2024:
